 General Notes:
James and wife Anne Ardell and several children emigrated from Tipperary in 1837-38, and located in Ernesttown, near Kingston, Ontario, for a few years, before moving on to Biddulph Twp. north of London, Ont.. James was killed here in an accident while helping to build a house for a neighbour, Henry Hodgins, a recent arrival from Tipperary. James is known to have been a brother of either William Dagg (1796-1864), or William's
wife Elizabeth Dagg (1808-1855), who were cousins.
