While I have not done so actively, I am still researching this family line.  Feel free to share what you have!

Kilkenny / Re: GRANT family in IVERK

Thank you for the info and the link.  I have reviewed some valuation info previously, but since I could not find any link by first name to our line, and knowing that the men who came to the US from Ireland had little to nothing in terms of personal wealth, I had dismissed any idea of our line coming from the line that held so much land.  Perhaps I will take another look and keep working at finding a link.

You have affirmed an idea I have had to start looking for the David Francis Grant in other places than the Rathpatrick area... perhaps I will take a closer look at Wexford and even Waterford.

Kilkenny / Re: GRANT family in IVERK

Hello.  I have researching my husband's family and have traced the family back to William Francis Grant, who came to the US in the mid-1800's. The information I have states that he was from Rathpatrick, Kilkenny.  Somewhere over the past 15 years, I also came across info that his father was David Grant.  Would be interested to connect the dots (so to speak) with more family in Iverk.

One Name Studies: A to G / Blue family of Argyllshire

I am researching the Blue family from Argyllshire - Kintyre, I think.  Our ancestor is Malcolm Blue, married Elizabeth and emigrated to Cumberland Co., North Carolina before 1800.  Their children: John, James, Daniel, Malcolm, and perhaps Duncan.

Anyone have information about this family - or belong to it??

Hello!  I, too, am researching the Grants of Iverk.  My hubby's g-grandfather (William Francis Grant, b. 7 May 1836) is documented as having emigrated to America in 1859 from Rathpatrick, Kilkenny... and Dead end!  I would love to connect with you to learn what you have discovered!
