Sean,

I read the reply last night and thought I would just check this morning before work to see if you had read it. I am chuffed to bits for you,. Its a great feeling isnt it? My g grandfather got a couple of awards and my daughter found them on the Royal Humane Society website. He saved two people from drowning, a drunk and a runaway boy, both in the river Ennis. My G G was born in Galway and served in Kerry, Clare and Wicklow. Its funny to see where are all the kids were born on the census, they certainly got about a bit!
Charles clars daughter was born in Mayo so he could have come from anywhere considering the movement of these men.
anyway off to work for me, and good luck with the rest of your research.

Jacqui

ps if you can, take a look at some local papers of the time, my G g was always mentioned especially for arresting people making illegal booze....

Shocked Glen my man, you are a diamond. You must be my "beginners luck" on rootschat!


Sean

Happy to help but if Jacqui hadn't mentioned the LDS films, I'd be nowhere so all the credit is due to her.

I'm astonished. Lots of info there to take in at once.....including 3 marriages (my aunt may have a fit when she hears that!). Talk about sailors having a girl in every port, eh?  Wink


I wouldn't go rushing out shouting about it. I think you'll find he was probably widowed (at least once  Wink) so until you get more information then hold back a bit.

Cheers

Glen
