Text: (DS93) James Butler b. c. 1730 in Dunboyne, Co. Meath, Ireland “Said to have gone to Barbados "to take care of a family estate" and then, for unknown reasons, migrated to Louisa Co. Virginia, USA where he m. 6 July 1755 Mary Beckwith who d. 1758 giving birth to their son, William Aaron, who survived. Lord Dunboyne comments that whilst it is not possible to identify this individual with any degree of assurance on this basis of this information, one possible lead is that there was a James Butler b. c. 1730 of Tralee, Co. Kerry, son of Theobald Butler of Priestown, Co. Meath. Priestown was, for many centuries, part of the Dunboyne estate in Co. Meath.” In a January ’04 visit to Ireland, I was able to identify that there was movement of elements of the Dunboyne Butler family to land owned by other family members to the Tralee, County Kerry area. I am in contact with professional genealogical research organization in Dublin and plan to commission them to see if additional family linage information can be found.
