Hugh Duigenan, father of Patrick Duigenan, Dublin c.1746

swresearch — 2009-10-04 22:24:22Z

Book "Succession of clergy in the parishes of
S. Bride, S. Michael le Pole and S. Stephen, Dublin.
by William George Carroll and William Reeves.
Published 1884.
p.22. In 1746 (Rev.) Dr. King (incumbent of S. Bride's ?)
moved the parish school (S. Michael le Pole / Poole ) from Golden-lane and Mouden-lane to the house No. 8, Little Ship-Street where he had for schoolmaster the father of the celebrated Dr. Patrick Duigenan, and the boy "Paddy" himself as one of the scholars.

Was Dr. King or his father from Derry where it has been stated Patrick Duigenan's grandfather, Francis Duigenan, was a physician during the siege. Was Hugh Duigenan, father of Patrick Duigenan, or Francis Duigenan a clerk (minister) to Bishop King in Derry before going to Dublin ?

Patrick Duigenan "Public Characters of 1798-9". Dublin, Ireland

swresearch — 2009-10-03 06:24:47Z

"Public Characters of 1798-9".
Edited by Alexander Stevens.
Printed by Sir Richard Philips, London, England.
"The grandfather of Dr. Patrick Duigenan was Francis Duigenan, M.D. a physician of considerable eminence in the city of Londonderry - and actually (as may be seen in the accounts of the time) bore arms during the memorable siege of that city, in defence of it and the Protestant religion against the Popish army of James the Second."

Patrick Duigenan was bc.1736 co. Derry, Ireland,
eldest son of Hugh Duigenan who may have been a
clerk of a Bishop of Derry.
(ref. Trinity College Dublin student register
for Patrick's father).
Jerome Duigenan who was also a student,
appears to be Patrick's younger brother, both
being previously educated at the same school in Dublin.

Would they be related to the Duigenan / Duignan family
near Lough Derg, co. Leitrim ?
............................
John Carolan, Turlough's son, was patronised by Dean Patrick Delaney D.D.(1686 - 1768) and his wife Mary (? - 1788), who set up a fund of £1600 to allow the young Carolan to revive and recover all of his father's compositions.
................................
THE MEMOIRS OF ARTHUR O’NEILL
a) Dean Delany and Carolan's only son.
b) Duigenan plays for a bet in the Irish House of Commons
There was a harper before my (Arthur O'Neill) time
named Jerome Duigenan, a native of the County of Leitrim,
an excellent Greek and Latin scholar and a charming performer on the harp. I heard numerous anecdotes of him. The one that pleased me most was that when he lived with Colonel Jones of Drumshambo, who was representative in Parliament for the County Leitrim, the Colonel went to Dublin on the meeting of Parliament, ....etc.
........................
In a codicile to his will in 1811, Patrick Duigenan left a property, "Ballynascarry" of some 600 acres to his step-son, the son of his 2nd wife, who was my ancestor.
Ballynascarry is in the parish of Favoran also known as Foyran, co. Westmeath, Ireland.
This property had belonged to Matthew Nugent in the early 1700s who had connections to Castle Fore in north Westmeath.

Would anyone know this history of this property
or any references to Jerome Duigenan & Dr. Delaney ?
Thankyou.

I think this would be William Henry Duigenan of Walsall, England; he applied for a coat of armsin the late 19th century, and submitted with it his family tree. Are you familiar with the Web site for this family name? http://freepages.genealogy.rootsweb.com/~dignan
There is info. re this at the beginning of the page. I have additional background data on W.H which is not on the page, but I don't know anything about the pamphlet.
