In my search for Capt John Haire, died Glaslough, 1861 I have come across other people of the same surname.

In particular the Rev H Haire, A.M. of Aghabog-glebe, Co Monoghan.

With John being a Captain in the British Army and being grandfather to the Rev H. P Charlton of Burt, Co Donegal, I feel there might be some connection. Unfortunately I don't have a date for the Rev Haire. I found the ref via Google and then lost the link.

 

I ahve also come across ref's to Arthur Newburgh Haire-Forster, high Sheriff of Monoghan in 1899 and a Miss Mae Haire-Foster living with female members of the Leslie family on Corravahan, Co Cavan in the middle 20th century.

 

Any thoughts?

    Welcome to Ireland Reaching Out!

    I am a bit confused! Have you verified that John Haire is the grandfather of H.P Charlton or is this want you want to verify?

  • Hullo CLare

    Yes John Haire was the grandfather of Rev Charlton.

    At the moment I am tracking other Haire families to attempt a connection to John.

    Thanks

  • Dear Bill

    That might be the best course of action!  Have you managed to find anything in the British Army record?

    The only reference I can see is in Lewis Topographical Dictionary:
