Bishop James Caulfield of Ferns
« on: Friday 12 December 14 07:43 GMT (UK) »
Hi,
Wondering has anyone traced their Caulfield family history back to Bishop James Caulfield born 1732 in Saltmills Wexford (died 1814)? He was from a family of 6 children, father born in Co. Carlow and mothers maiden name possibly Downes.
Thanks

Hello, and welcome to RootsChat!

If you haven't already done so, a good way to make surname connections with other members is to enter your surname interests in the Surname Interests Table (SIT), and to check there whether others are researching these names. 

This can be found at http://surname.rootschat.com/ , there is a link to it under "Your Tools" at the bottom of each Rootschat page.

The more people who enter their surnames, the more chance there will be of making a connection!
