Hello,

I am trying to trace my Irish lineage and have found a great-great grandmother on my maternal side to Newry, County Down.

She was born in 1832 and her name is Elizabeth Rice.

Her father is listed as being born in County Down and his name is Thomas Rice.

He married Catherine Anne O'Hare in 1814.

Thomas Rice's father was David Rice and his mother was Miss Surley. She is also listed as being born in County Down, Ireland.

  • Rachel, I am looking at old queries and there is an excellent County Down website and if you look at it you may find more info, post again if you have a specific query but at the remove you are asking we rely on church records which are often not there at that remove.
