PARR family of County Cavan

[Bad Buoy]

Andrew PARR took his eldest, Thomas and youngest, John to Canada.  His second son, Joseph [with wife Margaret Bloomer and children] joined their father in Illinois some years later, as did third son, Andrew and his family.

Father and sons arrived Canada and probably left Cavan circa 1815.
The other two sons and families left and arrived in Illinois circa 1830.

I would be interested in any info anyone might have of the various PARR families in County Cavan.  I note there were a number of Bloomers also on the 1796 flax growers lists.

Though I know none of the relations in Cavan, I do know that one branch here in the States used the name Young a few times.

Anything would be appreciated.

Hopeful & curious,
Doug

And I've found that son Andrew had married his bride, maiden name Annis Parr, here in County Cavan also.

There are two names which run in the early American branch of this PARR family, Young and Alva.

As I've said.  Any information on any of the early 1800 PARR or BLOOMER families in County Cavan would be appreciated.

 Our daughter found your question on the internet and will reply to it.
 
 
I have a great amount of info about the Parr’s in Co Cavan and have visited the RCB library quite a few times, looking up their microfilms of church registers.
 
I’d be glad to mail you a copy of the Parr family tree which shows Young Parr son of Joseph Parr (1780?-1845) and Anne Smith.  Young (1815-1899) married to Mary Burns (1824-1900) and they had 8 children, one of whom was Margaret (probably should be Margret) and Joseph Henry.  I do not know if they had any children.
 
Sincerely,  John E

Am from Parrs of County Cavan and anxious to share Parr research. Please do an Internet search for "Proud to be Parr" and you'll get my genealogical website. At the very top... off to the right-hand, click on webmaster and  my email address will load automatically for you.

Seems both Bad Buoy and McCleyre are from England. I'm from Ontario Canada!

Anxiously awaiting word from either of you... both of you!

Anthony... please contact me too!.... same means I directed John and Doug to use (above).

In fact... ANY Parr researcher... the Proud to be Parr website is there for ALL Parr family researchers. You know, a base in which we can share our info in hopes of connecting the "dots" before it's our turn to cross over.

Thanks,
Trish

Mccleyre hasn't been online since 20 Nov.2009 and Bad Buoy since 8 May 2005 and both have only posted on this thread so there may not be a response from either. Anthony had posted detail from 1852 directory and was probably just helping with information rather than being connected to this family.
