Brouster/Brewster connection

KildareBallyshannon (Kildare)

Hi All,

I am researching the Brouster family who has 10 children all born in Ballyshannon between 1819 and 1836.

Robert Brouster married Jane Cunningham in Clogher, Donegal in 1818.

  • Ann b1819
  • Jane b1823
  • Robert b1824
  • John b1826
  • Margaret b1830-1833
  • William b 1833 d 1833
  • William b1834
  • Francis b1834
  • James b1836

The family left Londonderry in March 1837 on the "Adam Lodge" for Sydney.

The family were Church of Ireland.

Would love to link with any cousins of the family.

Welcome to Ireland Reaching Out!

Ballyshannon Co. Donegal is not a parish. You would want Inishmacsaint Donegal. No need to repost the message but you may want to join the parish. I looked on Roots Ireland and although they have Inishmacsaint C of I records, the only record that showed up was the baptism for Robert. See transcription below.

I went back and looked at the Inishmacsaint prior messages and found a September 2014 message and it would appear there would be a family connection. See link below.
