Hi Emms
Baptisms of the children of James Boden and Mary Hoey in Clogherhead, Co Louth:
- 26 Nov 1785 Richard Boden, sponsors: William McKowne and Ann Lennan
- 07 May 1789 Judith Boden, sponsors: Nichs Mcowen and Jane Quinn
- 30 Jul 1791 Elizabeth Boden, sponsors: James Donnelly and Mary Murray
- 06 Oct 1794 Bridget Boden, sponsors: John Linnen and Cathe Boden
Are any of these people your ancestors? My ancestor James Boden was born some time between 1785 and 1800. He lived and farmed in Newtownstalaban (aka Newtown Drogheda or just Newtown). There were many Boden (or Bowden) people in Drogheda and in the area north of Drogheda in the Barony of Ferrard. It's been very difficult sorting them out.
