Hello Steve,
There's another one, Charlotte Despard (born in Kent in 1844 - died in Belfast in 1939), who was actively involved in the Irish War of Independence. She was the daughter of Captain William French and Margaret Eccles. She married Maximilian Despard in 1870. www.aim25.ac.uk/cgi-bin/search2?coll_id=6649&inst_id=65

GEORGE FRANK FALKINER DESPARD TO ANNA SARAH FITZSIMMONS 16-11-1903 @ ST PATRICKS BALLYMACARRETT COFI KNOCKBREADA BELFAST DOWN.
I am interested in this gentleman.
Does anyone know when and where (in Queens County) he was baptised or who his parents were?
-
Hi,
I cannot give any detail of his baptism but on his marriage certificate his father's name is given as George Frank Despard.
Regards
-
Thank you :)
That's very helpful.
Does he have an occupation?
-
Sorry, I don't have any further information on him.
Regards

Thank you

There are a number of deeds will etc. relating to Despard mainly in Co Laois on this index. The documents are held by the Genealogical Society of Ireland in their archives in Dun Laoghaire. there are also some Despard family papers not in the index.

If you haven't got it already marriage cert shows George's father as George Frank Despard gentleman and the father of Anna Sarah as Audrey Fitzsimmons Clerk.
There is also a birth record for George Despard 12 Aug 1875 address Killmalogue Cloneygowan Co. Laois with father George F Despard subconstable in RIC that appears to match.

Sorry, I've not been online for a while.
Thank you for the link to the Laois records - so many DESPARDS! They will take some time to sort out.
Many thanks for the baptism details of George Frank Falkiner DESPARD. I've been hunting for that for ages. :)
Great to have George Franks occupation at last.
You've filled in so many gaps
-
keep note of these just in case

Just discovered this board so apologies for delay in reply.
I think the George Frank Faulkner Despard you mention is my great uncle:
George Francis Faulkner Despard
1872–1934
Birth 22 DEC 1872 • King's Co. (Offaly), Ireland
2 children Beatrice and George Walker Despard.
I have been trying to find where they lived or if they had children?
Are you related to them and me?

Hello John, good to hear from you.
I will get back to you.

Just to let you know that George Despard and Susanna Smith had a second child named George 7 Aug 1879 - probable the first George died

Thanks for the replies. I have been working on my tree plus all Despards in a different tree both on ancestry.com. Over 200 Despards so far!
So my GGFather George Francis D had 4 boys 1 girl:
George Francis died young.
George Francis Faulkner 1872 1934
William Andrew Thomas 1877 1960
Susanne S 1876 - ?
Edward John (Smith) 1874 1918 my grandfather.
Can't find where the Faulkner came from either. Only one other Despard with Faulkner outside my tree? Rev Faulkner Despard
But still stuck on my own tree....

Thanks for the links. I have now about 200 Despards in a family tree. But still do not have an Edward as the father of George Francis Despard
Birth 1843 • Portarlington, Queen's Co Laois, Ireland
Death 8 MAR 1916 • 12 Burmah Street, Belfast, Co. Antrim, Ireland
I have most of the Despard side from then on although cannot find George Francis D and his son Walker D who lived in Lancashire. 1909 onwards.
Had better luck with my Gillis side and have traced loads to Canada and US, some in contact with me.
