Happy New Year Cathy, I don't want to jump in on your request to Keith, but I think this info is what you might want... John Woodbyrne Married Margaret Doyle the 2nd of February 1845 in the Kilanerin Church. Witnesses were Gregory Doyle and Mary Doyle. I also have the Baptismal information (names, dates, Godparents) for 7 or 8 children, if you'd like them. I have several other Wexford Woodbyrnes and a few Wicklow Woodbyrnes, if you're interested. Regards, Peggy Leonard You wrote: Dear Keith, Would you mind if I asked you to look in the "Families of Co. Wexford" for my family name? Woodbyrne, also Woodburn(e). They were in the Gorey area: townlands were Lacken (Lackan), Bolacreen (no longer in existence). Other Woodbyrnes were at Pallas, and Annagh. My grt grandfather was born at Lacken in Jan. 1846, firstborn of John Woodbyrne and Margaret Doyle. Children are all baptized at St. Michaels in Gorey. Some of the earlier church records are at the R.C. church at Kilanerin. Earlier Woodburns (also Woodburne) were located in Co. Wicklow (only a few miles away), in Ballinaclash, and Ballymoney, and Bally kine. Many are buried in the old cemetery at Whaley Abbey, Co. Wicklow. Many thanks in advance for your time spent. Wishing you a very Happy New Year in 2011. Cathy Woodburn, Ontario, Canada
