Im trying to track a Nugent family who emigrated from Rathgormuck
Co.Waterford to Canada in the early 1800s.

The only information I have is that John Nugent (d.o.b. approx. 1850) a
brother of my greatgrandmother went to live with his fathers brother
(Christian name unknown) and family in Canada about 1867. John died during
his first winter there. I have no idea where in Canada they lived.

Johns parents were Patrick Nugent (emigrated to Australia in 1867), and
Ellen O'Gorman (who never left Ireland).

Johns grandparents were John Nugent and Catherine Curry. Apart from the
usual Irish Christian names, this Nugent family uses the relatively uncommon
names of Richard and David.

Any information about the family and descendants, or how to track down a
Death Certificate for John, would be greatly appreciated.
