Thank you for all your hard work Cara. I believe the Joshua Holt with wife Elizabeth you seek is the Joshua Holt (born about 1807) who was living in County Wicklow in 1836 and by 1855 was living in Dublin Ireland. This Joshua was a carpenter and he married Eliza Thompson. In 1836 they had a son Joseph Holt. This may be the Joshua and Eliza living at Louds Court and then Kevin St who were the parents of John Holt c 20/7/1843 (of Louds Court) d 1/4/1844 (Kevin St), and Isabella c 20/9/1846 of 32 Kevin St Cross? Bernadette Holt and I have researched Holts of Ireland and our findings have led to us producing a list of Holt individuals with all the factual details about them we know. We've also included our thoughts on possible connections to them and have worded these in question form. Our Holt Ancestors list can be found at www.joseph-holt.org but first you have to sign in with your e-mail address. Once you have access to the full website you can access all the chats going back to 2007. The link to the Holt Ancestors list is right at the bottom of the first page. There is a lot more about Joseph b 1836 and his descendants on this list under the heading Joseph (Lithgow NSW Aus). Cheers Carole

Dear Listers these are Church of Ireland people I am trying to locate wives maiden names for, it reads (Hopefully) FATHER/ SURNAME/ MOTHER/ Time Frame 1834-1838. If anyone can assist with the maiden name of any of these wives and their source please, I would be grateful, and in the end you as the listers will gain from further input from myself. This is MY FIRST list and over the coming weeks, months or whatever as time permits I will be adding more of these kind of lists and asking most likely the same question what was the wife's maiden name. Please note the time frame, because I am aware of persons having same surnames, marrying later with same Christian names of wife........ Does not make it easy as we all know when trying to sort things out. Thankyou for your help and I hope in the end some of this can be joined together to assist the people assisting me.

Seeking information related to my 2nd great grandparents WILLIAM FOX and SARAH WILLIAMS: WILLIAM FOX born circa 1805 location unknown. About 1829 he married SARAH WILLIAMS who is believed to be the Sarah baptised 9 Jan 1809 in Wicklow Parish COI (her parents were JAMES and MARY WILLIAMS). A WILLIAM FOX is listed in Griffith's 1854 Valuation of Wicklow at Ballybla in Killiskey Parish; this might be him. William and Sarah had at least 7 children Francis(1830), Margaret(1832), Mary(1834), ROBERT(1836) my greatgrandfather, William(1838), Joseph(1840) and Sarah(1843). With exception of Francis- of whom I have no documented birth or baptismal info- all of these children were baptised in Wicklow St. Patrick's RC Church. Baptismal sponsors were mostly members of FOX family but include a HEALY, BRITT and KATE WILLIAMS. Info re their son ROBERT FOX (1836). This from the civil registration certificate: ROBERT FOX married MARY BRIEN/BRYAN on 23 January 1869 in the RC Chapel of Bray&Rathmichael. His residence was Ballinapark (Rathnew) and hers Ashford. His father's occupation is steward and her father JAMES BRYAN is a laborer. Marriage is also recorded in Wicklow St Patrick's RC Church as taking place in Bray. Robert and Mary had at least 8 children: Arthur(1896-Ballinea, Ashford), Robert(1872-Ashford), James(1873-Ashford), WILLIAM FRANCIS(1875-Tinakilly) my grandfather, Patrick(1878-Ballyteskin, Wicklow), Thomas(1880-Ashford), Mary(1882-Ballinteskin, Wicklow) and Sarah(1883-Ballinteskin, Wicklow). All of these children were baptised at either Wicklow St. Patrick's or Ashford RC church. A JOHN WILLIAMS was baptismal sponsor of James in 1873. Except for Patrick all members of this family left Ireland for the USA between 1893 and 1901. No info on Patrick's fate. My 2nd ggf WILLIAM FOX's occupation was also listed as land steward on the marriage registration certicate of son Francis. My ggf ROBERT FOX is recorded in Ashford RC Church record as witness on 26 Nov 1871 to the marriage of JOHN WILLIAMS of Tinakelly to MARY BEHAN. John is probably the baptismal sponsor of Robert's son James. In interest of brevity I have provided data only in my direct FOX line. Listers interested in other Foxes mentioned above ask and I will provide what I have. William Fox San Diego, CA, USA
Looking for more information on Daniel Doyle. Resided in Brook, Arklow Religion: ROMAN CATHOLIC He was a Fisherman (stated on his son's Thomas' birth cert) and as a Seaman (as stated on Thomas' NZ marriage cert) Daniel married Esther Phillips..... I have a photocopy Thomas' Eire birth certificate and his NZ marriage certificate: Thomas Doyle Born: 26 September 1888, Brook, Arklow Birth cert number at top left of page R 173. Date on the birth cert (at bottom left of the page) 16th October 1947 A sentence under the main table of birth cert info states ''I hereby certify that the foregoing is a true copy of the entry No. 362 in the register book of birth in my office the General Register... ('my office' phrase has been crossed out and the rest is cut off the photocopy) Thomas will have a number of siblings, 1 named Daniel I think.

I'm researching the Ashworth family of County Wicklow. I have a lot of data and am trying to connect all the pieces David Ashworth was born in Wicklow Town in 1785 and died 16 Nov 1846 in Meigs County Ohio USA. His parents were James and Mary Ashworth. I'm still not certain who James' parents were or Mary's maiden name. They were members of the Church of Ireland. There was a large family of Ashworths in Rathdrum. The earliest records are baptisms in the 1730s showing David & Susannah Ashworth and John & Mary Ashworth in Rathdrum. I can't find any records to exactly figure out how everyone, especially James, are related. David's father, James Ashworth (b 1759 - 1844) and his family departed Dublin for the US on 19 Jun 1812 (the day after the US declared war on Great Britain, beginning the War of 1812). On 17 July 1812, their ship was boarded by the US Navy as it approached the US coast flying a British flag and was escorted to Connecticut. The passenger manifest shows that James' occupation was a weaver. Other Ashworths listed on the manifest are: Mary (50), Thomas (20), Anne (18), John (24), Catherine (21), James (no age). Not included on the manifest is James' son, David, who married Frances Dixon in Elizabeth NJ in November of 1812. He likely arrived on a separate ship. We're not sure what happened to John (there's no record of him in NJ or Ohio) and if Catherine and James are his wife and son or James' children. There's no records in Co Wicklow that match. The Ashworths first settled outside Elizabeth NJ before heading west to Meigs County Ohio in 1816. David and his brother Thomas had large families in Meigs. The Anne Ashworth listed in the passenger manifest is likely Nancy Ashworth who married Issac Foster (also from Wicklow) in Ohio. Once emigration resumed from Ireland in 1816, many other families from Co Wicklow joined the Ashworths in Meigs County Ohio, including the Radford, Carleton, Byrne, Saul, Behan, Jenkinson and Martin families.

On Dec 4, Dennis Carroll said: "Roll Call Matt Carroll,Ann(e)Bryn (Burn, Burns, Byrne),Whalen, From the FitzWilliams estates at Kilabeg also the Hillbrook area and the Clonmore Parish area of Carlow. They were RC and a lot emigrated just prior to the famine to Ontario Canada. They were on an 1839 accounting of the Fitzwilliam estate in Killinure-Kilabeg estate. " I'm at the other end trying to find Whalen connection back to Ireland. Here's my end: James Whalen, b Jul 1839 in Ireland, appears 1861 Ontario, Greenock, Bruce, Ontario, Canada census. Father is William Whelan born Wicklow, about 1801. Mother Margaret Duddy, b about 1811. James' brother Michael born Sep 29, 1844, also in ireland. Estimate James and Michael emigrated to Canada in 1850. All four parties died in Ontario. Have much more. Any way we can connect these two together? And now a true story. My wife's maiden name is Whalen. Her brother was about to marry a lady named Wirth. This lady advised she had an aunt who's maiden name was Whalen--maybe there is a connection? I contact this aunt in the northern lower peninsula of Michigan and discover she is a real genealogist (you know, the kind that goes to real documents and searches, or goes to cemeteries, or record locations--not like me who just search on the internet). Anyway, this lady has never computerized her records, but has a lot, along with the original documentation I made my standard offer: send me everything and I'll upload it and return it to you within two weeks with a book (provided by the genealogy software). She sends me the records and I find an interesting story about her grandfather, who was injured in the civil war. He had been shot twice, and was disputing a war department pension he was getting for getting wounded. The War department was paying him for two wounds in one le! g, while he actually had one wound in each leg. Validating that would increase his monthly pension. In order to validate the claim, he had to send in letters from three different people who would vouch for the fact that he had been wounded in both letters. The lady had copies of the letters. One was signed by my great grandfather, who lived in Pennsylvania. I am completely unrelated to the grandfather or the aunt! Merry Christmas! Dan

Remember to add in religion, and if you know if they died in Ireland, and where they lived if known.

I?m looking for Edward Redmond born about 1835, a mariner, and son of James Redmond, also a mariner. It is possible that he died at sea about 1884. I don?t really know much more about him but he could come from Arklow or Dublin and could have a brother, Francis. A lot of possibles but I would really love to find him as he is my great grandfather.

Just wondering...where are you in your search for Matt Carroll, Anne Byrne (w/spelling variations) and Whalen? Your roll call posting doesn't say exactly what info you seek...but, just in case, I'll pass along this website (altho you probably already know of it) http://www.bytown.net/ Immigration and Settlement in Eastern Ontario and Western Quebec, Canada, in the 1800's ----- Original Message ----- From: "Carroll, Dennis" <CarrolD@Amtrak.com> To: <irl-wicklow@rootsweb.com> Sent: Sunday, December 04, 2011 12:27 PM > Roll Call > Matt Carroll,Ann(e)Bryn (Burn, Burns, Byrne),Whalen, From the FitzWilliams > estates at Kilabeg also the Hillbrook area and the Clonmore Parish area of > Carlow.

Hi, Cara-and a Salubrious Solstice to all- just wanted to say, still subscribed, still interested, just not doing anything in research or even collation- hubby has been ill, they think maybe TIA but so far not in position to get further testing to verify. has been a stressful summer but at the moment he is sleeping comfy and I am prowling dark cold house seeking piles of unsorted input that may be devoured-including, as you see, email ;) Bragging rights if you need them, this is one of only 3 mail lists I am still subscribed to-all for similar reason- because they remain interesting, informative, and on-topic- that is to say, have never once used their privileged entry to my inbox to batter me with bluidy freaking politics. Don't recall where you live-if I ever knew-but as I live in USA where we are currently undergoing one of our periodic electoral circuses you will understand that is a ponderable grace! Thank you so much for good work, please carry on!

A few years on and another lister ( no2) writes down to me from Spain, he was assisting another gentleman who had written from IRELAND for his assistance ( Not a lister) In looking for where his relatives were buried. Today from all that flying around the globe, with modern emails, I have been able to send back to Lister No 2 a photo that No1 had taken and tell him that he will now be able to tell the people in IRELAND where their family are buried and yes they do have a headstone, that has been lovingly made by the family in their memory. I wanted to thank Lister No 1 and let him know that the photos are still being sent out to those who request them, as some of these graveyards we have photographed are a wee bit remote, and hard to get to. So thanks to all and what are you doing on your research or where are you up to, in your research? Another year grinds fast to its end and nothing seems to be appearing on list, is this because you are tired, busy or finished with your researching. Congratulations to Joyce Tunstead, for her wonderful contributions to the IGP headstone site, and I am sure if you desire any of those photos Joyce would be more than thrilled to send them on to you along with her friend Yvonne, they have created a lasting worthy contribution to headstones of Ireland. Cheers for now Cara
