Hello Wexfordonians, does anybody at all have any information about a place called Barntown, which is a smidgen to the west ( about 3 miles ) of Wexford town on the N25, in the old Catholic parish of Glynn, old civil parish of Carrick ( I think ). Have just discovered that my g grandfather, PATRICK WALSH was born there in about 1839 and not, as I had thought in Wexford town itself ( it does pay to listen to your cousins..... ) and so a whole raft of data that I had collected now goes out the window. I know that it has a Pugin church, but not much more. PATRICK moved to Wexford and lived in John Street, where his wife MARY ANNE FURLONG nee ROSSITER lived with her father and mother, JAMES ROSSITER and ANNE DANE. Patrick's sons were; PATRICK, JOHN JOSEPH, and WILLIAM JOSEPH, so I expect that a father's name is somewhere in there. In Griffiths, looking in the civil parish of Carrick, I found one JAMES WALSH in Ballygoman, which seems to be the nearest to Barntown, and JOHN WALSH in Shelmaliere Commons, Stonybatter, Carricklawn and Coolcots. Can anyone tell me where Stonybatter is? The only JOSEPH was in Rosslare - and there was a PATRICK in Clonard Little in the parish of St Peters. Doing all this ancestor chasing is the best way to going bonkers that I know of..... Slan, Mary
