THE FAMILIES OF FRENCH OF BELTURBET AND NIXON OF FERMANAGH AND
THEIR DESCENDANTS. By Rev. Henry Biddall Swanzy. x + 211 pages,
indexed, originally published 1908 at Dublin, Ireland. Reproduced
on 3 microfiche, 1989.
This interesting and scarce Irish genealogy traces the descendants
of George Nixon who died in County Fermanagh in 1702 leaving five
sons and two daughters. Another section traces descendants of
Richard French of County Cavan, whose will was proved in 1638. His
son's will is sealed with the arms of the family of French of
Galway, so the family probably goes back to those Norman roots. A
great deal of information is also given for the family of Swanzy of
Avelreagh and Harrymount in County Monaghan, descendants of Henry
Swanzy who was living at Avelreagh in 1688. A few of the allied
lines mentioned include: Armstrong, Barton, Berry, Blake, Browne,
Campbell, Coote, Curtis, Dawson, Enery, Erskine, Goold, Gore,
Grattan, Hamilton, Hassard, Hickson, Higinbotham, Howard, Hudson,
Jackson, Johnston, Jones, Knox, Kyle, Lawrence, Leslie, Little,
Martin, Meade, Montgomery, Moore, Morris, Nesbitt, Pigott, Pratt,
Reynolds, Richardson, Scott, Smyth, Somerville, Stanford, Stewart,
Thompson, Tisdall, Warburton, Ward, Wilson, Wood, Wright, Wynne and
Young.
