I would appreciate help in identifying/locating this gentleman, who married Isabella Clarke daughter of William Clarke of Farren, See http://www.h-f-h.org.uk/gallery/crawfords.pdf, page 46. Augustus is given as being of Old Court, Cork, but which one? Bing Maps gives five Old Courts in County Cork, two near Ballincurrig (probably a duplication), one south east of Cork city, one west of Skibereen and one beside Ballincollig. The last one is only a few miles from the bride's home but that may just be a coincidence. From Familysearch I have found that they married in 1872 at Macroom and that Augustus' father was a Reverend Robert Warren. Can anyone track down the parish where Rev. Warren was in charge or any more details? Many thanks!

The Church of Ireland section of the Ecclesiastical directory of Thom's 1872 shows a Robert Warren as the rector of the parish of Cannaway, post town is Crookstown.

see p 30 for more about the Rev Robert Shane mentions - think this is the one you need, as he does have son Augustus. Note that the parish area changed - last line on page.
The local school has this to say about the name:

Given the area and the first names, you might check to see if there is a connection with this family:

Cannaway = Ballincollig just about, that's excellent, and the Augustus Warren of Warren's Court looks a liely connection too, thanks for your immediate reactions Shane and PastMagic - it must be raining or nothing on television! For the record I have now found the three daughters of William Clarke of Farren, namely Maria Francis who married William Lumley Perrier Junior, Helena Evelyn who married William Thomas Schreiber and now Isabella and Augustus Warren, all from within a few miles of Farren. More trails to follow, and new sources to check, many thanks, Martin

That's great, and yes the Rev Robert Warren would have been a nephew of the first Sir Augustus Warren, elder brother to the Rev's father Robert, and both being sons of Sir Robert Warren of Warrens Court. Warrens Court (aka Kilbarry) is about 1km west of Crookstown and 6 miles west of Farran along the N22, and presumably part of Cannaway Parish. http://www.landedestates.ie/LandedEstates/jsp/estate-show.jsp?id=1886 is good.
Re the Schreibers, thanks for the information re the Suffolk documents. Annaghmore House is about 10 miles due south of Farran near Crossbarry and a mile to the east of Inishannon. The Landed Estates website also connects the Warrens with Annaghmore at some time. So that sorts out all three of William Clarke's daughters. People didn't travel far to match up their children in those days! Now onto Uncle Oscar in Argentina! Many thanks again, Martin

Who is Uncle Oscar in Argentina? ( I have family there myself since 1820) do you need a hand with him?
Pm

Augustus Charles James was the 6th of 11 children born to Rev Robert Warren (Rector of Cannaway) and his wife Mary Crawford, whom he married in 1824.
Cheers

Rev. Robert Warren, aka Rabbit Warren??
Thanks for that! There is a very comprehensive Crawfords of Donegal family history at http://www.h-f-h.org.uk/gallery/crawfords.pdf.
Re Uncle Oscar, I sent PastMagic a PM, I think! I guess I should start a new post, but he, Oscar Loewenthal, moved all round South America building railways was born in Germany, educated in England and Switzerland, married an American (or two) in Mexico, worked in Argentina, Brazil etc joined British army in WWI. but Argentina was his home from 1919 to 1946 - so I'll go for the Emigrants and immigrants board.

Hi
I thought you were looking for information on the Warren family - rabbits 'n all!
Cheers
-
Woodchurch, you did send me a PM - it slipped through the net! Sorry! Uncle oscar sounds great fun, I don't think I can add much to expand on what you do know, as my cousins had the 20th century covered, I only had to sort out 1820-1900. But I had a great time in Argentina! PM
