forgot to mention - there are two civil parishes in Co. Wicklow named Kilcommon - so this might be why Ryan's and the RCBL List appear to conflict.

Kilcommon parish in the barony of Ballinacor is located in the south west of the county, and close to Co. Carlow. It includes the town of Tinahely and the townlands of Mullans North and Mullans South.

The other Kilcommon parish is to the east of the county and close to Arklow.

Thanks Jack,
All of those first names are in our family tree.  Probably related somehow. My William born 1785 and his son William born 1804. Both
died in Canada. William Jr. had a son Henry and a son Thomas. Thanks for this information.

Thanks for this information.  What is RCB list?  Son Stephen's baptism is found in 1821 in parish of Kilcommon (he was born 1819 in Ballinglen). I paid a researcher for that.  She also suggested the possible parents of Abraham and Alice in Aghold, as did another lister.

My apologies Peggy as I have simply written my message without thinking, I was actually speaking of headstones Transcripts I have for Kilcommen Brownrigg family which although later than your dates links to Mullins which gives a link to your family townland, the other thing is I have never noted the name Abraham linked to Brownrigg, lots of Williams lots of Richards i do have a William ( died 1797) married to a Alice Nickson, with a son who died in India,

There is of course the Brownrigg family of Mount Nebo and there are a few of us who have been and have chased the name Brownrigg around Carlow, Wicklow and other counties in Ireland but we have not been able to gather enough to  link all and sundry that we have, but should you desire that headstone transcript which is around 1868-What I do find interesting is that a Reverend Theobold Brownrigg is buried with this family also and  a Reverend Thomas either of these could hold a clue to your family search

Cheers for the moment
Cara

I am NOT a Brownrigg expert but this is what I have for you;

John Brownrigg (circa 1730????) a chandler, was married to a Mary...
They had 600 acres at Craiguemore Townland
It was split among 3 sons
William Brownrigg
John Castleton Brownrigg
Abraham Brownrigg who married Alice Nixon. 
They baptized son William Oct 19 1785  at CoI Aghold Parish when living at Mullins Townland
They alo had children John 1782, Mary Ann 1783 Abe, Patience, Richard, ...all born before 1789

Hope this helps.

My interest derives from wanting to know something of Henry Brownrigg of Craiguemore  1782-1849.  Perhaps his father  was Abe or William or John, all circa 1760?? of Craiguemore.   He married Elizabeth Hopkins May 25, 1807 at Clonegal.   She was from Garryhasten inthat Parish but I cannot connect her to other Hopkins in that area.   Anything you know would be helpful.

Doe anyone have Kilruh Parih records?   I have a Jacob Brownrigg buried May 29 1809 at age 30.   Also a Jacob buried May 29 1809 with Elizabeth (Hopkins) at age 70.   There must be a transcription error.

Shane,
Which Kilcommon Parish would include Ballinglen, where son Stephen was baptised?
Thanks
