LANGFORD
« on: Tuesday 01 April 08 10:37 UTC (UK) » |

Hi all,
I am hoping for leads on the LANGFORD family.
John Langford(c1800-1860) was born Ballyhupahaun He married a Sarah Curtis(c1808-1895). Children were John, William, Ann and Jane.
William (b Drummond 1839 d Brunswick Victoria 1912) married 1864 Wesleyan Chapel, Charleston Rd, Dublin, Ireland to Louisa Sinclair Jones (b 1839 Dublin died 1915 Melbourne Victoria). [source: family history document]. I note a William and Louisa and 4 children were present on the 'Western Empire' which arrived Melbourne September 1871 [Victorian PRO]
My family history document says: "They lived at Drummond, Ireland and their graves are in the Churchyard of St Brigids Church at Rosenallis..... The land they farmed has changed hands several times but as far as I know is still known as "Langford's field" at Rosenallis. There are several tablets and a window in the church to the memory of departed Langfords."
I would be grateful if anyone has leads on this family
Best wishes to all
Stuart

Welcome to Rootschat.
Since the dates you need are before civil registration in Ireland you need to search for church records (if they still exist). To do so you need to know the family's religion and where they lived and then start looking. Have you tried searching the LDS catalogue (www.familysearch.org) in case they have microfilmed the records you need?

No leads on IGI, unfortunately. My LANGFORDS were almost certainly Wesleyan

Unfortunately I can't find anything on the LDS catalog for Laois that might help- no church records, no probate, no tax

Hi Stuart. 1849 Isaac Langford had property at Avoley and Cloonagh,Rosenalis and Thomas Langford in Drinagh,Rosenalis,all three townlands just west of Mountmellick.The townland of Drummond is slightly more North/West. Presently there are two Langfords listed in the phonebook within twelve miles of these townlands.Would attach maps if I knew your e-mail addy.Regards Bill.

Thank you Jack,
Its good to see that Langfords were living in place, at least until recent decades.
I have since made contact with my fellow living Langford-descendants in other counties of Ireland, and their descendants in Australia and Canada.
Regards,
Stuart
