  1. I am a descendent of John Rapell of Gorey, Co. Wexford. Can anyone suggest further places where I can find information about the Palatine Germans who came to Ireland in the 1700s?
    Thanks,
    Kathleen

  2. There’s an Irish Palatine Museum in Rathkeale in County Limerick apparently. You could try there maybe.

  7. I am interested in knowing information on the Oberbach family. If they were ever a part of the group that traveled and received the same priveliges. I know some of them have arrived in NY in 1709.

  9. Has anyone got any information on the Rath families around Kilcormick County Wexford. The Rath surname is not listed in most references as being Palatine, but its a common German surname, and Raths were listed on English Board of Trade Shipping lists in the first party of Palatine refugees arriving into England.

  10. I believe that I am a descendant of Philip Jeakle from Old Ross. I am looking for more information to link Philip Jeakle to his descendants Joseph Jeakle and Elizabeth Nappes both born ca. 1775 in either Old or New Ross. Joseph and Elizabeth are my 4th great grandparents.
