Hi Helen, thanks for your email re McGiveny/Givney. Your gggrandmother was quite a gal wasn't she? I think it would have been her parents that would be good to follow up.  I don't know where the original John Givney grew up. The only information we have is that he was in Co Cavan in 1840's when Griffiths Valuation was done. All the best.  Ann Marie from England

Hi, looking for clarification.  What is the difference between Rahever and Raheever in Co Cavan and where would I find the former?

All help gratefully received  gilli48

Laurence/Lawrence as a name crops up in every generation from my Dads eldest brother generally as the 1st born son.  The only exception is the name Thomas born about 1787. Also his grandson Thomas.

Thanks for that.  Tom & Jane were my 3xGreat Grandparents.  Their first born son was Laurence which begs another question.

If they were using the Irish naming pattern which they seem to have done as the second son was James called after his maternal Grandfather, would I be fairly confident that Tom's father was Laurence?   This is why I need the probable Parish Church in order to search for Tom's parents.

Thanks, Ann-Marie

Thanks for the prompt replies to my request.  I will certainly be contacting the Ballinacree website. 

My relatives seemed to move around as Tom & Jane Cullen were married in Collinstown, Westmeath in 1812, Their children were all Baptised there even when living elsewhere eg. Rahever, Garrysallagh D'Arcy, Cavan.

I am wondering whether this would be common then.  I know because of the situation regarding religion there was a clandestine aspect to public worship.

Many thanks once again and a Happy New Year.  Ann-Marie

Hi all, I am hoping for help.  I was recently very lucky to find my 3xGreat Grandparents Thomas & Jane Gillick with their 2 small sons, Laurence & James, living in Rahever, Cavan. 

I am stuck as to where the nearest RC Church would be.  I think that now it might be Ballinacree which is joined to Mountnugent.  However, I wonder whether this Church would be around in 1821.

I would be grateful for any assistance.  Thanks, Ann-Marie :)

Hi Colin,

Thanks for that, I too had found George and his wife Sarah Wade.  Going back I have parents of George (my 5th Great Grandfather) as William Juett 1712 - 1779 Feltham and Elizabeth.  They got married about 1730 in Feltham.  Their children were:-
John 1732 - 1775, James 1734-1799, Thomas 1734, James 1737, George 1739, Martha 1748. 

That's about it for now,

Regards, Ann-Marie

Dear Colin,

Well here we are again.  I am annmarie1254 from Ancestry and we tossed this issue about some time ago.  Please forgive me for not replying sooner but I have been ill.

Like you I have been searching for Juetts, Jewetts and Jewit/ts recently.  When I checked the Baptism records I have found that the Vicar has spelt their names Jewit or Jewitt even tho sometimes Ancestry have mistranscribed it as Jewett.  Starting with my 2xgreat grandmother Jemima Gooud 1832 Baptised in Feltham but resident in St Marylebone, who married James Hoare, I then go back to her parents John Gooud 1807, a gardener, and Eliza Juett 1808-1853.  Continuing up the Maternal line we have Eliza's parents Joseph Jewitt and Elizabeth,the Baptism clearly states.  Eliza was born 6th April and Baptised 11th October 1807 at St Dunstan with St Catherine Feltham , Middlesex.
So, if we accept that Joseph Jewitt/Juett 1771 is the father of Eliza and the husband of Eliza/beth and that, as stated on his second marriage, his father is George then that takes us back a further generation.

As for why Eliza has moved from Feltham to Hanover Square, I think that John Gooud was working as a Gardener in the Market Gardens.  It is not altogether remarkable that she got a job in service in London.  While John seems to have moved about presumably looking for work, they were resident in Marylebone for Jemima's (eldest daughter) birth.

Hope that this doesn't raise too many problems.  By the way what do BTW,A* mean? 

All the best Ann-Marie

By the way, Happy New Year :)  Just a note further to my previous message.  I also chased up another George in the hope of locating Joseph's father and he was born 1769 which I also reckon is too close in age.  This George married Jane Thrift, b 1777, in 1804 in Hanworth and someone has added on the younger George born 1789 as their son.  I appreciate that it is very confusing and I should've checked DOBs first but, hey we're all human!

Thanks again to all who have tried to help. 

Hopefully, Ann-Marie
