Magner Information January 2002 edited by JimMagner@aol.com Data posted to form 1 of http://www.magner.org/contact.htm Sent: Friday, December 28, 2001 12:19 PM > Post: Yes > Your Name: John Magna > Email: mertonhall@eircom.net > Surname: Magner > Area Searching: Canterbury > Date: 28 Dec 2001 > Comments: > Has anyone found any family history, which ties in to an ancestor working as a Station Master at Canterbury in Kent England, probably around 1870. I think that his name was John George Magner. He was my Great Grandfather, my Grandfather was Arthur Ernest Magner educated as a choirboy at Canterbury Cathedral, and apprenticed as a Photographer in London. He changed his surname to Magna when he became a professional Photographer. My Great Great Grandfather was as far as I know also named John and was a Lancer in the British army. Any information at all would be greatly appreciated. >

He arrived from Ireland to VA. in late 1699, with his brother Henry Hambrok and cousin Roger Deg. Later he is Patrick Hamrick, with thousands of descendants. Can Ainminer be Magner: (Mac) An Maighneir, descendants of Magner, on the distaff side, obviously. A DNA profile has revealed no connection with present day Hamrock families living in Ireland. I am seeking extinct branches in Munster. The name is recorded in Limerick area1750-1820. Thank you. John Spikes.
Subj: Magner website questionDate: 11/16/2001 11:09:40 PM Eastern Standard Time From: BM361 To: JimMagner Hello Jim, My name is Bob Magner. I live in Boston, MA and I am really enjoying your website. It was extremely helpful on a recent trip to Ireland and of course, Castlemagner. I am currently doing a family research project for school (I'm a senior at UMass-Boston), and I was wondering if I could use some of the information and artwork (crests, etc.) from your site. I was also wondering if you had any further information on the John J. Magner listed on the Naturalizations page as N-80, naturalized in 1896 in South Boston. I know that my great grandfather was a John J. and he lived in Charlestown (next neighborhood over from South Boston). He was married to a Cecilia, maiden name Donahue, and she gave birth to William in 1909. Any further information you could give me would be greatly appreciated. Thank you.

Further down in the Genealogy, there is mention of a James H. Magner, who was married to Elizabeth Claven Magner. The Foundress of Lauralton Hall was a Mother M. Augustine Claven, nee (I believe) Mary Ellen Claven of Norwalk. I was wondering if there was any relation, then, between Mother de Chantal and Mother Augustine. > P.S. A very enjoyable site that I happened to surf upon!

These extracts come from the JCHAS: William Magner is only mentioned as a juror - I've included some of the extras for what was found but not all. "The English Settlement at Mallow under the Jephson Family." By Henry F. Berry, I.S.O., M.R.I.A. JCHAS second series, Vol. XII, No. 69, Jan-March 1906 "By a Chancery Inquisition (No. 12), taken at Mallow 30th October, 1611, before the following jurors: - Edmonde Barrye of Ballyspillane, Cormock O' Callighane of Carrignemocke, William McRichard of Kiltoyg, Gerrat Arrundell of Aghidillane, William Magner of Castlemagner , Phylipp Coggane, of Cowlemore, Gerrote Barry of Leamlarye, David Nagle of Moneanymne, Donyll McCartie of Clandonyll, Garrett Barry of Downe, it was found that Sir John Jephson, Knt., was seised, in fee, in right of Dame Elizabeth, his wife, of the manor, &c. , of Moalloe, with all the cantred of Moalloe, the lands lying in Ballynferrykerrey als. the olde Towne, Ballingerrald als.

Magner The note beside his name said that he was Deputy to Sir Walter Raleigh, Knight, a person of rare endowments, take him as stateman, seaman, soldier or learned writer, being attainted of high treason, and the sentence lay dormant 16 years; and he was sent to Guinea 13 years after his conviction. yet, he was beheaded in the Great Court at Westminster; the 29th of October 1618. His motto: 'Tam Marti; quam Mercurio'" Take care, Jane
