Sutton family from Wexford County Ireland

Query by highland1dreamer

I have some info that my great great great great grandparents came from Ireland on a ship called the Robert Nelson in 1821 - the info is that he was born in 1774 and died in 1839 and the info for her says she was Susannah Swain born in 1785 in Wexford Ireland and married in 1794 - this part confuses me as she would have been only 9 when they supposedly married - and then info says their first son was born in around 1794 I find this strange if she was so young - the info I received cannot be correct - I know that they married young but not that young. They did have the following children Richard (who married a Susannah Sterne b. around 1799, this is my third time great grandfather - info I received says they married March 1, 1820 in Clonegal Wexford Ireland next there was Edward, James, Robert, John, Anne, Susannah and Margaret. Anyone out there able to elaborate further so that I have the correct information.

I have info that Edward Pos Sutton's father was Richard Sutton born around 1750 and died in 1810 do not know who his wife was. There are also stories that Edward's ancestors were from Yorkshire England and had been sent to Ireland by Lord Mountnorris (he was his best tenant farmer)???

My Suttons died in Cavan Township, Durham County, Ontario Canada.

Hello Highland1 Dreamer,

We have Ancestors in common.

I've been working on my family tree and I find it's confusing at times to find the right dates. For the marriage certificates, sometimes I can make out the writing for the years.

The marriage date I came across for Susannah Swain and Edward POS sutton is 1799. It's a work in progress working that part out on my family tree!

Susannah Swain (my Great Great Grandmother) born Wexford County, Ireland
(1783–1851) died Cavan Township, Ontario, Canada


Marriage
1799 • Wexford, Ireland
Susannah Swain

Edward Pos Sutton(my GG Grandfather( born Wexford County, Ireland.
(1774–1839)

My Great Grandfather is Thomas Howard Staples Sutton (1866 to 1929)


I hope to come across more of your posts here as I've just joined today.

Best regards
