Caufield Home Page

Family of Alexander(1821) and Elizabeth Caufield(1825) of Leitrium and Cavan Counties Ireland

 

Prelude:

Like all pieces of History, the fun is in the discovery, events and understanding of people and how they lived.  This home page isn’t a finished product but a ongoing process.  It seems like the more we discovery the more we want to ask.  Please feel free to contact us in regard to this Home Page, your comments and additions are welcome.  Our special thanks to Phyllis and Sheri Smith as well as Jack and Diane Caufield for without them their would be no Web Site.  In addition, I would like to thank Richard Caulfeild Hawkes for his assistance and support and recommend his Web Site for further information on the Caulfeild Family.

 

The Beginning:

The Caulfeild family name can currently be traced back Shopshire England. Existing is a Will of Alexander CAUFEILDE, of Coedigo, near Shrewsbury, dated 1581. The family moved to Oxford about 1560 when Alexander's brother James became a Canon at Christ Church, Oxford. They lived at Great Milton, and the children of Alexander born from 1561 onwards are recorded as christened there. From then on the 'L' appears in the name, making CAULFEILD. The family name is variously recorded at the time as Cawfield, Calfhill, Callfilde and other minor variations. Names were often distorted, being written down as they sounded to those listening. Alexander’s son Toby was born in 1565, joined the army around 1585 and went to Ireland with Essex on his expedition of 1599. Toby took the title name of CHARLEMONT when created a Baron in 1620, having been made a Knight ("Sir Toby Caulfeild") in 1603. So at his death in 1627 he was Sir Toby Caulfeild, 1st Baron Charlemont. A Viscountcy was later added to the 5th Baron, and an Earldom to the 9th Baron (and 4th Viscount). The Earldom died out with the death of the 3rd Earl in 1892, but the titles of Viscount and Baron passed on to cousins. The present 19th Baron and 15th Viscount lives in Canada. See Origins of the Caulfield Name and History .

 

Although as yet, there is no direct tie found, between Alexander Caufield and the Caulfeild Family Lineage a story is told by our father from his Aunt Ella (1871) as follows: The Caufield name was originally spelled Caulfield with a (L).  However, one of the sons (believe 1st born) was smitten with a young maiden who worked for the family and wanted to marry her.  Since the family was of some stature the father forbid such a union.  The son married her without the father blessing and dropped the (L) from the Caulfield name. The Caulfield Family lineage contained an Earl which Ella was especially proud of.  She would remind the Caufield children of their need to behave in a proper manner because of their heritage. Ella’s  son, Hilbert Jenison traveled to Ireland in WWI and visited the Caulfield family bringing back pictures of the family that Dad remembers being shown by Ella when he was a child. It should be noted that Alexanders Obit states he was of  sturdy Scotch Irish Stock and was born in County Cavan.  His family reportedly were also rabid Orangeman and some of his Great Grandchildren were not allowed to wear green on St. Patrick's Day even after several generations of living in the U.S.

 

This story is very similar to family lore reported from another Caulfield on an ancestory message board. In this story a Robert Caulfield (B about 1800) was in the line of an Earl or Viscount.  However, he chose to marry Mary Bradly an Irish innkeeper’s daughter.  Due to his choice in marriage he supposedly lost all monies, land and titles.  Supposedly they emmigrated to the the US about 1845, first to South Carolina then Baltimore with at least one son James Albert (B. about 1823). James Albert married Margaret Sharp. They had four children, Albert William, Mary Emma, Leonora and Robert Henry Francis.  Albert William married Rosalie Hamiltion. They lived in Baltimore and had ten children. Unfortunately, this message was posted over 3 years ago in 1999 and the email contact is no longer active. 

It should be noted that the given name Robert was used with some frequency in the Ven John Caulfeild of Benown family but rarely elsewhere in the Caulfeild lineage.  In addition, the birth date of Robert Caulfield’s children could be compatible with that of Alexander Caufield.

 

The Caufield/Caulfield family name became prevalent in Scotland as well.  Col. William Caulfeild, the Governor of Fort George near Inverness in Scotland, was a descendant of the original "plantation" Caulfeilds. A career soldier, he came over from Ireland to join General Wade in his suppression of Scotland after the Jacobite uprisings. As Inspector of Roads between 1732 and 1767 he was responsible for the building of 800 miles of roads through the Highlands. He was Governor of Fort George near Inverness from 1761 to his death in 1767. It is believed that most of his children gravitated back to Ireland. Col. William’s son, the Ven John Caulfeild of Benown was an Archdeacon at Kilmore Cathedral,  in the town of Cavan, Cavan Co..

 

The Ven John was not of the direct title line, but was a twice great grandson of William Caulfeild, 1st Viscount Charlemont, and second cousin of the 1st Earl of Charlemont.  It is becoming apparent that Ven John returned to Ireland in the early 1770s, having possibly grown up in Scotland and had his first formal church appointment at Coulsdon, in Surrey (south of London) from 1764-66. There is then a gap to 1774 when we know of his first appointment in Ireland at Knockbride in the Diocese of Kilmore. For the next 10 years or so he would have lived in Glebe Houses provided by the Church of Ireland Board of First Fruits (yes, that is what it was called!), as he moved from parish to parish, culminating in his appointment as Archdeacon at Kilmore (Cavan County) in 1776. His speedy ascent through the ranks was no doubt aided by the fact that the Bishop of Kilmore was a family connection! My guess is that Castle Cosby (Cavan County) was provided by a local benefactor for the use of senior Cathedral clergy, or he may have rented it which was quite usual then. It was perhaps no coincidence that the Cosby family came from Stradbally, where his parents' estate of Raheenduff was situated. He was probably based at Castle Cosby for the next 35 years until a final move north in 1810 to Derryloran, which is the parish of Cookstown, Co Tyrone. The last three of his children were probably born at the Castle and all the children would have grown up there, including Alexander Gordon (b.1776) about whom we know nothing other than that he "drowned in the Ganges". Incidentally, the name 'Castle' in Ireland does not necessarily imply a huge fortified building. They are sometimes quite modest houses on the site of former Plantation fortified bawns, and sometimes with the old ruin adjacent.

His father, Col William Caulfeild of Fort George, died in 1767 by which time John and his elder brother Wade Toby were the only surviving sons. There would have been an inheritance, Wade Toby getting the Raheenduff estate and John the remainder. My guess is that John spent his money on land in Co Westmeath to the north of Athlone, principally Benown. So to call him "Ven John of Benown" is perfectly correct. How it was that he came to choose the Athlone area we do not know. A good house was built at Benown around 1800, and eventually sold by his grandson Robert (of Bloomfield, Camolin and Coolamber).  Courtesy Richard Caulfeild Hawkes

 

Based on the collaboration of two similar stories it seems likely that an “Errant Caufield/Caulfield” may have existed and that an out of place marriage did occur. The fact that their were Scotch/Irish Caulfeilds in Cavan County of a high stature suitable for such a scandal adds credence to the possibility of such a happening.  The given name of Robert and the birth dates are consistent with such an event. The unknown father of Robert could have been Alexander Gordon Caulfeild b. 1776, one of the sons of Ven John, or one of his other sons for that matter. Very little is known about some members of the family at the current time.  Although we may never find a recording of such an event, I for one, will give our “Aunt Ella’s” family Lore it’s due.

 

The Maneely (Meneely, Mineely, Miennely, Mcneely) Family Name appears to be a derivative of Mac Neill of Barra, Outer Hebrides, Scotland. In 1605-1609 the plantation of Ulster was started. Presbyterians from Scotland were sent to Ulster to displace Gaelic-Irish Catholics (who were either driven to western Connaught or stayed inUlster as peasant laborers) and to strengthen English rule (see Ireland Historical Background ).  The first appearance of the name in LDS records appears in 1679 with the marriage of Elizabeth Maneely. It is followed by another entry of a  John Maneely (abt. 1735). It is possible that there is a lineage connection to Elizabeth Caufield from these earlier entrys. Research on the Maneely Family Lineage is ongoing (see Origins of the Maneely Name and History) .         

Reportedly Alexander and Elizabeth migrated with other members of the Maneely Family from Cornaugh Township, Carriagallen Parish, Leitrium County, Ireland. There was a high degree of unrest in the area, which collimated in 1798 when the the oppressed Presbyterians, supported by the Catholic population, led a rebellion against the Government and the Crown. It was a bloody civil war, which we know involved great numbers on both sides from the parish, and ended in September of that year with a massacre of rebels at Ballinamuck. Freedom and equality were eventually granted in the 1820’s for both Catholics and Presbyterians.  Following the famine of the 1840’s, as before in local famines, disease and afflictions continued to plague the people of the parish.  The Parish rapidly depopulated from a high of 8100 prior to the famine to 3500 by the end of the century reducing further to 251 today (1996).
It should be noted that the Caufield Family was one of the Very Early settler families in America. The establishment of Jamestown (the first major English settlement) began with the arrival of English ships in 1609( the starving year) and 1610.  No Caufield’s were noted on the initial voyages so the family must have imigrated at a later date.  Tobacco was grown by 1612  with its first shipment arriving in England by 1614.  By 1639 Jamestown had exported 750 tons of tobacco to Europe and was a boomtown.
It appears that a Gentlemen by the name of  Captain William Caufield (B abt. 1615, Lawes Creek, Surry, Virginia) {note the English Spelling} settled in the Jamestown Area (Surry side) by 1652 where he purchased 1,100 acres from a William Spencer.  Because of the spelling of the Caufield name (without the L) it is speculated these Caufields were from the the English side of the family where originally the name was spelled CAUFEILDE . William was a Burgess of the Surry side from 1657-1659.  William and his wife Dorcus ( abt. 1620-?  M abt. 1639 LDS) reportedly had two Children, Robert and a daughter. The daughter reportedly married John Collins, who arrived in VA, between 1634 and 1650 although LDS has his daughter as Elizabeth Caufield abt.1643-1676 who married William Seward producing 3 children.
Robert Caufield (abt 1641-1691 LDS), owned land and lived in Chippoakes Parish of Surry Co., VA. He also owned 1,950 acres in Southwarke Parish in the Hog Island area. Robert married Elizabeth Allen (M abt. 1670 LDS), who was born Abt.1638 (abt.1645 LDS) and was the sister of Major Arthur Allen.  Elizabeth reportedly married again to a man by the name of  Joseph John Jackman.  However, another researcher states that William, a son of Colonel Joseph BRIDGER(1628-1686) married Mrs. Elizabeth CAUFIELD of Surry. She was Elizabeth ALLEN.  Robert was appointed Justice of Peace in Surry Co. on June 28, 1642 and a Burgess of Surry side in 1676. He and his wife, probably did not have nay children since he left most of his estates to his nieces and nephews, including ... Elizabeth,  Katherine and James Children of Arthur Allen. Will dated January 2, 1691.  It appears their was probably a mix up between Elizabeth the daughter of Authur Allen and Elizabeth (Caufield) the sister of Authur Allen by some researchers. 
In Bacon's Rebellion of 1676, Arthur Allen's house was seized by a party of rebels and fortified. On Dec. 29, 1676, it was captured by sailors from ship in the James River who were engaged in putting down the rebellion. Arthur Allen, II (aka, Major Allen] and Robert Caufield, who had married Elizabeth Allen, sister of Major Arthur Allen, were with Governor Berkeley. Bacons's men were finally driven out on December 28, 1677.  Afterwards Allen and Caufield brought suit against some of the participants for damage..

Ireland Historical Background

 

Effective family history research requires an understanding of the historical events that affected your ancestors and record keeping. Learning about wars, local events, laws, migrations, settlement patterns, and economic or religious trends may help you understand family movements. These events may have led to the creation of records that mention your ancestors.

Your family history research will be more interesting if you learn about the events that shaped your ancestors' lives.

 

Historical Overview

 

1002-14 Brian Boru created a united Irish Kingdom.

 

1169-1270 The Normans invaded Ireland from England. A feudal system was imposed, and modern agricultural practices were introduced. Towns and cities were built. English common law was practiced. The government was centered at Dublin in the "Pale". Norman-Irish lords held 70% of the Island. The Gaelic-Irish held lands in the northwest and southwest.

 

1270-1484 The Gaelic-Irish gradually took back most of Ireland, and the Norman-Irish became assimilated into the Gaelic life and language. Toward the end of this period the Norman-Irish familyof Fitzgerald of Kildare effectively governed Ireland while the English crown was busy with various wars at home and with France.

 

1494 The English crown officially claimed Ireland as part of England. Meetings and legislative drafts of the Irish parliament were subject to the control of the English king and council. But in 1496, Kildare, the lord deputy who had ruled Ireland before 1494, was reinstated.

 

1541 Henry VIII of England became King of Ireland.

 

1550s & 1580s English families were sent to Ireland to receive estates from the crown as rewards for service. Civil servants received lands in Munster province. Many Irish families were displaced.

 

1560 The Anglican church (Church of Ireland) became the state church of Ireland under Elizabeth I.

 

1558-1603 During Elizabeth's reign, any who challenged her authority were punished with a "scorched earth" policy and the sword.

 

1607 Ninety-nine Gaelic-Irish earls, who refused to accept the "surrender and regrant" land policy of Elizabeth I and her successor James I, left Ireland for the continent, never to return. This marked the end of the old Gaelic order and established England as the conqueror of Ireland.

 

1605-1609 The plantation of Ulster was started. Presbyterians from Scotland were sent to Ulster to displace Gaelic-Irish Catholics (who were either driven to western Connaught or stayed inUlster as peasant laborers) and to strengthen English rule.

 

1619 The earliest known Church of Ireland parish register (St. John, Dublin) was begun.

 

1634 A law was passed requiring that Church of Ireland registers be kept.

 

1637 Presbyterian worship was suppressed by the Church of Ireland.

 

mid-1600s The Quaker, Congregationalist, and Baptist movements began.The Huguenot migrations to Ireland also began.

 

1641-49 Ulster natives overthrew English colonial rule, and Irish rebels (an alliance of the Gaelic-Irish and Norman-Irish) established a Catholic government called the Confederation of Kilkenny.

 

1649-52 Oliver Cromwell crushed the rebellion in Ireland. Catholics who could prove they had not been involved in the rebellion were given estates in West Clare. During the Cromwellian Plantation, lands were confiscated from the Norman-Irish (Catholic) lords and awarded to Protestant supporters, mainly in the counties of Leix, Offaly, Tipperary, Wexford, Leitrim, and Longford.

 

1674 The oldest known Presbyterian register (Antrim, County Antrim) was begun.

 

1690 The Irish Parliament was established in Dublin.

 

 

1695-1728 The Penal Laws against Catholics were in force. Catholic clergy were banished. The Catholic church was forbidden to keep parish registers, and Catholics were deprived of the rights to own property, hold office, and vote.

 

1719 The Toleration Act was passed, protecting Protestant dissenters.

 

1726 Nonconforming Presbyterians separated from the main Presbyterian body to form the presbytery of Antrim.

 

1720 British Parliament began to legislate for Ireland, and the British House of Lords had the powers of a supreme court in Irish law cases.

 

1747 The Methodist movement began.

 

1750s Some Catholic registers in urban parishes were begun. Many Church of Ireland registers were begun.

 

1772-95 Catholic Relief Acts gradually restored the rights taken away by the Penal Laws.

 

1782-93 An act was passed validating marriages performed by Presbyterian ministers (1782). Legislative acts gave power back to the Irish Parliament and more rights to Irish Roman Catholics.

 

1800 Ireland united with England and Scotland to form the United Kingdom of Great Britain and Ireland.

 

1819 The Presbyterian church began to require its ministers to keep records.

 

1821 The first genealogically useful census was taken.

 

1829 Irish Catholics became free to practice Catholicism without legal persecution. Many Catholic records were begun.

 

1845 Civil registration of non-Catholic marriages began.

 

1845-49 Potato Famine. Blight destroyed the potato crop for several consecutive years, resulting in starvation and disease. Over a million died and millions more emigrated. 1850-1914 Emigration continued, which helped to stabilize the economy.

 

1850 The Reform Act was passed, basing the right to vote on occupation rather than on property ownership.

 

1858 The Principle Probate Registry began proving Irish probates.

 

1864 Civil registration of births and deaths began. Marriage registration began to include Catholics.

 

1869 The Church of Ireland ceased to be recognized as the state church.

 

1876 A law was passed requiring Church of Ireland registers to be stored in the Public Record Office, Dublin.

 

1878 The 1876 storage law was amended to allow Church of Ireland ministers with suitable storage facilities to retain their records.

 

1919-22 Civil strife resulted in 1,468 deaths. A treaty, signed on 7 January 1922, split Ireland into the predominantly Catholic Republic of Ireland and the predominantly Protestant Northern Ireland.

 

1922 Irish Civil War. Irregulars of the Irish Republican Army opposed to the 1922 treaty occupied the Four Courts building where

many Irish records were housed. The building was burned and many records destroyed. A separate record repository was established for Northern Ireland. The Public Record Office, Dublin, burned, destroying

many Church of Ireland parish records and other documents of genealogical value.
