I have researched my Corey ancestors for the last ten years and have a great deal of information. But these two have me stumped: My ggf, Malcolm Corey and his son, Frank Corey, my grandfather.

Malcolm was the son of Wm. Corey and Elizabeth McDonald. Malcolm was born in 1840 in NB. He married Bessie Ryan, an Irish immigrant. They had seven children, including Frank. Malcolm left Bessie in 1875 and married Anniebelle Carvelle in Houlton ME. They returned to NB. My questions are these: (1) did Malcolm have other children during his second marriage; (2) if so, what is the parentage, birth and death of Anniebelle Carvelle; (3) when and (4) where did Malcolm die; where is he buried?

Frank was b. in 1874 at Queensbury Parish. He married Maggie Pickard in 1904. They had two sons, Howard and Frankllin. Franklin was my father. Family oral history has Frank dying of consumption when his sons were young. Others have said he was married before Maggie and he left her and married again. My questions are these: (1) how many times was Frank married and to whom; (2) when and where did Frank die, where is he buried?

I have searched endlessly to answer these questions, including research in Maine, but to no avail. If you can answer them for me I would be ever grateful.
