Meath in the late 17th century. This may take your story back a further generation to one Jonas Archer and his wife, Mary. The main subject of this article, Patrick Archer, merchant of London and founder of the Riverstown family, seems highly likely to have been a member of the Kilkenny patrician family and a close associate of the 1st Duke of Ormonde.<br /><br />https://archive.org/stream/s11notesqueries05londuoft/s11notesqueries05londuoft_djvu.txt<br /><br />Have a good one!<br /><br />Jack Masonhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01720984283672008456noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-704095971276575721.post-84830384913630981892015-05-25T20:21:05.866+01:002015-05-25T20:21:05.866+01:00Thanks again, Nick,(sorry to make you do look up w...Thanks again, Nick,(sorry to make you do look up work). You are right, Rev. Wm. Archer married my 2nd grt. grandmother, Elizabeth Thompson (1805-1878) daughter Of George Thompson, Esq., of Ely Place. They had 8 children; 4 males, 4 females, one, my grt. grandfather Rev. Wm. C. Archer, came to USA, & d: 1919, at my grt. aunt's house in MO.

Two daughters of Thomas Chamney are noticed in various editions of Burke's Landed Gentry: Esther, who married Henry Cusack of Moyaugher & Girley (d 1792) and Katherine, who married Joseph Swan of Trombrean, co Wicklow (1730-96). Their dates suggest they were perhaps a generation younger than Elizabeth Chamney and her husband John Archer, although one cannot be certain about this as the eldest and youngest siblings could be born 20 years apart. A Graves Chamney who was alderman of Drogheda died in 1794 and was probably another sibling. I will amend my text to indicate doubt on the name of Elizabeth's father.<br /><br />I had found evidence of Rev. William Archer marrying twice but was confused by the Archer/Gleeson marriage in 1815 which was obviously not compatible with the Archer/Guinness match. I have now found a newspaper record of his marriage to Elizabeth Thompson in Nov 1829 (Dublin Morning Register, 5 Nov. 1829) and will amend accordingly.<br /><br />Many thanks for your input!<br /><br />NickNick Kingsleyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03588322361791532910noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-704095971276575721.post-32242340624121400562015-05-25T03:00:15.017+01:002015-05-25T03:00:15.017+01:00Thank you for your Archer of Mt John blog. I'v...Thank you for your Archer of Mt John blog. I've researched my Archer family for years from my desk in California, USA. The family marriages/names can get confusing at times. I have one question: Archer, Thomas (1748-1830) of Mount John; Is he the grandson of Graves Chamney or Thomas Chamney? I thought it was Graves but I had not cemented it into my tree yet. My 2nd grt grandfather is Rev.Wm. Archer, Thomas' son. Rev Archer married twice. 1st wife, Olivia, who died in 1829 at her fathers house. Source: Westmeath Journal, which ran, on 06/04/1829, an account of death. <br />Mrs Olivia (nee GUINNESS) Archer 1829. May 27, at the house of her father, the Rev. Dr. Guinness, Olivia, wife of the Rev. William Archer, Vicar of Newcastle, in the county of Wicklow. Kathy D Anonymousnoreply@blogger.com
