disregard that " we have removed your email address" message, it is just a marketing ploy ( not a very creative one at that ) pretending to offer subscription to a newsletter...another bit of cunning guerrilla marketing that we see on the IGP from time to time, besides, Turtle has disowned it.

Its holiday time so lots of people are on holiday at the moment. Regards Michael Brennan County Carlow Website: http://goo.gl/67Vce My Laois Page: http://goo.gl/Bn5KE From: cunninghama1@sky.com Sent: Friday, August 02, 2013 4:41 PM To: IRL-CARLOW-admin@rootsweb.com Subject: Mailing List Hi Michael For some strange reason, I have not been receiving any e-mails on the Harlow Blog for about three weeks. Has something gone wrong with the system, as I can't believe no blogs have been sent for this period of time? Kind Regards Tony
Roger, These two men named Maurice Kavanagh are separate individuals. The one executed after 1798 was born and lived in South Carlow. He, at his death, was a relatively young man. The other Maurice who lived in Cape Breton, was much older probably being born in the area of 1682-88, also in South Carlow. I am working on the pedigree for his family and their Carlow relatives and ancestors. This is in itself a very intriguing family with Maurice's first or second cousin dying as a Colonel of the Saxon Guards leaving an estate of 40,000 gold florins in 1761. Thank you for your interest Gary In a message dated 7/27/2013 1:17:54 P.M. Pacific Daylight Time, RNowlan@primus.ca writes: Turtle, Gary, It would appear as if the “Maurice Kavanagh of Bauk” mentioned in the Email below may be related to the Maurice Kavanagh who lived on Cape Breton Island already in the 1700s. Read on! In the history of early Nova Scotia we find that "MAURICE KAVANAGH came with three of his sons (the most noted of them being his son, 'Lawrence', a future Catholic M.P. for Nova Scotia, electyed in 1822) who was at Louisbourg and settled in St. Peter's in 1774.” I also recall reading that this Maurice Kavanagh made his money salvaging what he could from old shipwrecks in the Fort Louisbourg area, ships who would have sunk in the vicinity in connection with the early days of the Fortress and fall of Louisbourg in 1758. During the French colonial days the Fortress commanded the entry into the Gulf of St Lawrence and French Canada. Here is a link to a Wikipedia write-up on the history of the Fortress: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Fortress_of_Louisbourg . I also recall from elsewhere (I can't recall the source off-hand) that some Irishmen from Cape Breton went to Ireland to fight in the Irish Rebellion of 1798. The area of “St. Peter’s” on the south side of Cape Breton had a strong Irish presence already in the mid-1700s, perhaps even during the French colonial days. In particular I know of a “Thomas Nolan” who was working close to St. Peter’s as a [fishing]“ servant” for the Préjean family in 1752 (when a census was taken), at a place called “La Briquerie” [The Brick Works]. I will leave you to mull over any possible family connections crossing the Atlantic. Below are also a few possibly related tidbits.

Turtle, Gary, It would appear as if the “Maurice Kavanagh of Bauk” mentioned in the Email below may be related to the Maurice Kavanagh who lived on Cape Breton Island already in the 1700s. Read on! In the history of early Nova Scotia we find that "MAURICE KAVANAGH came with three of his sons (the most noted of them being his son, 'Lawrence', a future Catholic M.P. for Nova Scotia, electyed in 1822) who was at Louisbourg and settled in St. Peter's in 1774.” I also recall reading that this Maurice Kavanagh made his money salvaging what he could from old shipwrecks in the Fort Louisbourg area, ships who would have sunk in the vicinity in connection with the early days of the Fortress and fall of Louisbourg in 1758. During the French colonial days the Fortress commanded the entry into the Gulf of St Lawrence and French Canada. Here is a link to a Wikipedia write-up on the history of the Fortress: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Fortress_of_Louisbourg . I also recall from elsewhere (I can't recall the source off-hand) that some Irishmen from Cape Breton went to Ireland to fight in the Irish Rebellion of 1798. The area of “St. Peter’s” on the south side of Cape Breton had a strong Irish presence already in the mid-1700s, perhaps even during the French colonial days. In particular I know of a “Thomas Nolan” who was working close to St. Peter’s as a [fishing]“servant” for the Préjean family in 1752 (when a census was taken), at a place called “La Briquerie” [The Brick Works]. I will leave you to mull over any possible family connections crossing the Atlantic. Below are also a few possibly related tidbits.

Laura, Below are a few Macdowell tidbits drawn from my hard drive using a local search. I hope of the information is of use to you. In brief, based upon the tidbits, it seems as if there was a Macdowell presence in Co. Carlow starting in the mid-1700s (a John Macdowell). During the 1798 timeperiod a James Macdowell was a member of the Hackettstown infantry. [RN: I note that a JOHN PRESLEY was also a member of the Hackettstown infantry.] The James Macdowell who was in the Hackettstown infantry in 1798 is likely the same as the one who put his name on a list of Protestants wishing to emigrate from counties Carlow and Wexford in 1817. In the early 1820s (1821-1822) there were at least two Macdowell families in the Bagenalstown area, a David “Davy” Macdowell and family (in Ballinkillen) and a Patrick “Patt” Macdowell and family. In 1825, a Thomas Macdowell was the Governor of the Gaol in Carlow.
