Wall Family of Fermanagh

Fermanagh

A. Thomas Wall (b. abt 1791 Fermanagh) married Mary Sheppard (b. Ireland)

Their family were all born in Ireland:

William Wall 18071851

Henry Wall 18131885

Ellen Wall 18191873

Ann Wall 18211879

Thomas Wall 18231899

Henry Wall 1826

Mary Wall

Jane Wall

They are in Southwestern Ontario, Canada by the 1851 as their son William dies there.

Hoping to figure out where in Fermanagh this family is from as we are planning a trip to Ireland in May 2018.

Wall is not a common Fermanagh name. I checked Griffiths Valuation (1848-1864) and also the 1901 census for the county and there wasn’t a single person of that name in the county. I also searched for Wills made by people named Walls in Fermanagh on the PRONI wills site but didn’t find any.

You can search the Fermanagh Gold site, but I am not sure I can see any link to your family:

Without some further information on their denomination and parish of origin, you may struggle to locate them. Possibly DNA testing might link you to descendants alive today who know more of the family’s origins.
