Pitham's of Wexford Town

[carrieanne1]

Per the parish church baptism register Paul and Annie had moved to the Faythe by early January 1903 when their next son Michael was born. I guess he died in infancy as he's not in the 1911 census.

A sponsor is Mary Pitham, not sure who she is as there doesn't appear to be a Mary Pitham/Pittam/Pitman in the 1901 census! 

very interesting!!! Yes Mary Pitham mmm?? Don't believe I've come across a Mary before....I'llkeep an eye out for that one. Thanks :0)

Hi, Mandyric

I have never lived in Ireland, my Grandfather moved over to wales in 1922 during the Irish uprising's.

My family still live in wales but I live in Hampshire.

The names are pronounced as they are spelt just think of the old Irish accent in the 1800;s

Hi there. Not been on this site for quite a while and I'm writing this message by mobile phone so I hope this works :) after sifting through my grandmothers photos I found some interesting stuff. First of all, I found a photo of the original headstone of Bridget, Paul, Mary and John pithman. I noticed that this headatone was spelt pitman, whereas the updated headstone is spelled Pithman. Also I have attached a photo that conforms what I was told my my grandmother, that her mother, Bridget was a walsh. Im assuming that the photo I've attached regarding William  Walsh was Bridgets father... More evidence to get me digging again. I will look through my photos again, and hopefully share these. :)

hello, I am looking into my husband's paternal line and feel we must fit into this thread but can't quite work it out.  Maybe cousins?  Perhaps some one can help me join the dots? Certainly this makes very interesting reading.

My husbands family as follows:
GF is William James Pittham born 9/5/1900 in Batt St. married Mary Pender 18/5/19. died 4/1/66 London
GGF William Pitham b ?1875 in enniscorthy married Margaret Howard 13/7/1893. 1901 census lived 115 Faythe
GGGF ? James Pitham B about 1851 died 26/5/1883 in wexford gaol
GGGF William Pitham b about 1824 died 5/9/1884 wexford workhouse
thank you, maybe we might even have some family left in ireland

Hi,

Has anyone started up a family tree that we can try and fill the gaps in?

My grandfather and grandmother were William (Bill) Pithman and Elsie Pithman. I believe Brenda and Nan were my grandfather's sisters. Brenda and Nan came to stay with us in the UK when i was young. I would really like to trace the family!
