Looking for information on ancestry of William Barrington (b abt 1800, Ossory Diocese). He married Elizabeth (Eliza) Oakes (b abt 1805, Ossory Diocese) abt 1826, and lived in Coolkenna Townlands, Co. Wicklow. They had a daughter, Elizabeth (Eliza?) b Feb 12, 1837 d Dec 15, 1912). Griffith's valuation (1839)shows a William Barrington as a labourer on land owned by Earl Fitzwilliam. William may have married a second time to Mary Driver in the mid 1850's William's father may be of the Co. Wicklow Barrington's or, the Co. Wexford branch. He appears to be my brick wall. I have substantial infor on the Irish and, the English Barrington's back to abt 1025) that I am willing to share. Any info would be greatly appreciated
