Researchers of the Haskins
surname in Upper Canada

These pages are an attempt to find the origins and dispersal of decendants for the various Haskins family/families that came to Upper Canada in the late 1700's from the northern United States. Nicholas Haskins and his son Joseph settled in Wolford Township, Grenville County, Ontario - they are my ancestral line so that is where I have started.

The information has been gathered from wherever I came across the Haskins surname relative to Canada for the time period involved (surname bulletin boards, genealogical newsletters, census records, IGI etc)

lst generation
Haskins, Nicholas, (spouse unknown) late 1700's, USA to Upper Canada

2nd generation
Haskins, Joseph, (Elizabeth) late 1700's, USA to Wolford Twp, Grenville Co, Ont
Haskins, Abial, (Judah CAREY) late 1700's, USA to Augusta Twp, Grenville Co, Ont

3rd generation
Haskins, Gideon, (Elizabeth KRONK) late 1700's, USA to Ontario
Haskins, Nicholas, (Hannah) late 1700's, USA to Wolford Twp, Grenville Co, Ont
Haskins, Joseph, Jr, (Lucy EDMUNDS) late 1700's, USA to Wolford Twp, Grenville Co, Ont
Haskins, Nicholas, (Elizabeth LAKE, Susannah SMITH) late 1700's, USA to Ontario to Geauga Co, Ohio (bet 1820-35)
Haskins, David, (Deidamina STEVENS) late 1700's, VT. to Bastard Twp, Leeds Co, Ont
Haskins, Carey, (Eunice STEVENS) late 1700's, USA to South Crosby Twp, Leeds Co, Ont

4th generation
Haskins, Anson, (Margaret) born 1804, Wolford Twp, Grenville Co,
Haskins, Joseph, (Margaret THURLOW) born 1814, Ontario
Haskins, Uriah, (Lydia LAWRENCE) born 1800, Bastard Twp, Leeds Co, Ont
Haskins, Ira, (Mary Ann CHEETAM) born 1811, Leeds Co, Ont?
Haskins, Alpheus, (Elizabeth) born 1815, South Crosby Twp, Leeds Co, Ont

First Generation

**Nicholas Haskins, Sr.**
I am 'presuming' for the time being that Joseph Haskins and Abial Haskins may be related in some way - perhaps even brothers.
The 2 families came to the same region of Upper Canada with the arrival of the loyalists about the same time in the late 1700's -
there has been no positive proof either way as to the origins in the USA of the various Haskins families.
