Searching for any one with links to the surname Colbert in or around the Waterford area. I know that the surname was prominent in this area of Ireland.

Hiya Welsh Jen,

There were several Colbert families in Waterford at the time of the Griffith's Valuation in the county in 1848-51.

Hiya Jen,

Would the Colberts who are listed on Genealogy.com Family Tree Maker online Colbert Surname Webpage... among others! be your ancestors?

IGI lists ...
Michael Colbert ... 7th Sept. 1828, Lismore, Waterford. Parents - James Colbert & Mary (nee Fitzgerald).

There's a Timothy Marks who married a Brigid Colbert and they were having children in Dungarvan in the 1820's.  If you are connected to them I'd be most interested as I have a feeling I may be related.
