Protestant Barrys in C19 Ireland
Hello fellow travellers on the trail of mysterious Barry Ancestors!
I wonder if anyone can be of help.I belong to a very small family of Protestant Barrys in Ireland, we have no blood Barry relatives that we know of, but I'd like to find out more about my Barry Ancestors.My Father, Trevor James Barry, (b. Dublin 23/04/26) is the only son of Copper Crawford Barry (A Tea Planter in Ceylon) but from Ireland and Eileen Moore.He in turn appears to have been the only son of a JWC Barry, (husband of Beatrice Crawford)a Bank Mananger in Nenagh.We know nothing about his ancestors or much else about him.Even his mname is a mystery - The C of JWC appears to be Cooper, and I might guess that JW stands for James William, but I am not sure.Protestanrt Barrys seem to be relatively rare, we are members of the Church of Ireland.If anyone thinks that they might sense a connection, please tell me or if anyone can suggest a way to further my amateur bumblings, please advise me. There is a vague family feeling that JWC or his father may have come from Scotland.I have tried the Mormon Genealogical Database but have had no luck.
Thankyou.
Keith Barry
