Title: Urey family
Post by: susanpatrick on Sunday 03 April 05 10:53 BST (UK)
Isabel Urey is somehow related to Francis W. Urey, born Down 1800.  All I know is that Isabel married Joseph Bell and had a daughter Nancy Bell in County Armagh. Francis W. Urey and Nancy Bell both emigrated to the US.  I am trying to find out anything I can about Isabel Urey and Francis W. Urey. Thanks

Do you have parents for your Francis and Isabel UREY?   I have a John UREY born about 1800 in Co. Down, Northern ireland but I do not know who his parents were.   Most of the family lived around Ardbrin, in the Banbridge area of County Down.   It is just possible that my John is a brother of your Francis and Isabel as those names are regularly used in my UREY family too.   Look forward to hearing from you - perhaps we have data to share.   Elizabeth, Western Australia

Elizabeth,
             You may already have this but there are wills listed in the PRONI Calendar Of Wills for a John Urey of Ardbrin who died 1868 and for Elizabeth, died 1889. See http://applications.proni.gov.uk/DCAL_PRONI_WillsCalendar/WillsSearchResults.aspx

Regards

We do not have parents for Isabel or Francis.  The only information we have is that Isabel and her husband Joseph Bell and their daughter Nancy Bell emigrated to Philadelphia PA from Ireland circa 1840.  Nancy was born February 1, 1826 in County Armagh.  Circa 1842 Nancy traveled from Philadelphia to Princeton, Kentucky to visit her uncle Francis W. Urey (a prominent merchant and coroner for Caldwell County, Kentucky).  During this trip she met and married James Early Kevil - she never returned to Philadelphia.
