WALSH/HEWITT's from Longford
« on: Thursday 14 September 06 20:48 UTC (UK) »
Need help!  The story goes.... my grandfather John Walsh was born in Canaan Airdes near Moate, Longford County in 1782.  He died in 1845 in Moate.  His wife was Letitia Hewitt born in 1783 in Moate and died in Bearbrook, Cumberland Township, Russel County, Ontario, Canada.  Now I believe that they married in 1803.  They had 10 children that I know of, many coming to Canada.  Now my Father is the Keeper of the Records, but I know that getting back just one more generation would be just a great surprise for him.  I have been searching and searching for the name Canaan Airdes and also for Moate but I am coming up blank.... any ideas where I can start hunting and maybe give him a surprise with some information that he does not have?  Thanks![b][/b]

Hello Audean,
What document do you have which shows the placename Canaan Airdes Huh

It does not look like an Irish placename.
