I tried to post a message earlier today to Robert Sliger. It is in this thread somewhere. Several years ago I visited in Co Kilkenny, where the Baldwin name was described as "not very popular around here." (Was that their way of saying "not very common" or was their some reason not to like the Baldwins????) Found no Baldwins in Kilkenny; however, their remains numerous ones in Co Waterford and around Cork. Got on to some interesting trails in one of the big libraries in Dublin but ran out of time.

Our James Baldwin had a son John, b 1772 in Bedford Co, VA. The next child was a daughter. Our ancestor is said to have come from Co Kilkenny, Ireland. Tradition/various reports says our James had a brother John. James' service with the colonial forces in the revolutionary war seems rather well attested. His brother John is said to have remained loyal to the crown and settled in Ontario. I have met at least two Canadians whose story agrees with mine and are said to have descended from John. [Perhaps?? John had a son in New Jersey??] Charles Baldwin

A good place for some quick research would be Roy Barnard's A FEW DESCENDANTS OF JAMES BALDWIN AND ELIZABETH FERRELL. I think I have had my copy for around 15 years or so. You should be able to find it in many major geneaology collections. When/where was Margaret born? I could share some quick info from Barnard that may help. I have been researching my family with varying degrees of earnestness for around twenty years. With James and Elizabeth Baldwin I have consistently hit a deadend. Several years ago my wife and I travelled in County Kilkenny (where James was born). Folks there said Baldwin was not a "popular" name in the county. (Did they mean "common" or was there some reason not to like Baldwins?) Baldwin was a much more common name next door in County Waterford and was also known in County Cork. I began to come across some intruiging possible leads in official collections in Dublin when I ran out of time and had to move on. Most of the Baldwins in the US seem to have come here from England and Wales. With little dispute our ancestor seems to have come from Ireland, where he is persistently said to have been born in Co Kilkenny. He came to the colonies (why and how unknown to my knowledge). His service in the Revolutionary War seems uncontested by DAR folks. (A trip to their collection in DC would also prove helpful.) Baldwin as given and surname is mostly and eventually a Norman name. As a given and surname it also shows up in Luxembourg and Germany (Balduin) and Italy (Baldovino). Except for the Flemish/Norman connection no clear bloodline seems likely. [As a given name there was a Prince Archbishop in Trier, Germany (where once we stayed at Hotel Balduin on Balduinplatz) and a medieval bishop in Cantebury (memorialized in stained glass in the cathedral.] Don't know which war Judith Baldwin referred to, since I did not see the earlier message. If James' ancestry was English or Norman English they could have gone to southeastern Ireland with the forces of Oliver Cromwell OR Henry VIII. If they were more directly Normal they could have come around the time of William the Conqueror, etc. (Of course, at that time few but nobility or other influential persons had family names as such. And if our ancestry were such we would probably be running across that sooner, no? Only recently have I begun to hear of Mary Gore, purported mother of James. Don't have a lot to go on. Hope to learn more. Elizabeth Ferrell is said to have been born near Dublin OR near Londonderry. Ferrell (in its various spellings) was one of the traditional classic Irish names and about as common as Jones or Williams in the US. Some sources claim her father a sea captain and she a sometime passenger on his ship. Others identify her as having come to the colonies as an indentured servant or some such. She and James are said to have been married around 1772 on these shores. He is said to have died and was buried around the turn of the century in Tazewell (southwestern VA); she lived past him and was said to have been buried among family in Sneedville, TN. (Her grandson Nicolas inter alia settled for several generations around Tazewell (eastern TN). Today I know of no Baldwins yet living in Claiborne Co, TN.

My aunt and uncle went to Ireland a few years ago, but nothing could be found on James or Elizabeth, because of the fires during the war mentioned in one of the above messages. It has been said that James mother was Mary Ann Gore, but it has not been proven, to my knowledge. The name Gore, I think is English, and Make me wonder if James was from England and went to Ireland when the war began, siding with the Irish in the war??? My line from James and Elizabeth comes down from John and Elizabeth Newberry BAldwin to son John Milton and Elizabeth Seale Baldwin to John and (2nd wife) Margaret Howard Baldwin to son Robert and Eliza King Baldwin - my gr grandparents.

I know this isn't the "standard inquiry" for folks on the list but I will be going to Kilkenny City in August with my family and the last time I was there I stayed at a hotel. The tour groups coming and going in the middle of the night kept me awake most nights so I am appealing for help from those of you familiar with Kilkenny City Bed & Breakfast places for input.

Hi Anne, This isn't meant as criticism, but rather to be helpful. Your message doesn't give anyone on the list much information to work from to help you. Since you sent the message to the Kilkenny list, I am guessing you know one or the other or both of your relatives came from Kilkenny County. Which one? When? Do you have an approximate date of birth or age for either or both? Do you have any idea what town or area in Kilkenny County they may have come from? If one of them came from another county, which county and which person? The more information you can give to people on the list, the more likely it is of your receiving help or at least a lead to continue your search.
