Hi Marc and "Lettys girl". This is Jane Happell. Marc, I'm sure we have been in contact before. I and a man in New Zealand are doing the Co Leitrim. Longford Percival trees. As you can see from above my mother was Victor's cousin. Can I do anything to help you?

The other families connected to these Percivals are McCormack, Jones, Dunbar,Crowe .Any relatives out there? John Percival leased land from the Earl of Granard as far back as 1782

Yes, I realise the counties are attached but Currawn ,Mohill (no longer on maps) must be somewhere up near Drumshambo or Aughriman and therefore at least 15kms or more away...a long time back then.

Longford / Same family of Percivals in Longford and Leitrim
« on: Monday 14 July 08 13:54 BST (UK) »
How could two families seem to be in two counties at roughly the same time. I have baptism of five children to John and Percival and Ann Rosemond in Clonguish Parish at Lissagernal..Alexander 1821,Elizabeth 1822,William 1824,Arthur 1828 and Eliza 1836.This was provided by Longford Genealogical society.
From the IGI (and I spoke to the man who extracted the records and sent them to the IGI..an American who was related to the Percival family)I found Alexander born 1822 son of John born Aughriman Co Leitrim and William born abt 1828 Aughriman Kiltoghert Leitrim, Elizabeth 1831 Aughriman too and Thomas. Now I have met the grandchildren of Thomas. They also claim that John Percival and Anne Rosemond are their g grandparents, in fact they showed me the grave and knew the inscription on it. The grave is in Drumshambo,Kiltoghert Co Leitrim.
Anne Rosemond's family were from Co Leitrim.
I need hep urgently as I am flying to NZ tomorrow to discuss THE TREE with another descendent of Thomas.
I am descended from Arthur. There was definitely a John Percival paying tithes in Lissagernal in 1829-33

Longford / Minard House Co Longford
« on: Monday 14 July 08 02:32 BST (UK) »
Does anyone know much about the history of what I know is now the local radio station? I have a newspaper article stating that Alexander W Percival (my family) (no Date) of Minard House Co. Longford married Miss Ella Moffatt of Drundrum House Ready(which I think should read Keady). I need to know more about his connection with the house.
