Hello from the U.S.A. I am research a maternal family line; the family of William and Loveda Alcock Barrington who were "Scotch-Irish" Methodist tenant famers in or near Rosetown (now called Naas), County Kildare.
This is what I know:
William H. Barrington, b. 16 June 1795 (or 6 Jun 1795)
Circa 1816, he married Loveda (or maybe Loveday) Alcock, who died before 1840
Children:
* Alexander, b: 1 Jun 1823, Rosetown (now called Naas), County Kildare,
Ireland; d: 31 Dec 1906, Town of Dayton, Waupaca County, Wisconsin
* George, b: 16 Jul 1824, Ireland; d: 4 Jun 1863 (drowned while serving in the Grand Army of the Republic in the War Between the States, buried in
Oklahoma)
* Elizabeth, b: 12 Jan 1826, Ireland; d: 18 Aug 1889, Appleton, Wisconsin, In Ireland, she married John Dillon, b: 17 May 1792, Ireland, d: 16 Oct 1874,
Appleton, Wisconsin
* Margaret, b: 8 Dec 1829, Ireland; d: 6 April 1915, Wisconsin; She married James Jackson, b: 1816, Ireland, d: 4 April 1884, Wisconsin
* Mary Ann, b: 16 June 1831, Ireland; d: 15 Aug 1919, Wisconsin; She married Arron Hyatt, b: 1823, New York, d: 17 June 1890, Wisconsin
* Benjamin, born: 1832, Ireland
* William Henry, Jr. b: 11 Mar 1833, Ireland; d: 11 Sept 1924, Crystal Lake, Town of Dayton, Waupaca County, Wisconsin (served in the Confederate Army, Mississippi regiment during the War Between the States)
* Richard, b: 19 Aug 1834, Ireland; d: 10 Apr 1907, Crystal Lake, Town of Dayton, Waupaca Co, Waupaca, Wisconsin (served in the Grand Army of the Republic during the War Between the States)
* Caroline, b: Ireland; d: at sea, 11 Nov 1853
* Henry, b: Ireland; d: at sea, Nov. 2, 1853
* Catherine, b: 1843, Ireland; d: 1924, U.S.A.
* Jane, b: 1845, Ireland; d: 1921, U.S.A.
* Tamara. b. Ireland
After their mother Loveda Alcock Barrington died, the older children were
bound out to neighbors and worked as household servants. The boys worked on estates. As a result of the potato famine, the family emigrated to the U.S., one or two of the children at a time. Alexander may have emigrated first.
I am descended from Alexander Barrington.
Thank you. Jean E

Thought I'd reply after seeing the reference to Rosetown (now called Naas). This may be misleading as Rosetown is in Newbridge which is situated appox 5 miles from Naas.
Naas has never been called Rosetown.

Thank you for the clarification. The Rosetown-now-named-Naas information was from an older Barrington Family history compiled by my maternal grandmother's generation. I'll update my records accordingly and notify the others in our U.S. family association. Sincerely, Jean E. DeLauche, Maryland Heights, Missouri, USA
