Hesse family

[Wexflyer]

So sorry - I thought I had followed this thread - but can't recall any 'Palatine' mention (my age related brain shrinkage!)

The mention of Palatines was indirect, you had to go down the byways!

In reply No. 36 Heywood linked to a previous thread about a Hess family from Old Ross, Co. Wexford - a Palatine family. Here is a link for Heywood's post, containing that link

In reply No. 38 I then asserted that the similarity of family names and timescale made it likely that the John Hess senior of this thread was also from Old Ross.

Perhaps I should add:
In addition to the Palatine colony (as they were called) in Old Ross, there was another outside Gorey, on the Ram estate.
