Brady - Logan - Sterrett: Dr. John Brady, was born at Rathfriland, County Down, Ireland and went to Philadelphia, USA where he worked for several years before attending a medical school. Immediately after receiving his diploma in medicine, in about 1857, he came to Barnesville, New Brunswick, Canada on the urging of his schoolmate from Ireland, the Rev. J. R. Lawson, who had settled here ten years before him. Dr. Brady’s wife was Sarah Sterrett, of Philadelphia. He died on June 9th, 1887, at Barnesville,. His daughter Margaret married W. Bliss Logan of Moncton. She died on May 14, 1950 and is buried in Elmwood Cemetery in Moncton. Dr. Brady’s mother-in-law, Esther Sterrett, may have been born in County Donegal, emigrated to Saint John in 1821 and then moved to Philadelphia.
Seeking information on Dr. Brady and his family. Would also like very much to have a picture of him and members of his family. Need obituary for Margaret Logan.
