Hi Mike, Thanks for the site. I descend from Piers Butler on my great great

grandmother, Jane Sargint/Sargeant who was an Anglican and who became a

Catholic when she married John Coumans. They had their first child of seven

children in Canada, a daughter, Mary Coumans, in 1826, in New Brunswick.

They were both born in Ireland, with Jane being born in Clonmel, County

Tipperary in 1800. She was the daughter of John Sargint/Sargeant and

Catherine Beauchamp. John Sargint was the son of Mary Bagnal and Richard

Sargint, and it is from Mary Bagnal's family that I descend from Piers

Butler. They had married in the Anglican Church(Church of Ireland) in Cahir,

Ardfinnan C of I, in May 1771. I know of the family from Jane Beauchamp, and

am trying to find Mary Bagnals' parents and grandparents. This line descends

from George Bagnal, grandson of Nicolas Bagnal who was Marshall of Ireland

for Elizabeth Tudor, and who died at Greencastle in Newry. Gabe
