WexfordFerns (Wexford)

Dear members,

I would like to find some data about my great grandfather, Wiilam Lambert and his wife, Mary -.

I have almost no data from William Lambert), except that he was married to Mary - (born in 1824 in Co.Cork,

in 1824 and died in 02.01.1895, probably in Tagoat)

Their sons were:

1. James Lambert, bornin 07/26/1839, in Tagoat, Co.Wexford. Died in 12/27/1919 in Saladillo, Argentina.

2. William Lambert, born in 1846, Tagoat, died in 06/29/1932 in Buenos Aires, Argentina

3. John Lambert, born in 1850, Tagoat, died in 08/04/1894 in Bueos Aires, Argentina

I have more info about them (and theirdescendants) if anyone is ienterested.

I would appreciate any informationfrom William andMary..

Kind regards.

I've had a look for your Lambert family in Tagoat no sign of any promising matches (presume they were Catholic). Unfortunately the Catholic Baptism records for the parish of Tagoat only go back to the 1850s, so a little too late to include to include any of the people mentioned.

There's a possible match for William in Griffith's Primary Valuation which took place in 1853 (published 25th May 1853 for this area) - showing him occupying property at Burrow townland in Rosslare civil parish.  The property William leased consisted of a House and about 3 acres of land - see attached extract.

The Catholic Parish of Tagoat covered a a number of civil parishes, including Rosslare, Kilscoran, Kilrane, Ballybrennan, St. Helen's St. Michael's. The parish was named after the village of Tagoat which is located in Grahormack in Rosslare civil parish, there was a second chapel in at Kilrane to the east.

Burrow townland (Placename database-Logainm.ie) consists of just over 188 acres and is located on the coast, see the attached map extract from the 1st edition OSI map (c1840), and the entry for the civil parish of Rosslare in Lewis's Topographical Dictionary of 1837 - Rosslare, Co. Wexford

There are no Lamberts shown at Burrow townland at the time of the 1901 census, but there are 17 in the census district (Rosslare DED) that may be related on the male side, two households in Poolrankin townland and one in Trimmer townland. Do you know Mary's maiden surname ?

Thank you so much for your quick and detailed (professional, I would say) response. Yes, the William Lambert you mentioned in Griffith's Primary Valuation is the closest match found so far.

Their sons, who arrived to Argentina in 1863 and 1864 were also farmers.(shepherds).

Unfortunately, I do not know the surname of his wife, but I am still looking for this data and I will post any information I could get. 

Thanks again.

I have copies of letters between the Lambert's of Tagoat and Saladillo. 

I'm descendant of Stephen Lambert. His son William was one of the Kilrane boys, but he is not the William who settled in Saladillo.

Please tell me if you need more info

William (Guillermo) Lambert got married in Saladillo church Nuestra Senora de la Asunción in 1882. At that time he said his parents were: Michael Lambert and Catherine K...choc.

Document can be found through Family Search Argentina, Buenos Aires, Church Records 1635-1981, Saladillo, Nuestra Senora de la Asuncion.

Between the letters to his family in Tagoat, there is also a cheque sent  to Michael Lambert.
