Hi
I can't remember if I contacted you before -I don't visit here often.
I'm interested in what yo can share about the Hamilton Land in Co Monaghan - places/townlands/dates/names. Part of my wider Dancey/Dancy family were from Co Meath, Co Monaghan & Co Cavan & 1 (Mary Dancey) in 1758 married into the Hamilton Family (to Robert Hamilton, Exise Officer of Navan. So any info that might help tie up my little bit later prosperous tenanted farmers in Monaghan would be really useful
Could you leaveme a private message?
Thanks
Roz

Hi
I've just found a site run by the Navan Historical Society that has some interesting snippets about 18/19 century Navan generally & some references to Rev Francis Dancey Hamilton (who was apparently the deputy to the Portreeve) & was instrumental in some of the scams of the time in terms of things like enclosures, & the overall way of running towns that was prevalent in Ireland & England. It adds some flesh to genealogy! go to

I have an ancestor who was a clergyman in the Church of Ireland. I don't have link handy (where I was able to view some pages online at one time) but the book is entitled "The Clergy of the Church of Ireland, 1000-2000, Messengers, Watchmen and Stewards." If you do an internet search, you will see the book for sale. If I find link I saw before, I will post. This book helped me learn more about my great-grandfather and even mentioned his wife and her father's name. Good luck with your search!

Hello Alan! My name is Seán Dolan-Osborne. Dr Francis Dancy-Hamilton is my g-g-great grandfather on my father's side.
I'm intrigued if you have any further information about this family.

Francis (Dancey) Hamilton
Hi Sean,
It's actually my sister-in-law who is the descendant of the Hamilton's, but I do have some basic data about them.
The names Francis, Dancey and Pochridge appear throughout many generations of this 'Hamilton' family, and without dates, I am unsure which individual is your ggg-grandfather. There is one born in 1837 with just the specific names you refer to, who married a Harriet Brooks in 1857 and who passed away in 1903. Is that your ancestor?
If you can give me the dates of your chap, I will pass your enquiry onto my sister-in-law for her to respond direct; alas they're internet access is only through me.
Look forward to hearing from you.
Alan

Hello!
Yes, that's the one. On some records his date of birth is between 1835-37 - I haven't actually seen his birth cert. A distant cousin of mine mention that the Hamiltons may be related to the Queen Mother's family - I'd never live that one down 😉

Hello! My g-g-great grandfather on my paternal side was Dr. Francis Dancy Hamilton, born 1835-37.
Coincidently, my mother's family have strong Cavan roots! I'm quite intrigued with the Dancy name. I note you mentioned a first name of Porich, which to me is the phonetic pronunciation of 'Patrick' spelt in Irish - Padraig - Given that the Hamiltons are clearly of Protestant planter stock I wonder if the Dancys have can be traced back to native stock?! I'm born & raised in Scotland by the way!
