I recently recorded the attestation of the baptism of John Halpin at Wicklow Town Church of Ireland that took place on 3rd July 1805. The attestation is dated March 1826 and is co-signed by JOSEPH SUTTON, church warden. In Wicklow Town, Dr James Henry Halpin (c.1861-1916), a son of Dr George Halbert Halpin and his wife Eliza Bradley, I have recorded as marrying in 1898 ADELAIDE MAUD SUTTON. In the 1901 Census, in the household of Dr James and Adelaide Halpin was living Martha Florence Eatton (sic), unmarried, who is described there as Dr Halpin's sister in law. I think the implication of this is that Adelaide's maiden name had been Eatton (or, I think, Eaton) and that she had been married previously to a Sutton and presumably was widowed. James was nearly 37 when he married Adelaide. The birthplace of both Adelaide and Martha is recorded as Wexford. Did Adelaide Eaton marry one of your Suttons? Why were the children of Richard Sutton Painter named Sutton? Could he have been Richard Sutton, painter? Could the Joseph Sutton (mature in 1826) be a progenitor? The records of Wicklow Church of Ireland are reasonably complete.

Cara, What about the very large twinkle when they named TWO towns in Kilkenny the same! Muckalee and Muckally (which just for fun became Muckalee also) So anyone researching their family and finds them in Mucklee can get very badly led astray (hands up to that one.)

Their son James SUTTON (born Glencree, Wicklow, Ireland) married Frances ELLIS (born About 1830 Oldbolies, County Wicklow, Ireland), They were married Aug 1850 Enniskerry? And emigrated to Australia sailing from Liverpool 25 Jun 1852 on the Medina with their infant daughter, Honorah born 1851 (my G grandmother). Other children of William and Mary SUTTON nee KROENER who came to Australia were: Anthony SUTTON born 14 APR 1810 Glencree, Wicklow, Ireland died Mount Gambier, South Australia, Australia. John SUTTON born JUN 1821 Glencree, Wicklow, Ireland died Mount Gambier, South Australia, Australia. Honorah SUTTON born 1826 Glencree, Wicklow, Ireland died Australia?

Which makes his parents Nicholas Fitzpatrick and Eliza Byrne. So in 1867 they resided at Newbridge also Known as Avoca, Ovaco in 1875 they were living at Ashford when they had Elizabeth 11/5/1875 and Thomas was born at Dunganstown 22/8/1869 So they were moving around following the work no doubt.

I have found my grandmother and her parents in 1901. There was a brother I didn't know about but was unable to trace him or his parents in 1911. The details I have are: Francis Byrne, 60, Head, RC Mary Byrne, 62, his wife, RC - maiden name Carton Patrick Byrne, 15, son, RC Annah (Anna) Byrne, 12, daughter, RC They were living in house no 22 Vevay Road Eastside (Bray, Wicklow) Anna was found in service on the 1911 census but no sign of parents or brother. Parents may have died and/or emmigrated as could son ...... and could there have been other siblings? I'm pretty sure they were alive when my mother was born in Bray Head in 1919. Where do I go from here? TIA. Anna

After 15 years of trying to find the names of my ancestors, I got a break! Now looking to find: Martin Connor and his wife Mary Gafney (possibly Gaffney) were both born in Ireland. They had a son, also named Martin, who was born in 1837 in Ireland. Martin Jr turned up as a copper miner in Ontonagon, MI, USA in 1860 US Census. Found again in Hudson MI, USA in 1880 Census. Died 1899 in Hudson, MI. Have been unable to find Martin & Mary anywhere. Any ideas? Dan Connors

Hi Anna If you can contact me off list with any other " Nelson"  Brown details I can do some digging. The local Genealogy Group has the Electoral Rolls ( NZ had elections for Government in 1984& 1987) plus the local telephone books around that time so that will be a good start.   Kevin   mulryans579@yahoo.com   I had family in Nelson as my aunt Hannah Owen visited Brown family in  1985.  There is also a Westwood in the family, who married one of my grandfather,  Frederick Gordon Brown's siblings.  I'm currently trying to find out about  the Nelson connection.  I have a photograph taken in Tom Brown's house in  Nelson and the picture shows Tom Brown, Gordon Brown and a son of Gordon Brown,  his wife and two children.  ------------------------------- To unsubscribe from the list, please send an email to IRL-WICKLOW-request@rootsweb.com with the word 'unsubscribe' without the quotes in the subject and the body of the message

Dunlavin is about 45k NW of Avoca, so probably not a likely connection, but thought I'd drop you a line anyway. Thanks sooooooooooo much Pauline. I made a note of that. The sad thing is that James & Mary Doyle is such a common set of names in Wicklow. I feel this family is from the Dunlavin area. James was listed as a farmer on Simon's marriage cert. The name SIMON is not very common in Catholic Ireland, but there seems to have been a few in the Dunlavin area and so it must have been a family name passed down through generations. I'm hoping the SIMON part will ring some bells, or help me connect with somebody. THANKS AGAIN!! Hilda

Thank you Cara.....there is definitely some interesting possibilities in that lot. I suspect that there is a Michael Conway and Margaret Kavanagh marriage in my tree but not until the late 1820's I think. I would be interested in the children of 4 if you have something in your registers. Thank you so much for your efforts in looking them up for me.

Hi all, Just checking if anyone has the surname CONWAY in their tree. Would love to hear from you if you do. Cheers, Kerry. Australia.

.I have successfully found my grandmother, Anna Byrne in 1901 at house 22 in Vevay Road Eastside in Bray with her parents Francis Byrne and Mary Carton and brother Patrick. On attempting to finding the family in 1911, the closest I can find is a Forde family at house 3 in Newtown Vevay (Bray no 3). The family includes Patrick Byrne aged 23 (15 in 1901). The family consists of Catherine Forde, 71, head, Annie Forde, 30, daughter, Dill Doyle, 75, brother, William Byrne, 26, grandson, Patrick Byrne, 25, grandson and Richard Clifton, 10, grandson. If this Patrick Byrne is my grandmother's brother, then I have gone a long way to finding the missing side of the family in one fell swoop. Perhaps someone already knows this family and could confirm or otherwise Patrick's parentage. TIA Anna Thomas

Wow! The 1901 Census is amazing! I have spent YEARS wondering about my Henry Peter Smith. All I knew was Summerhill, Wicklow Co., and the year he was born 1890. I plugged that info into their 1901 search engine and, with some refined searching, was so surprised to see his whole family appear, with the name of his parents. He was such an exceptional man (I know we all feel that way about our people). See him at my website, http://freepages.history.rootsweb.ancestry.com/~taleese/hpsmith/ Wonderful work getting those census reports online! >Tanya in USA
