    3. Greetings from Canada! I have recently received some new information on my ROE research and wondered if anyone on list can help! Here are the details: Arms were granted to Richard Roe, Captain in Colonel Anthony Hungerford's Regiment on 25 October 1647 by William Roberts Ulster Kind of Arms, No right has been established since. Arms are described as follows: ARMS: Argent nine bees volant transversed about a beehive sable on a canton gules a rose of the first. CREST. (see webpage below)a demi lion rampant ermyn armed and langued gules holding betwixt his paws a creassant gules. Richard Roe - son and heir of Richard Roe of Ballsall Warwick, and descended from the family of Roe of Maxwell .........ran searches on these names/places and did not get very far, any ideas? Captain in Colonel Anthony Hungerford's Regiment, sent to Ireland in 1647 (then 7 is crossed out and in place the figure 1) to suppress the rebellion It does not say who Richard married but he had issue: Charles Roe of Ballintaggard, Co. Armagh no marriage for Charles but issue William Roe died without issue and Thomas Roe of Mount Roe Armagh Thomas Roe married ? and had issue Thomas Roe Charles Roe Charlotte Walter settled in Baltimore John settled in Baltimore Edward Rector of Donegore & Killride Edward married ? and had issue Samuel Roe died unmarried George Roe born 20 Oct. 1788 and died 25 July 1858 Edward died without issue William died unmarried George married 23 April 1828 Eliza, daughter of Major Samuel Noble and had issue Samuel Black Roe of Ballyconnel born 11 Sept. 1830 George Noble born 11 Oct 1833, died 14 Feb 1893; Capt. 3rd Buffs Edward Alexander Henry born 28 June 1839 William born 4 March 1847 I found info in Times archives re this last family and it appears that they spent a great deal of time in RA trying to stave off the bailiffs from taking Ballyconnel, a sizable estate with woodlands etc. but I cannot connect this information in any way to my ROE info Now my ROE family. My GG Grandmother Sarah Ann Roe married Francis Mallard Clark in Plymouth in 1863, I have the marriage cert Then I found them on the 1881 and it turned out to be an Irish search, which has proven very difficult. Now it seems they may have been Irish with English roots? What I have found on my Roes can be seen on the following web pages: http://members.cox.net/ggthomp/roberthenryroe1816.html http://members.cox.net/ggthomp/francisclark1841.html http://members.cox.net/ggthomp/thomasroe1838.html http://members.cox.net/ggthomp/richardroe1845.html http://members.cox.net/ggthomp/williamroe1848.html http://members.cox.net/ggthomp/arthurroe1854.html Thanks for any help Best to everyone Jane, Ottawa, Ontario, Canada
