Hi
I am looking for any information really on the DAWSON family of Rathoe County Carlow. I visited Ireland last year and amazingly found family graves of my GGrandfather's brother and family at St Patricks Church graveyard at Rathoe County Carlow. I spoke to the post lady at the post office on the day and she said there was a JOHN DAWSON Auctioneer at Tullow that was related to those graves. If anyone knows of this person or family I would love to make contact please. The grave at St Patricks contains my GGrand Uncle Daniel Dawson and his brother James (or William) Dawson came to Australia with his sister Julia (Judith) and emmigrated. I would really like to hear from anyone knowing anything of this family.. James Dawson's parents were Margaret Hines (Hynes) and John Dawson, their children were Bridget, Bernard, Daniel, James (William), Mary, Thomas and Julia (Judith). The headstone for Daniel Dawson at St Patricks mentions his wife Annie Dawson nee Watchorn, Margaret Bridget Fitzgerald (nee Dawson) who married John Joseph Fitzgerald, their son James Jospeh Fitzgerald and a daughter named Elizabeth but not sure whose daughter she was. There is also a monument for a Seamus Fitzgerald who I have no idea who that is and also a Sir Charles Alfred Langdale who I am unsure of also...any help with this would be enormously appreciated.
Cheers
