I myself am interested in Margaret Agnes Webster who was born at Ballykeenan in 1888 to John Webster and Jane Dormer(?), she did a maths degree at TCD and married a man called Stringer, dying in Australia in 1955.

I am looking for some information about a family named Webster who moved to Co Carlow in about 1850 to lease a farm called Ballykeenan near Myshall.  I know that there was Henry Wbester who was married to Agnes Low.  Can anyone help me with either information from the 1851 census or 1861?  Myself and another researcher have hit a brick wall and would appreciate the assistance.
Thanks

Hi, I am a descendant of Margaret Agnes Webster. She and Archie Stringer had 4 children, one of which is still living. I would love to learn more about her.

Hi Kristy1 and welcome.
As you can see several of these posts are quite old but the posters might still receive emails.

It would be best to tell us what you already know and what you would like to know when you say you want to learn more about her.  :)

Thank you. Margaret Agnes Webster, she died in Australia in 1955 in an apparent bus accident and is buried in Melbourne. I've been unsuccessful in finding where she was buried, and any information about the accident. She completed a BA in Mathematics, but I was told by family that she completed a masters degree and was a teacher, so it would also be good to have this verified and to find out where she taught. She met Archie Stringer during travel back to England and they married. They settled in a small country town in regional Victoria, Australia on a soldier settlement block that was offered to or applied for by Archie as a sheep wool classer. They raised 4 children. One of whom is my grandmother who passed away last year, 2020.
