Hi

I am wondering whether there are still people called Ward living in Portarlington, Laois? My grandfather was born there and left for England in 1916

  • Ha! I didn't think of that, many thanks. I've looked and there are 4 residential names. I wonder if they are relatives. I'll have to go visit and find out. Many thanks again

  • Erica, I am wondering what Co. in Ireland you are from? I am looking for ancesters to the Family of John Southwell Dee

    from Co. Waterford parish Kilgobnet.John had a son Nicholas Dee  1797 who is my ancester. 5generations back.

    Nicholas emigrated to Canada and married Rebecca Yeoman.He had a brother Maurice, Richard, Edmund,(Ned) and a sister

    Margaret Ann. I would love to find any connection to this Dee family. I understand the Dee name originated as O'Dea in co. Clare.

  • Hi, sorry I use the name ericadee because my married surname starts with a "D" but is not Dee! I am researching the Ward family from Portarlington in County Laois. Good luck with your search!
