Trying to trace the Watson Family

[aghadowey]

Sean Ruad only listed the 2 Ballyvaughan townlands I mentioned earlier.

Perhaps Thomas Watson was living in Clare when he married?

Could it say Annogh in this parish

Maybe one of the Annagh townlands there are four on the OSI.

It could. It is written as one word with parish underneath.

Ballyvarron was his residence at the time of the marriage. His NSW death certificate says he was born in Limerick.

I mentioned the R.C. registers since it's quite likely that Hanora Halloran was Catholic.

There are 2 possible Limerick deaths for Anne Watson (assuming she died in Limerick after 1864) but the certificates can't be viewed online yet. Hopefully it won't be too long before all images are online.

I'll check from time to time, agahadowey.

This is the Will extract for one of those Anne Watsons- born c1801:

and this looks like the other one- Anne Matilda Watson also born c1801:

Thank you for those will links. I have saved them in the hope that one might be relevant.

Thanks, agahadowey, Sinann, and Glen.
I appreciate you trying to help me with this.     
Irish records are a challenge for me.

There is an Annagh in Feakle Civil/ COI Parish.

Thanks, Sinann.

The links that are being posted are very interesting.

Hello, I am trying to find out more about the family that includes Thomas Annesley Watson 1823-1879, and his wife, Annie Halloran 1830-1899, who came to Australia on the Golden City sailing December 1862. Their children included Henry, Thomas, Annesley (or Ansley) and later Ringrose, as per deeiluka's post 16 August 2017 (I see that I am a bit late coming on board here).

If anyone can assist, my main points of interest are:

1) Whether this Thomas Annesley Watson was related to George Watson 1783-1835 who married Frances O'Sullivan and who was the son of Felthan Watson 1744-1790 and Anastasia Drew 1740-

both families seem to have used similar given names eg Ringrose Drew.

2) Whether Thomas Annesley Watson 1823-1879 was related to a John Watson 1818-1850 who married Sarah Bakewell Astley 1820-1896. They had a daughter, Rebecca Hannah Watson 1844-1912 (and I think John's widow and children emigrated to Australia).

I think John Watson resided in Lanackshire, Scotland. Thomas Annesley came from Limerick Ireland, but at least one family tree places him in Lanackshire in the 1850's.

I have many Irish and Scottish relatives including matches to the O'Brien and Watson family. I am trying to work out the connection, and which side is the one.

Thank you for any help. Best wishes to all.

Here's the marriage record.

Hanora Halloran's residence says 'Annagh in this parish'

Thomas Watson's residence was Ballyvannan in Tomgraney civil parish.
