I asked my Mum.

She knew of only two people with the surname Devereux on the Graig; Maura and her Mum. She said that they emigrated to America. The mother would have been Mrs Devereux, anyway, and the daughter would have changed her name on marriage. She said that the father had died so she didn't really know him.

Maybe there were others she didn't know. There did tend to be extended families living close to each other.

hello Erin.

Yes the family came from Tipperary.

Anne was the daughter of John Devereux and Elizabeth Evans (nee Rees) - unable to trace her as there are so many with the same name and can't find the marriage details (yet!). John was the son of John Devereux and Hannah Reardon (There may also have been a daughter Susan?) Papa John died ( I think) when he was 21 and Hannah married Evan Morgan. As far as I can trace and I am still very foggy on this Papa John was the son of Francis Devereux and grandson of Ellen Devereux from Tipperary. Ellen had more sons but it is difficult to locate them as the name varies so much on the census returns.
Let me know if this ties in with anything you have.
