When I get a chance I'll see if I can find out any other info for you as I am a member of Ancestry.com.

What do you mean by 'p m'?

Thanks,  Valerie

PS What is your first name?

I am glad I found your 2010 posting as I have not found many people researching the Darby family in Athboy.
I have Ann J born in Kildare abt 1860 and Ann S born in Athboy abt 1850. I recently found a descendant of Peter & Ann via Ancestry.com
I have just joined Rootschat and was told that after I post 3 messages (this is my third) I will be able to contact Rootschat members directly. I will try to contact you directly and see if I can get you a copy of the photo.
Are you related to the Darby family?

I wonder if anyone has any information on a family called Darby in Athboy.
I think John Darby married  a  Jacob from Kildare.   They may have had a shop on the main street. 
Any info welcome.

Hi, I do have some limited information on the Darby family from Athboy, Ireland.
I am a descendant of William (Gulielmus) b 1858 and immigrated to Australia (I have quite a lot of info on William).
I know that Peter b 1850 immigrated to the USA and married Ann Shaughnessy. I have a photo of the Darby shop that you mention in your original message. Other siblings are John b 1852 (married Ann Jacob), Ann b 1856, Mary b 1864 and Bridget b 1868. I have not been able to find any other info on the daughters Anne, Mary and Bridget and was wondering if anyone has any suggestions on my brick wall. The parents of these Darby children were William Darby & Bridget Fox. Thank-you in advance, Valerie

Now im totally confused...lol...Wonder why they have Wells as the middle name as we are ancestors of George so dont know now if we are actually Manton & not Wells... Im sure from Philip onwards she had them with Henry Wells, as he is listed as father on death certs, but was maybe still married to Manton so listed Manton as father??
Hi Karen, I have just joined RootsChat and was thriled to find this discussion on Matilda Herbert, Henry Wells & Elijah Manton. All this info is very helpful. My husband is also a descendant of George so we may have a family connection. Are you a member of Ancestry as I would like to make contact with you in an appropriate way? If not what is the best way for Rootschat members to contact offline or is that not recommended? Thanks again for all your help
Regards,  Valerie
