Deserted Children, County Wexford, Ireland - 1846 Ireland Genealogy Projects Archives Wexford Index Miscellaneous Records Copyright Contributed by: James G. Ryan jim.ryan@circa.ie ________________________________________________________ DESERTED CHILDREN, COUNTY WEXFORD, IRELAND - 1846 This source lists 111 "deserted children" whose care was supported by the Grand Juries of Co. Wexford in 1846. The reference in the Grand Jury Presentments typically states, for example, "To be raised off the parish of Kilrush, and paid to Ellen Summers, for the maintenance of a deserted child exposed in said parish, and named Patrick Summers". The support ranged from 10 shillings to ?4. Each entry gives the parish, but only the barony is shown here. The names were extracted from the 1846 Spring Assizes of the Wexford Grand Jury which are on the Wexford County Archives website. https://wexfordcountyarchive.com/ CHILD FOSTER / CARER BARONY HALL, James Dempsey, Bridget Ballaghkeene BULGER, Ann Rowsom, Jospeh Ballaghkeene LANE, Mary Dale, Mary Ballaghkeene HALL, John Byrne, James Ballaghkeene COURSEY, James Gorman, Anastacia Ballaghkeene WALSH, Ellen Ellen Whelan Ballaghkeene ALICE Fisher Fisher,, Michael Ballaghkeene CARR, Spencer Steward, James Ballaghkeene LANE, John Hanstock, John Ballaghkeene BOLGER, Simon Rudd, Sally Ballaghkeene HALL, Esther Lealess, Thomas Ballaghkeene BARRINGTON, Thomas Barrington, James Ballaghkeene LEAREY, Mary Learey, Moses Ballaghkeene BEALE, William Dale, Mary Ballaghkeene HAY James Scott, Peter Bargy WALL, Walter Scott, Peter Bargy LANE, Mary Whitty, Catherine Forth GRAHAM, Elizabeth Graham, Catherine Forth STONE, Anthony Sinnott, Mary Forth CLEAREY, John McNamara, Tim Forth NEALE, William Neale, Bridget Forth WALL, Ann Shiel, Mary Forth WALSH, John Walsh, Margaret Forth CLIFFORD, Hope Dempsey, Mary Forth GROVES, Mary Dunn, John Gorey BARRINGTON, Thomas Barrington, James Gorey ASHWOOD, James King, Rev Robert j Gorey SINGLETON, Ruth Richards, Rev James Gorey OGLE, Hannah Richards, Rev James Gorey TYNDALL, Henry Dunn, John Gorey WALL, Sarah Fitzsimons, Thos Gorey KENDLE, Jane Meyers, Robt Gorey REDMOND, Mary Dunn, John Gorey WHEELOCK, Moses Nunn, Wm Gorey WALSH, James Gordon, Jane Gorey HILL, Mary Thompkin, Jane Gorey GREEN, Catherine Redmond, Daniel Gorey HALL, Lucy Seymour, Margaret Gorey SCOTT, Mary Doran, Ann Gorey WALL, Mary Bolger, Elizabeth Gorey WILKINSON, Mary Ward, Margaret Gorey HALL, John Thompkin, Jane Gorey MANGER, Mary Stacey, Catherine Gorey WICKLIFf, Elizabeth West, Mary Bantry CREACON, John Foley, Mary Bantry WALL, Peter Martin, Mary Bantry CARR, James Carstairs, Mary Bantry WOODS, Mary Bolger, Bryan Bantry NEWTON, John Miskilla, Mary Bantry WARD, Mary Ward, Margaret Bantry GREEN, Elizabeth Nevin, Catherine Bantry MEANEY, Patrick Hanlon, Anne Bantry HALL, Mary Foley, Margaret Bantry KEHOE, Patk Kehoe, Ellen Bantry GREEN, Luke Clooney, Johanna Bantry CLOONEY, Mary Anne Clooney, Ellen Bantry PLUMMER, Eliza Connors, Mary Bantry HAGGARTY, John Barron, Margaret Bantry HILL, Mary Byrne, Catherine Bantry CHURCH, Johanna Hawkins, Ellen Bantry WALL, Mary Hanlon, Anne Bantry LANE, Thomas Clear, Johanna Bantry DUFFIN, Bridget McNeil, Catherine Bantry DOBBYN, William Moore, Rev.
