Searching for Eliza McIntosh, John & Richard Talbot in Saint Feighins Church, Collinstown, Westmeath
I have just discovered and signed up to Ireland Reaching Out.
I have seen a post back on 11th June 2013 by a Wendy Eccles relating a baptismal register of a Church in Collinstown, Westmeath for a Richard Talbot, born 1846, abode Barbavilla and his father John Talbot's occupation is a steward and John's wife is Eliza McIntosh.
I would be most interested if anyone could help me to find Eliza McIntosh & John Talbot’s marriage record, son Richard Talbot’s baptism record and records for any other Talbot children.
I have had dna matches with a number of John & Eliza (nee Mcintosh) Talbot, with son Richard Talbots descendants from New Zealand.
The interesting thing is I am descended from an Alexander Mcintosh and his wife Ann Mcintosh (maiden name unknown), where Alexander was a steward and gardener for the Earl of Wicklow at Shelton Abbey, near Old Kilbride, Arklow, Wicklow.
Was Eliza possibly a daughter of Alexander & Ann 's ? DNA supports this as a possibility, the commonality as land stewards, but lack of records don't !
It is interesting to note that a John Talbot, agent for a Mrs Smyth, Barbavilla was forced to leave his position at Barbavilla following the murder of Mrs Henry J. Smythe sister in law to Mr Barlow Smith, owner of Barbavilla House on April 2nd 1882.
I would very much appreciate anyone’s thoughts, suggestions.
Kind Regards,
Lance
