    3. Hoping there is someone in Waterford County, Ireland able to help me with this family. I found this monument information online and maybe someone else might connect to this family. My Jane English b. 1777 in Ireland was the daughter of Andrew English of Littlebridge, Waterford County, Ireland. Known from the marriage of Jane English to Richard Bullock July 22 1797 and witnessed by her brother, Christopher English. In 1799 Richard Bullock (with the 41st afoot regiment) came to Canada. Here is the information I have received: Monumental Inscriptions at AFFANE, Co. WATERFORD. Transcribed (AUGUST, 1949) BY THE REV. WALLACE CLARE, F.R.S.A., F.I.G.R.S. http://sites.netscape.net/joepowerjoe/AffaneGravestones.htm ENGLISH. Underneath this tomb are deposited the remains of Andrew English, Esq., late of Littlebridge, who departed this life on the 24th day of January, 1792, in the 66th year of his age. Also lieth here the body of. . . . English his wife, daughter of Richard Musgrave, Esq. late of Salterbridge. She died on the . . . day of July, 1798, aged 70 years. And the marriage record of Jane English: Christopher English of the Waterford Regiment, he declares, "that Jane English, his sister, was married in the parish church, Affane, County of Waterford, on or about the 22nd of July, 1797, to Richard Bullock, then lieutenant in his Majesty's Foot, and later a captain in said regiment, and that his said sister accompanied her husband, Captain Richard Bullock, with the 41st Regiment to Canada in 1800, where he died.." Another affidavit found among the family papers sets forth the following facts with reference to the Pioneer and his second marriage. It reads as follows: "Sir Christopher F. Musgrove of Yongal in the County of Cork, Baronet, this day made oath before me, that on or about the 22nd day of July, in the year 1797, he was present at the parish church at Affane, in the County of Waterford, at the marriage of Richard Bullock, quartermaster and lieutenant in His Majesty's Forty-first of foot and then at Cappoquin in said county, with Jane English, daughter of Andrew English, of Littlebridge in said county of Wateford." Any help would be greatly appreciated. Merriam White merriam@kc.rr.com Missouri USA
