3x Great Grandfather's surname

[sleepybarb]

I'm not sure if this is the right place to post this ,so if it isn't ,I aploogise now.I've just started looking at my maternal grandfather's side of the family at it seems his grandfather was a Daniel Cablashar born in Ireland in 1758.I can't seem to find that name anywhere ,Could it be mispelt on the 1851 census or is it a correct Irish surname.Thanks for your time in reading this

Do you have any other known names for people you think might be in the same household at the time?
If you try a search for somebody you know is in the same household it might give you another option for the "Cablasher" spelling.

Is the 1851 census the only reference you've found to Daniel Cablashar? Have you looked at the scanned image or a transcript? Have you found a death for him in England?

Thanks for the sugestions,I think I've found his daughter who would be my great -great grandmother.he was living with her and who I suspect his my ggreat grandma.I'm going to send for Ellen and John Grice's marriage cert and take it from there.also will trawl the death records.

There's a marriage (June quarter 1844 Birmingham) between John Grice and Ellen Callaghan. If this is the correct couple looks like Calbasher Callaghan has been mis-read as Callaghan Calbasher.

Opps- names wrong way around.

Excuse me for jumping on the Ireland Board which is not my area of expertise but think I can help.

I think the name should be Calligan.

1841 Census there is an Ellen CALLIGAN, age 17, born Ireland living in Birmingham.
HO107/1148/4/Aston

The Sister in law, age 5, on 1851 Census born Birmingham, could be Eliza Calligan reg March 1846 Birmingham. ( couple of possibles)

Maybe Daniels accent was hard for the enumerator.

Morgan is with his married Sister Eliza in 1871. Although down as a Lodger everything else matches.
