Anyone have any information on the name "Whitsitt" or Whiteside? Have many stories of but nothing to back up. Joseph Whitsitt came to Canada thru Rhode Island from Rosslea 1830-40.

Hi Patrick: You are lucky to have such a book. Did you just purchase it and do you know where I can get one. My cousins live in Kinawley parish and go to St. Nailes Church. My grandmother was baptised in St. Marys church of Kinawley. I have been there to Mass through the years also on visits to Ireland. I would appreciate any info. Thanks. A long lost Maguire-McManus JoAnn

Bonnie, Would you kindly look for OVENS. Thank you, Bill

hello bonnie- how about the name McGAVERN/MCGOVERN/MAGAURAN? thanks so much. heidi [email protected]

Bonnie Thank You -- Interesting information...

KIERNAN. see McKernan p 439 McKERNAN (MacTiarnáin) : also Kernan, Kiernan, McTernan, McTiernan, Tiernan, Ternan. This family in Fermanagh descends either from the Mac Thighearnáins who were chiefs of Tullyhunco, Co. Cavan - an important branch of the O'Rourkes from 1250 - 1550 - or from an East Roscommon sept or from the McKernans of Fermanagh. The McKernans of Fermanagh descended from Tiarnán, brother of Odhar, from whom the Maguires originated. They were called the McKernan or Mac Thighearnáin Chlainne Fheargail. Their kingdom was in 'Coole Mac Kernan', probably centred at Lisnarick. They were victims of the Maguire expansion. After the Penal days they became prominent businessmen in Enniskillen. James Kernan was a brewer there in 1779. In 1774 Edward Kernan was appointed on an Enniskillen committee to help the poor. As early as 1757 this Edward was an agent for Martgetson Armar of the Castlecoole estate, to collect for meal for the poor. We have mentioned the other outstanding members of the family - James, Randal, the lawyer, and Edward, the bishop in chapters fifteem, twenty and twenty-one. SWANZEY - no mention. However this doesn't mean that they weren't there. It is explained that "It would be impossible to deal with every family that came with the Plantation and which occurs today. I have selected families which are numerous today . . ."

Bonnie, thanks for checking for me. My Irish ancestors seem to have come into Ireland without a trace and left the same way. Well, I have a pretty good idea when they left, but so far it hasn't helped me any. Will keep trying though. Carol

Hello to the List, I have just received a tape from a "new found cousin" and want to confirm some information. In this tape he mentions that a Miss ROBINSON, owned and operated a jewellery store called "Tom Hare's Jewellery in Enniskillen County Fermanagh." When my cousin visited the store in 1983, he was told that the owner had passed away 5 years earlier, he didn't ask for any other information. What I am looking for is an obit for this lady, I am not sure of her first name but I do know her last name was Robinson and she never married. I was hoping that someone out there lives near the store and could contact me. Any suggestions or ideas on how to get this obit or any articles on the store or it's owner would be wonderful. Thanks in advance, Tracy in Toronto Canada

At the beginning of the 1641 Wars, as many as 260 of them were enlisted in the forces of Sir William Cole. All the Johnstons came to Fermanagh as tenants from Scotland. Some of them came from Annandale, Nisdale, and Dumfries in the south of Scotland, and their ancestors were also the ancestors of the Marquis of Annandale. Others came from the north of Scotland and their ancestor Dónal Bán, King of Scotland, who became a Christian in 1093. Various clans of Johnstons, then, came to Fermanagh. Two branches descended from Watty Roe (Walter) Johnston who was said to have pursued Philip O'Reilly from Enniskillen to Maguiresbridge in the early 1600s. Watty had a mere twelve men against O'Reilly's 1,500. "Watty Rua 'sa dhá bhuinéad déag, I ndiaidh Pilib Mhic Aodha 'sa chúig chéad déag.' Watty's descendants settled at Magherameenagh and the last of them was Captain James Johnston who was killed at Suvla Bay during World War I. More of Watty's kin had their house at Kilmore. Another Johnston family in Lurg was centred in Ederney. In Magherasteffany James Johnston became famous as the lieutenant of the horse in King William's army. He established himself at Snowhill, Lisbellaw. His ancestors were said to be the McDonnell Kings of Scotland. In Magheraboy two Johnston clans of note appeared. On the Dunbar estate the Johnstons of Aghamuldowney became prominent and they later purchased lands in Leitrim. At Gannan, also in Magheraboy, the family of Robert Johnston assumed importance. ------------------------------------ No mention of DONALDSON.

----- Original Message ----- From: "Kerrie" <[email protected]> To: <[email protected]> Sent: Friday, February 08, 2002 2:40 AM Subject: [FERMANAGH] To Bonnie Still need lookups in The Fermanagh Story? Dear Kerrie, You know not what you ask when you ask for 'Archdale'! Many paragraphs, I will send as much as it has though but will have to leave it till this evening. I will start with Rutledge which is brief. Both in British Families chapter: p 464 RUTLEDGE This is an English family which originated in Rutledge. Simon Rutledge was a tenant with Cole in Tirkennedy. There were 60 voters in 1962. p 447 ARCHDALE also Archdall. Although represented by only a handful of voters in the county today, theArchdales have been one of Fermanagh's premier families since the days of the Plantation. Their name appears as one of the families of Staffordshire during the Wars of The Roses. In the 1530s a John Archdale was bailiff of Stafford Borough. His second son, Martin, became a merchant in the parish of Barking-by-the Tower, London, and he also bought a number of estates. Martin's eldest son, John, was born in 1578 and became master of Abbott's Hall, Darsham. He sold this estate and came to Ireland, having obtained a grant of Manor Archdale in the Ulster Plantation, dated July 13, 1612. He reached Fermanagh in 1614 and thus began the great Archdale family in the county. John built Castle Archdale in 1617 and added to his estate considerably, by purchasing land from some of the other planters. He was high-sheriff of Fermanagh in 1616 and died in 1621. ------------------------------------------- I will have to leave it there and return this evening. Bonnie
