Limerick / Capt. John Franklin b 1745 Limerick
« on: Thursday 01 November 12 02:13 GMT (UK) »
My ancestor Capt John Franklin married Anna Krause in St Croix , Virgin Islands. Presumably this was during the time his 97th regiment of foot was based there. John and Anna's three known offspring were Richard Augustus Meier, Peter Heiliger and Jane Anne (or Ann) Franklin. They were born between 1813 & 1815. I have been unable to establish all of their birthplaces except perhaps Peter's which we believe was in Limerick. I have been unable to ascertain, but I would like to know know where Jane Ann was born, and where and when their mother Anna died. She was considerably younger than John Franklin I believe. He died at Green Hills, near Lemonfield, County Limerick in February 1833.
The Franklin's were protestants. Could anyone tell me what parish or church they would likely to have come under please? I do know that Jane was married for the second time in 1839 at Limerick Cathedral.
I would love to hear from anyone who may have any information on this Franklin family, and be very grateful too. Thank you.
