English/Protestant "colonists" who rented land from Sir Arthur Shaen in the Barony of Erris. First located in Bangor, Erris, later moved to a home near LEAM(e) Lough on the Mullet. One branch married into the Bingham family -- Elizabeth. Her brother Anthony became Catholic, was disinherited, died in 1843, at which time his home/ land near LEAM was given to his other sister, Isabella Nash Short. Anthony's widow & family moved to a small farm on the property of Bingham Castle/ Estate. Eventually, all but 1 child (Edward) and the mother emigrated to USA in 1861. Any and all info is greatly appreciated! Important Note: The author of this message may not be subscribed to this list.
