My ancestors came to the Athlone/ Ballymore area about 1680. They resided near Moyvore and the names
Tobbercormick, Washford, Becksborough, Halston and Lisnagree, come up repeatedly. I am very keen to contact others researching this family and anyone who has information about them. Many thanks Clive Harry.

Playing about with this at the moment in tracking John Gamble 1777-1863 possibly married to Elizabeth Devis (1776-1845) and brother in law to St. Léger Didot
here's some info may not be accurate
George Gamble: Birth: Est 1613 in Of Maryborough, Cork, Co. Cork, Leinster, Ireland. Death: 1694 in , Co. Cork, Munster, Ireland son of Anthony Gamble (~1590), an English Quaker Merchant who settled in Co. Cork in 1650 at Great Island just South West of Cork City.
George Gamble will made in 1694
Mary, who married to George Gamble (a Muggletonianist).[9]
Muggletonians avoided all forms of worship or preaching, and met only for discussion and socializing. The movement was egalitarian, apolitical and pacifist, and resolutely avoided evangelism. Members attained a degree of public notoriety by cursing those who reviled their faith. Regular meetings occurred at other places at other times. Bristol, Cork, Faversham and Nottingham are among those known, and there were many others, especially in East Anglia and Kent The last Muggletonian, Philip Noakes of Matfield, Kent, died on 26 February 1979; the sect's records, which he had kept, were then transferred to the British Library.[20]
Grandson of George Gamble? John Gamble 1777-1863 of Maryborough Estate is in Douglas Cork City.
best of luck!

Thanks for your interest. We have records back to William Ganble who became a tenant to Arthur Shaen in 1704. He and his son Henry had land in Co. Mayo and Co. Westmeath. I believe the family came to the north from Ayrshire, Scotland at the time of the Plantation, early 17th century. Need to pin down exactly what was William's pedigree. Very grateful for the help.
