Armed Forces / John Dowd, 1838-1842 - 1909, Boyle, Roscommon, 14th Foot Regiment
« on: Thursday 01 April 21 13:57 BST (UK)  »
Hello,

I have a part brick wall. I'm looking for the mother's name of my great great grandfather John Dowd and possibly any siblings he had.

He was born in Roscommon around 1837-1842 - his father on his marriage record to Catherine Tansey is listed as Patrick Dowd, a Labourer. On the 1901 census he is listed as being 63 years of age, making him born in 1838/9 & on his death record in 1909 he is listed as being 67 years of age making him born in 1841/42. He served in the 14th foot regiment, his pension record below

Pension record
John Dowd 42 yrs born abt  1837
Birth Place:Bogle, Roscommon
Pension Admission or Examination Date: 11 Feb 1879
Regiment:   14 Foot
Rank:   Sargeant
Regimental Number:   1483

Bogle is likely to actually be Boyle.

« on: Thursday 18 March 21 00:38 GMT (UK)  »
I've been told that my great grandmother Alice Kate Seth born in 1894, Brentford Middlesex came from a Gypsy family. Her parents were John George Seth (1850-1909) & Ellen Susan Hubbard & siblings were Ellen born in 1879, Jane born 1884, Robert born in 1891 & Daisy born in 1896. John George Seth born in 1850; his siblings are Matilda born 1849, Catherine Seth 1853, Rosina Seth 1855 & marrying into a Gregory family from Hampshire it seems, Susannah Seth born 1857, Robert Seth born 1860, Emma Seth born in 1861, Mary Seth born in 1863, Annie Seth born in 1866 & Fanny Seth born in 1867 - all were born in Twickenham, Middlesex. Further back on the Seth Line, my great great great grandparents are John George Seth (1820-1892,) Twickenham, Middlesex) & Mary Susannah Turner (1823-1905, Wandsworth, London). My brick wall on my Seth line is my 4th great grandparents John George Seth & Catherine Perry, both born circa 1790, John passed in 1832 & Catherine passed in 1828.

Sarah born in 1835, Ellen 1841, my great great grandmother Rachel 1843-1915 who married William McCreanor, Richard 1845, Matthew 1846, Elizabeth 1850, Mary Ann & Thomas.
