Title: BVRI look up: HAWE and FRENEY, particularly in Callan
Post by: Lambendsor (aka IGS) on Monday 14 August 06 13:34 BST (UK)
I'm looking for any details on the HAWE and FRENEY families in Kilkenny, particularly those in the Callan area. I've collected those on the IGI, but am wondering if there are some more on the BVRI.

My gggg-grandfather was Garrett FRENEY of Callan, husband of Catherine [CAREY?], born c.1800, died (apparently) by Dec 1855.

Their daughter Margaret FRENEY (c.1825-1866) married Robert HAWE sometime in the 1840s. Robert was the son of Walter and Julia HAWE (or HAW, HOWE, etc.). Robert's brother Patrick (born c.1820) married Bridget. Robert also seems to be connected with a Michael HAWE (born c.1800) who married Catherine DUNN. These HAWEs were mostly butchers.

Margaret FRENEY HAWE went to the US in Nov/Dec 1846; Robert may have come a year or so earlier.

Thanks!

I am an historian not a genealogist but the following may be of interest.

Two pupils attending a school in Callan in 1829-30 were Judy and Robin Haw: they both entered on the same day, the only pupils to do so, and that suggests a relationship, probably brother and sister. There is also a record of a Walter Haw attending the same school at around that time. The only property tax (church tithes) payer of the name Haw in the town at that point was named Walter. He had a small piece of land near the village.
