Davidstown Co Wexford

Hi Sheila Mary,

Subscription site www.findmypast.ie has a record of a Quaker family in Wexford - John in Park Annesley and James in Erackna.

They both made a claim under Surrenders and Claimants Act for loss to livestock and clothing as a result of the 1798 Rebellion.

James is recorded as Morison at a Quaker meeting.

They may be connections to you family?

Regards,

Thanks but I do not think they were Quakers  .They were fighting for the cause and James was lost in the battle. John survived but left for Canada some time after.

Any other ideas I will be happy to hear.  They were Catholics as in Canada  John raised his children in that faith although he married a Protestant , Marie Adams from Antrim who had come with family to Canada.

I appreciate your help.

Sheila
