The sons were all born before the start of civil records so you will need to check for Church records for possible baptisms and possibly the marriage record also if they were RC. Were there any younger children ?

census returns for reference :

  1901 - Swaine household, Ballyeden townland (http://census.nationalarchives.ie/pages/1901/Wexford/Balloughter/Ballyeden/1792332/)

  1911 - Swaine household, Ballyeden townland (http://census.nationalarchives.ie/pages/1911/Wexford/Balloughter/Ballyedan/682958/)

The Swaine/Swayne family are listed as Church of Ireland, so their parish would be Toome, sometimes listed as Toombe. Baptism, marriage & death/burial records for this parish go back to around 1770 and are available in the RCBL Library in Co. Dublin

p.s. there are apparently some gaps in the records around 1820..

ANNIE CECILIA SWAYNE marriage in 1938 in Gorey Wexford  and these names seem to follow thru with family...Wonder who her parents were and who she married

You would need the cert to find out more on Annie Cecilia - that's just the index entry.

There are much older Swaine marriages in the extracted records on FamilySearch that are worth checking out if you have not already done so..

see : Swaine marriages (https://www.familysearch.org/search/records/index#count=20&query=%2Bsurname%3ASWAYNE~%20%2Bmarriage_place%3AWexford~&collection_id=1584964)

Unfortunately Church of Ireland parish records for Newtownbarry only seem to go back to 1837 - so possibly slightly too late for Anna Cecilia's baptisms.

there is a swaine/swane family still living at Ballycarney  I used to know a fred swaine in the early 60"s. they live 

at  Ballingale on the Ballycarney to clohamon road. I would  inquire at the ballycarney inn <pub>, they are nice people there and they might be able to help you.  If they confirm the family is there , just send the sweine/swane family a nice note with your enquiry leaving them a contact number.  What have you got to lose by doing so. There is a church of ireland parish church at ballycarney, they may have some information . Bunclody is about 4 miles from Ballycarney.

James Doyle of Boolacreen, born abt. 1830, married Elizabeth Doyle of Ballymore (Carrigrew Hill), born abt 1830. They were married in Ferns in the Catholic church on 19 Oct. 1851. They left Ireland for Philadelphia in 1854.

The descendants of Elizabeth Doyle (nee Swayne) include Mrs. Elizabeth Byrne of Ballyoughter (born 1901)and Mrs. Margaret Brennan of Ballymore (born 1907), who lived on the old homestead in a mobile home. They were the daughters of Patrick Doyle and Mary Gahan from the same area.

--------------------------------------

I presume there's a Generation missing or something!

 Patrick was possibly  James/Elizabeth's son  ??

The Cecilia Elizabeth Beatrice Swaine mentioned by Jack2227 was my great aunt. Her maiden name was Earle. She married Alexander Swaine on 3 April 1918 at Clone Church, Enniscorthy. She was a National Schoolteacher.

Hi Lemon:)
This Swayne Lot in wexford I would love to Unravel   And thanks for your reply too
I think this Cecelia was nee Clendinnen (A sister??Or daughter of my ggggrandfather John Clendinnen who was born According to Wesleyan archives in Downpatrick Co Down circa 1770    He was a Wesleyan Minister so consequently travelled all over with his religious postings)
Have the marriage certs of Mary Charlotte Swayne Who was born circa 1821 In wexford  She married Thomas brend in 1846 in Devon   Father listed as john Swayne Yeoman
Then we have a Anna Cecilia Swayne   Listed a Cecilia Swayne On her marriage(have cert)To Charles henry wade in 1863 in Swansea   She was listed as aged 30 (born circa 1833) Hubby was aged 65 and a widower   Father listed as John Swayne(deceased) Merchant
Theres also another brother I think too Mary and anna Cecilia a Samuel Alexander Frederick Swayne born according to a clendinnen researcher 28 Jan 1839 Newtownbarry Wexford
On 1851 census u have Anna C Swayne Living with Grandparents John C Clendennen and wife Mary C in bideford Devon   Anna listed as being 20
Mary charlotte Clendinnen with her granddaughters ran a boarding school for women in wexford too for awhile 
Love to try and sort these swaynes out
thanks

Hi again:)
Forgot to mention there is also a Elizabeth Luanda Swayne born circa 1820  She worked as a Governess/Teacher in England on several English censuses and was living with an Ellis Family in devon in bideford  , who we think may connect to john clendinnens wife  Mary Charlotte nee ellis
We think she also connects to family  but no proof
cathy:)
Have been unable to find her death

Post by: lemontea on Wednesday 29 March 17 23:13 BST (UK)
Hi Cathy, I don't have a huge amount of info on the Swain's as my ancestry is through the Earle's. There seem to be a few vague 'touching points' with some that you've mentioned but nothing more than the locations really.
I have John Swaine, born about 1826 (can't find a birth record record) but in 1854 he was in Ballycarney, Wexford (Griffiths Valuation). He married Sarah Jane Bates on 22 Sep 1868, Ferns, Wexford. He was 42 she was 23. They had at least 9 children. John 1869, William 1870, Edward Samuel 1872, Abraham 1873, Peter 1875, Henry R 1879, Mary Frances 1879, Jeremiah Thomas 1881 and Alexander 'Alec' 1884.

Alec. Birth registered Enniscorthy 1884.
1901 census, aged 16, he was living at 8 Main Street, Newtownbarry in what appears to be some kind of hostel/boarding house. He was working as a drapers assistant.
1911. Back home with mother Sarah Jane (widow) and several adult siblings at House 8, Scarawalsh, Wexford
3 April 1918 he married Cecilia Elizabeth Beatrice Earle at Clone Church, Enniscorthy.
3 children form this marriage, all registered Enniscorthy.
(*) 1921 (still alive and living in Gorey)
(*) 1924 (no further info)
(*) 1927 (no further info)

Alec died on 17 Sep 1949. He was living in Scarawalsh at the time of his death.

Hope you get your Swaine's sorted! Good luck  :)

Hi Cathy, the only Swaine I have from Gorey is Removed, who is actually still alive aged 96. There is quite a useful website that has lots of Irish parish and church records online. I've confirmed quite a few of my 'Earle's' BMD's from this site

Welcome to RootsChat Helen,
The marriage cert says both Elizabeth and James were minors, that is under 21 years so is this Elizabeth in 1911 aged 14
http://www.census.nationalarchives.ie/pages/1911/Wexford/Gorey_Urban/Clonattin_Road/685156/

Mother Anne's surname is Mape.

Welcome to RootsChat Helen,
The marriage cert says both Elizabeth and James were minors, that is under 21 years so is this Elizabeth in 1911 aged 14
http://www.census.nationalarchives.ie/pages/1911/Wexford/Gorey_Urban/Clonattin_Road/685156/

Mother Anne's surname is Mape.

 Wow thanks for the link that does look like the right Devine family but while Anne (wife)  death 1938 @ 70y corresponds just about, James (Head of Family)  I have a death  @78y in 1936 a couple of years out he would have been 76? going by 1911.

His death was registered by Elizabeth (then Swaine)
Anne's (Wife) was registered by  James (son) so it looks right apart from that

It does give me the names of the siblings (if correct) which is great
Thank you

 So Yes she and J Swaine were Minors, she is around 19

Also found this I find this strange

 DEVINE   JOSEPH   21   07/02/17   SON OF JAMES AND ANNIE DEVINE, OF GOREY; HUSBAND OF MARY HAYDEN (FORMERLY DEVINE), OF 1, WILLAM ST., GOREY, CO. WEXFORD.
 
There is also a marriage of him aged 20 to a  Mary Cullin 25 April 1915 this seems more believable more so as his father is named and Joseph unable to write put an X as does  Mary Cullin and also the 2 witnesses.

 There could I guess be another Joseph in the family not on the 1911. they had 9 children all said to be living but only 7 showing living at that address. 

Anne's maiden name (Mape) is also of help... I hope lol where did you get that from, please.
Title: Re: SWAYNE/SWAINE in Co wexford
Post by: Sinann on Sunday 10 June 18 06:09 BST (UK)
Ages on dearth Certs are often incorrect, in fact ages on just about everything are often incorrect even dates on birth certs.
Birth, marriage and death Certs are free online with some date limits.
https://civilrecords.irishgenealogy.ie/churchrecords/civil-search.jsp

Here is the youngest boy in the census Daniel
https://civilrecords.irishgenealogy.ie/churchrecords/images/birth_returns/births_1908/01667/1664310.pdf
And another child Michael born after the census
https://civilrecords.irishgenealogy.ie/churchrecords/images/birth_returns/births_1911/01520/1617186.pdf
The registration district is Gorey from Matthew forward.
Note the children on the census are born in Counties Kildare, Dublin and Wexford.
The parents marriage is also there but in a different district, it was 1886 in Rathdrum, I'll leave you to have fun finding it and the other births yourself but we are here to help if you get stuck.
Hopefully it's the correct family.

This looks like the family in 1901
http://www.census.nationalarchives.ie/pages/1901/Wicklow/Rathdrum/Garrymore_Upper/1816378/
The places of birth don't quite match, not unusual,  there is a birth for Anne in 1899 registered in Naas which covers parts of Co.Wicklow and although the birth place looks like Shankhill I believe it's Shankill which is in Wicklow and Naas reg district.

I noticed that but she was only briefly part of the family if it is the same Joseph, still I can't find a second marriage for her, of course she could have left the country.

Thanks, everyone some good links and info
I'll come back to each later

I have James being from Co Roscommon, Anne being from Co Kildare so ill look into that as well.

Looks like there were lots of Swaines in and around Gorey
Interesting that I can not find any Swaine's or Devine buried locally

Thanks, everyone some good links and info
I'll come back to each later

I have James being from Co Roscommon, Anne being from Co Kildare so ill look into that as well.

Looks like there were lots of Swaines in and around Gorey
Interesting that I can not find any Swaine's or Devine buried locally

 

Don't jump around too much or you could tie your self up in knots.
Concentrate for now on finding all the children's births, that will track the movement of the family, than try to work back on one line as far as possible before going to the other line.
When you have that you can go over all again looking for marriages of siblings, deaths etc. you can than look again at the early records and possibly get even further back with all that search experience under you belt.

 Grave of Joseph Devine

Kemmel Chateau Military Cemetery

I know my Grandmother Elisabeth was close to Joseph and deeply hurt by his loss ( my mum often said about it ) as I expect were the rest of the family.

My granduncle, or commonly great uncle

After advising you not to spread yourself too thin I'm off looking for Swaines.
I was looking at this family to see if it could be the correct James
http://www.census.nationalarchives.ie/pages/1901/Wexford/Newtownbarry/Irish_Street/1790796/
so decided to look for marriages for the children to see if I could spot a connection.

A Thomas Swaine, father Patrick married 1919 to Alice Cullen, her witness was Mrs Mary Hayden.

MMmmmm...what ya think?
Mary Cullin had no father on her marriage to Joseph Devine
There is a marriage of Mary Devine widow to Thomas Hayden in 1918 her father is James Sullivan
https://civilrecords.irishgenealogy.ie/churchrecords/images/marriage_returns/marriages_1918/09729/5530182.pdf

Alice Cullen's father is James no surname.

There is a Mary 1896 and a Alice Cullen 1900 born to Elizabeth Cullen unmarried.

Still not sure if this is the correct Swaine family, they haven't moved to Gorey by 1911.
http://www.census.nationalarchives.ie/pages/1911/Wexford/Newtownbarry/Newtownbarry_Town/681671/
Patrick has a new wife and 3 children with her.
Don't see a death for his first wife Sarah but there is a marriage for widower Patrick to Mary Gilbert
https://civilrecords.irishgenealogy.ie/churchrecords/images/marriage_returns/marriages_1906/10129/5685487.pdf

Wonder if only the older children moved to Gorey.

That's what I mean about the older children moving out, they do have a James he's there in 1901 so I thought maybe this could be James in 1911

Yes also on the marriage to Sarah Foley it's Stephen, and one of the sons is Stephen.
Were you expecting for a different name? Could Stephen rule this family out?

No not at all could have been named after the Grandfather  :)

However, there is no James my GFather on that 1911  but as said before may have been living elsewhere
Stuff all over the place to try and work out  :o

And no Stephen either, no idea where he went.
And no proof it's the correct Swaine family.
The church entry of James and Elizabeth's marriage might give mothers names.

Welcome to RootsChat Helen,
The marriage cert says both Elizabeth and James were minors, that is under 21 years so is this Elizabeth in 1911 aged 14
http://www.census.nationalarchives.ie/pages/1911/Wexford/Gorey_Urban/Clonattin_Road/685156/

Mother Anne's surname is Mape.

 Wow thanks for the link that does look like the right Devine family but while Anne (wife)  death 1938 @ 70y corresponds just about, James (Head of Family)  I have a death  @78y in 1936 a couple of years out he would have been 76? going by 1911.

His death was registered by Elizabeth (then Swaine)
Anne's (Wife) was registered by  James (son) so it looks right apart from that

It does give me the names of the siblings (if correct) which is great
Thank you

 So Yes she and J Swaine were Minors, she is around 19

Also found this I find this strange

 DEVINE   JOSEPH   21   07/02/17   SON OF JAMES AND ANNIE DEVINE, OF GOREY; HUSBAND OF MARY HAYDEN (FORMERLY DEVINE), OF 1, WILLAM ST., GOREY, CO. WEXFORD.
 
There is also a marriage of him aged 20 to a  Mary Cullin 25 April 1915 this seems more believable more so as his father is named and Joseph unable to write put an X as does  Mary Cullin and also the 2 witnesses.

 There could I guess be another Joseph in the family not on the 1911. they had 9 children all said to be living but only 7 showing living at that address. 

Anne's maiden name (Mape) is also of help... I hope lol where did you get that from, please.
I found Mary Devine marriage to Thomas Hayden 1918 her father James Sullivan Or has someone posted this before  ??? so if they did

Still not sure if this is the correct Swaine family, they haven't moved to Gorey by 1911.
http://www.census.nationalarchives.ie/pages/1911/Wexford/Newtownbarry/Newtownbarry_Town/681671/
Patrick has a new wife and 3 children with her.
Don't see a death for his first wife Sarah but there is a marriage for widower Patrick to Mary Gilbert
https://civilrecords.irishgenealogy.ie/churchrecords/images/marriage_returns/marriages_1906/10129/5685487.pdf

Wonder if only the older children moved to Gorey.


Pretty  sure that's not the family I'm looking for as James my grandfather is not listed and he would have been around 14/15 in 1911

That's what I mean about the older children moving out, they do have a James he's there in 1901 so I thought maybe this could be James in 1911
http://www.census.nationalarchives.ie/pages/1911/Wexford/Rossminoge/Boley__Lower/683561/

I lived just 2 streets away from my Aunty 2002-2008 and one of my girls still lives there

One of my sisters works at a local doctors a few  streets away, she could even have been a patient there.

Hi Cathy, we have spoken before.  Sorry for the delay in responding, I don't visit this board often. 

The Rev. John Swayne who married Frances Crawford is NOT the same John Swayne you are talking about here.

Rev. John Swayne and Frances Crawford had a number of children, the last one born in 1821.  Rev. John Swayne died in Tipperary in 1866 and Frances Crawford died in 1863 in Tipperary.  I have records for all of this.

As for your branch, John Clendinnen was the second husband of Mary Charlotte Crane.  Her first husband was Middleton Robson who died during the 1798 uprising (he died on Wexford Bridge).  Middleton Robson and Mary Charlotte Crane had a daughter named Mary Cecilia Robson.  She married John Swayne in Newtonbarry in 1818.  It was their daughter, Anna Cecilia Swayne, who married Charles Henry Baseley/Wade.

Rev John Swayne and the John Swayne from Wexford might have been related but it's impossible to tell since records don't go back that far.

Rev John Swayne was born about 1786, the son of John Swayne, Esq and Charlotte Connor of Midleton, County Cork.  John and Charlotte had at least 11 children, most of which I have been able to trace, and have death records for many of them.  None of them, that I can tell anyway, ended up in Wexford.  Rev. John Swayne, as near as I can tell, never lived in Wexford.  It appears he lived most of his life in Kilworth, Cork and moved to Tipperary about 1834. 

I have a Memorial of a Deed that places John Swayne and his wife, Mary Cecilia in Carley's Bridge (just outside of Enniscorthy) in 1832.  John and Mary Cecilia were quite active in the Methodist church until 1831, when they disappear out of the Methodist Class books.  I don't have a death record for Mary Cecilia but John Swayne died in 1847.  Their two eldest daughters, Elizabeth and Mary Charlotte, were living in England by 1841.  Mary Charlotte's wedding announcement notes that she is the niece of John Clendinnen.  They also had a son named William Middleton who emigrated to the US after he married Sarah Owens. 

The first record of Anna Cecilia Swayne being in England is in 1851, when she is living with her grandparents - John and Mary Cecilia Clendinnen. 

So, why is Mary Charlotte called John Clendinnen's niece when he was technically her step-grandfather?  I don't know.  Could be a lot of reasons she called herself that when the relationship was technically something else. 

There was actually a lot of Swaynes (and various spellings) living in Wexford, many in Gorey, some near Newtonberry (Bunclody) some in Ballycarney and some in Monart.  I suspect that John Swayne is connected to either the Newtonberry or Monart branch.  I don't know if they are connected to another Wexford branch or not.  Unfortunately, finding records for them are difficult since most are not online.  There is no way with available records to connect the Swaynes that lived in Cork to the Swaynes that lived in Wexford. 

I have to say that I haven't done a whole lot of research on the Clendinnen's so I can't really comment on the research of someone who has.  They possibly have sources I'm not aware of.  What I have done is a great deal of research on the Swaynes in Ireland, and I'm not even close to being done yet.  I've spent a lot of time going over whatever online records I have been able to find, which include newspapers and some other really obscure records that you have to dig through.  Unfortunately, many of those records are NOT available in Wexford.  There were a number of John Swaynes in Ireland during that time period and it seems like everyone who does research on Swaynes tries to connect them to the Rev. John Swayne.

Clendon
Glendinning
Glendinnen

I'm confused.  Where are you getting that there were two different John Swaynes that were married to daughters of John Clendinnen? 
Title: Re: SWAYNE/SWAINE in Co wexford
Post by: Drl1959 on Sunday 07 March 21 18:03 GMT (UK)
I'm going to try to clear up some confusion, and I apologize that this is going to be long.  First of all, prior to 1842, no marriages were allowed in the Methodist church, so people had to get married in Church of Ireland churches.  Some Methodists allowed baptisms early on, but not all.  Baptismal records for Methodists are few and far between early on and they are generally not online.  Which means you'd have to visit an archives somewhere to find these records or hire someone to do it.  The records I have are mainly from what I can find online and some are from another researcher collecting those records when they visited the RCB at Dublin a few years ago.  This researcher collected any Swayne records they could in certain parishes that were of interest to them and to myself.  Not all parish records were looked through because of lack of time and generally speaking, they are transcripts not copies of the records.  Having said that, this is what I have and keep in mind I have not done a great deal of research of the Clendinnens, but only as they connect to the Swaynes.

John Clendinnen married Mary Ann Ellis in the Diocese of Kildare in 1802. This record is available here - http://census.nationalarchives.ie/reels/dm/IRE_DIOC_007246535_00057.pdf  This record is just a book of Marriage License Bonds and not the actual marriage record.  If those records do exist, they are not online and would have to be searched for at the RCB in Dublin. 

I do not have birth/baptismal records for any of their children and I do not have a death record for Mary Ann.  There are other records that state the two sons I have in my tree (John and William) were born in County Cork.  I have no further information on them until they married.  I have no further information on whether or not John and Mary Ann had any other children besides those two. 

John Clendinnen married Mary Charlotte Robson in the Diocese of Ossory in 1813.  Here is that record - http://census.nationalarchives.ie/reels/dm/IRE_DIOC_007246537_00138.pdf.  This record also includes Mary Charlotte Crane marrying Middleton Robson in 1797 and Mary Cecilia Robson marrying John Swayne in 1818. 

I have no records for any children they might have had.  The Gorey parish records don't start until 1827 and the first Clendinnen in those records is a grandson named Joseph born in 1828.  The Newtonbarry parish records are available online at the RCB (google Anglican Record Project).  There are a few other parishes available as well.  The only Clendinnen record in the Newtonbarry parish records is William's marriage to Lydia Deaker. 

Middleton Robson and Mary Charlotte Crane were married in the Diocese of Ossory in 1797.  Middleton Robson died in 1798 on Wexford Bridge.  Mary Charlotte Robson then married John Clendinnen in 1813.  It is unknown if they themselves had children.  What I have right now is that John Clendinnen had two children with his first wife, Mary Ann Ellis, and Mary Charlotte Crane had one child with her first husband, Middleton Robson.  It's possible there were other children, I just don't have records for them at this time.  Mary Cecilia was John Clendinnen's step daughter, not his daughter and I have no records that state he had any biological daughters at all. 

I do have the transcript of John Swayne and Mary Cecilia Robson's marriage.  It states they were both from Newtonbarry and that they married in Enniscorthy on 26 July 1818.  They are listed in the Methodist Class books from 1819 to 1831.  I have a memorial of a deed that places them in Carley's Bridge in 1832.  There aren't any baptismal records for any of their possible children available online.  Possible children are Elizabeth, born about 1821, Mary Charlotte born about 1822, William Middleton born about 1825 and Anna Cecelia born about 1825.  It's possible they had other children.  John Swayne died 27 Aug 1847.  I don't have a death record for Mary Cecilia. 

I, personally, do not have any records that state what John Swayne's profession was.  It is however possible that he was both a yeoman and a merchant.  It is also confusing as to why in the announcement for Mary Charlotte Swayne's married to Thomas Brend that she is referred to as John Clendinnen's niece.  I don't have an answer for that. 

I have also realized that many researchers appear to have Mary Ann Ellis and Mary Charlotte Crane/Robson confused and/or combined.  They also appear to have placed Anna Cecilia Swayne as their daughter and not their grand-daughter, which is why there is confusion about "Cecilia Clendinnen".  This is why it's really important to take what other people have in their trees with a grain of salt.  Many people get so far into something and then don't do follow up.  I think this is also why there is confusion about a son named Samuel, who I haven't found any records of.  The person that put them in their tree cites no sources of where this son was supposedly born.  I would suggest you ignore what other people have in their trees unless they have a record to back it up and in this case, they don't. 

I hope this has cleared up some confusion.
