John Petty may have been born in England and may have come to Ireland with the British Military as a horse doctor before 1851, but Irish records need to prove this family lore. He married Mary Kilmartin about 1850 in County Clare, or possibly Galway. Would like to identify John's parents, place of birth, and birth date to pursue further family history research. Would also like to pursue Mary Kilmartin's ancestry.

- John Petty, born Abt. 1851 Lurraga, Clare, Ireland (according to 1901 Census); married Bridget Kilmartin 22 Feb 1882 in Ennistymon, Clare, Ireland
