We wear’t see much regarding William Blair Sr
He with his partner was basically Methodists when they arrived in Quebec, Canada
William BLAIR Sr. ( – 1822) try Alex’s 5th Great-grandfather; among 64 in this age group and the creator of your Blair range in North america.
His son William told some body he had been from Armagh – no urban area, no parish, no townland – you can find over 500 parishes for the Armagh making it hard to find the right you to definitely. He may have died during the 1822 from inside the Richhill Parish, State Armagh, Ireland.
Willliam might have lived in the newest Richhill/Kilmore Parish section of Armagh, Ireland. Sher Leetooze, Bowmanville, Ontario, Canada blogged from inside the 2008
In my opinion I’ve discovered [our very own Blairs during the] the fresh Richhill/Kilmore Parish section of Armagh, but can not be sure. Is there some one with the number who has use of Mullaghbrack BMDs? And/or perhaps the townlands in identical urban area? Looking for the beginning out-of William Blair 1780-81, perhaps child off William and you will married late in daily life – Sept 1822 so you can Mary HUESTON. Perhaps within or close Richhill, whether or not when they ily parish We have not a clue in which you to would-have-been – I can not get a hold of her anywhere. Hopefully, brand new Banns was in fact see both in parishes and that i will find the woman owing to their parish (if it is actually Richhill/ Kilmore).
Now, for as long as the list players try not to notice – this is what I am aware… William BLAIR, created 1780, Armagh, Ireland. BLAIR is actually a great Quaker, a good weaver and you will try left-handed (it portion turns up in just about any most other generation)
You will find an effective naming trend then though for children: > very first kid – called having father’s dad…
Here is what I was thinking I know….. Thought William and you can Mary BLAIR, died within Richhill Parish 1822 as their mothers – right place, best ages….. since the he had been both a good weaver and a good Quaker it was a fantastic nice plan to put him at Richhill where in actuality the Richardson’s got created a good Quaker appointment home in approximately 1803 and you can where it possessed of a lot townlands and you may rented cottages so you’re able to weavers, along with a great linen broker whom gathered from their website. Toward 1796 Spinning-wheel Advanced Number, William and Mary Sr. are detailed as the weavers within Mullabrack, suitable ages, then once the fresh new Richardson’s had founded their meeting domestic such exact same two people was basically several far at the Richhill and generally are buried there.
The things i now see…. very, the basic child was born in 1823 and you may entitled John – one sets the above guidance in order to others, does it not. > second guy – named having mom’s father … considering info, the next son is actually William, produced 1825 > 3rd child named to have father – better, the father are William, therefore, the next son of our information should be, in fact, the third kid – I must find a passing in the 1824 otherwise 1825 out-of a child. > 4th man is known as to own earliest sibling regarding father – which fits – another child is really so Thomas, and you will William’s elder brother Thomas performed actually emigrate to Quebec because better. Thomas’s earliest guy are named John, same as William’s, therefore i assume I have to see an excellent John?! > Including, to your Tithe Applottments getting 1825, there can be good William Blair at three townlands from inside the Keady Parish – Lagan, Iskemeadow and you will Tullynamaloge. I know there had been BLAIRs during the Keady for some time, but could never ever discover a great weaver William included in this – there’s a shoemaker, William, however, and that i thought that it is a faraway relative. Sadly, the fresh new Tithe Applottment index cannot offer a profession. > So far as getting a great Quaker, brand new Lisburn Conference claims he never paid registration – which he almost certainly attended meetings within the empathy towards Members of the family. > Nothing of your own details in Canada state just what element of Armagh they came from, just Armagh, or simply Ireland. > Together with, John Hayes, into the their web site, keeps transcribed the newest 1848-63 Griffith’s Valuation and there is a great James BLAIR at both Iskemeadow and you will Tullynamaloge townlands – might possibly be a sister exactly who never ever stumbled on Canada.
Do anyone know if the fresh new 1825 has actually job, and other suggestions? Could it possibly be convenient to invest this new $6 to get the movie into my local LDS FHC??
