Looking for information on Segraves of Togher, Dunany, Louth
« on: Sunday 30 November 14 21:16 GMT (UK) »
trying to make a family connection to the Segraves from Dunany ... I have some family history that leads me here but don't have any solid documentation.  I believe the connection is to Peter Segrave ..but the direct connection to me is a James Segrave .

Peter Segrave was born in early 1800's ..I believe he is the father of Fr. John Segrave  b.1839 and Msg Patrick Segrave b. 1849

I think James Segrave b early 1800's could be a brother of Peter Segrave. My connection is through written family history that is not complete.

Thank you!

You are more likely to get a response if you fill in some dates.
Away sorting out DNA matches... I may be gone for some time many years!

I think you are looking for older records in order to confirm or eliminate a possible connection between the 2 men? Do you know what religion they were? Have you checked here for Segraves (some records even back in 1700s).

Thank you both so much... Aghadowey...the priests were Catholic priest..and I have been trying to look through any histories of the churches in the area to see other Segrave connections...
And dathai... I had seen some of the Wills but not all..  I was looking at the will of James .. Do you understand the relationship between Fr. John and minor child Peter?  I think James could have been a brother to the priests?? 8)
