Looks like Cappanaboul could be right as there were Pattisons there. 

Two good sites for West Cork history are the following -

http://www.westcorkgenealogy.com/    although I did check for Audley/Blair and neither there under West Cork families but it has lots of other useful information.


Also West Cork history and in particular Durrus.

Hi,
Many thanks to all for all the additional information you have all provided it is going to take me a while to follow up all the links and add the new information to my master file.
My surname is Audley and my family moved in to Liverpool England around 1800 from Cheshire, England and as a result of that search I found the baptism in 1803 of George the son of George Audley and Margaret Audley formerly Blair.

The family of the Lord Audley (Formerly Earls of Castlehaven) is of secondary importance to me as by that time their surname was no longer Audley but Thicknesse-Touchet.

The person I am most interested in is Captain George Audley who married Margaret Blair in 1802. Could he in some way have been related to the Lord Audley family? I have some evidence from pre Castlehaven days that some of the children of Lord Audley used Audley as their surname rather than Touchet.
In his marriage George Audley is described as a Captain. Is there anyway to identify whether he was the Captain of a Ship, or a Captain in the Army?

Regards
Brian

Hi Chinapaddy,

Hi All,
Just a quick update. I have now managed to see a copy of the Newspaper identified by Chinapaddy. It would appear that George Audley was a member of the Cheshire Fencibles.
However the article does not give much more information.

I have alsi dscovered that the Muster Rolls for the Cheshire Fencibles 1974 to 1802 are in the National Archives in Kew London.

I think it will be next year before I manage to make the 500 mile round trip to the archives
