Clegg family in County Dublin - late 18th century

DublinSwords (Dublin)

Hello. I am looking for any additional information on the Clegg family who was in County Dublin, Ireland...particularly Swords. 

Richard Carr married Mary Clegg on April 20th 1794 in Swords, County Dublin. I have seen other Kerrs in Malahide, but I haven't seen other Cleggs. Both Richard and Mary were of the parish of Swords. They were in the Church of Ireland.

Richard's last name may have also been spelled Kerr, which may be pronounced Kurr.

Does anyone know any of Mary Clegg's parents, siblings, or relatives?

Hello McCoy,

Thank you for your recommendations on sites to find the Cleggs of Swords, County Dublin. 

I will take a look. They would have to be related to Mary Clegg somehow.

Thanks for the information.  

Best regards
