This is a work in progress, I will open it up to public edits when the skeleton is done. Sources space: https://www.wikitree.com/wiki/Space:Uptons_of_Ireland_Sources

I think I will split this up, because it's getting very big. I could do it in 3 pages Page 1 Antrim Uptons, East and West Limerick Uptons, Leinster Uptons Page 2 Smaller Upton Trees Page 3 Loose Ends

There has been some DNA work done on the Upton name, here: https://www.familytreedna.com/groups/upton/about/results As it pertains to Ireland, there are five tests that I can gather from that text, three from around Newcastlewest, and two from the Ahnagurra Uptons, both in Co. Limerick. The two Ahnagurra Uptons match each other, but the three Newcastlewest Uptons don't match each other or the Ahnagurra samples. This would imply four seperate origins for these five samples. The author, GearĂ³id Kingston thinks that one of the Newcastlewest samples probably traces back to the John Upton who acquires a lease in Newcastlewest. If that's true, then the Ahnagurra Uptons, as well as the other samples don't trace from this John Upton, which was the hypothesis of WH Upton in Upton Family Records.

General History

According to 'Upton Family Records' and two other genealogies I found, the first Upton family to establish itself in Ireland came from Cornwall or Devon, and set up in Antrim. There was also an 'Ambrose Upton' who went to Dublin.

Then there's Uptons in Newcastle, Co. Limerick since 1694. I also found the baptism of an Upton in Limerick city in 1713, suggesting at least one other Upton there at a similar time.

There are also a lot of Uptons in Cork, I haven't figured out their origin yet, but there seems to be some there from at least 1730.

1617 - The earliest Upton I can find is referenced in 1617 in the Crossle Genealogical Abstracts, but I can't access the record itself.

Unsolved/Unproven Mysteries

John and Elizabeth who went from Limerick to Antrim

Is there mention of these two in the papers of Viscount George Upton? Does this prove a connection between the West Limerick and Antrim branches and if so what is it?

William Upton of Ahnagurra

The supposed progenitor of the East Limerick Uptons. Where did he come from? WHU says he came to East Limerick in the 1760s and suggests he may have been the Sheriff of Co. Antrim in the 1690s. WHU also says he 'acquired lands in Griston'. It seems there is no record of such acquisition. There is a Christopher Upton voting in Kilfinane in 1768. Is that him?

William Bayly Upton

What is his origin?

Uptons of Cork

Their origin. Some are from John Upton of Newcastle West but there are many more records present. Many are Catholic implying a separate origin to John of Newcastle West.

John Upton of Newcastle West

What is his origin? Are there records of the 1706 lease from Capt .Bourke or the other lease from the Earl of Devon? Of his various landholdings he says 'Col. Thomas Holmes did grant unto me' the estates of Ballynabearna, Ballymenagh, Glenstar and Ashgrove.' in 1694 Then he mentions Glenstar 'which I purchased from Capt, Nicholas Bourke by deed' in 1709 And finally 'upper and lower Ballyhennies, Farren Mullen, and Rathna-Connery, being part of the lands granted me by Sir William Courtney by lease'. The Limerick lands of the Holmes were bought in 1684. (http://landedestates.nuigalway.ie/LandedEstates/jsp/estate-show.jsp?id=2410) I can't find info on Capt. Nicholas Bourke. William Courtenay was the Earl of Devon (probably the 6th). A previous Earl of Devon received the lands of the Fitzgeralds in 1591 during the Munster Plantation. (wikipedia 6th Earl of Devon)

1 B Edward b~1785. Mentioned in Tithe Books of 1826, (http://www.irishgenealogyhub.com/antrim/tithe-applotments/tullyrusk-parish.php) probably father or son of elder John and died before the next Valuation in 1834. Can't find any other record.

Castle Upton / Templepatrick

According to Upton Family Records, Burke's commoners and John Lodge's Peerage of Ireland, a Henry Upton came to Ireland from Cornwall or Devon after being granted land by the Earl of Essex, presumably taken from local people. The papers with enfeoffment of Henry Upton are in the Northen Ireland Public Archives. Soon after arriving, Mr. Upton bought Castle Norton from the Nortons and renamed it Castle Upton.

Anyway Henry's descendants had a fairly interesting history, there were I think around 5 MPs in the Irish and UK parliaments, one fought for the English in the rising of 1641, there were I think 4 High Sheriffs of Antrim, 1 famous cricketer, a good few colonel's and lieutenants in the army, quite a lot of sea captains and navy men and 5 Viscounts Templetown.

They seem to have been absentee landlords for a lot of their time, and entirely from around the 19th century. An NI Historic Buildings Source says they sold Castle Upton in 1963. However there are other Uptons in Budore, Co. Antrrim and Belfast, I don't know how they're connected to the Templepatrick Uptons.

The Title Viscount Templetown became extinct in 1981 when the 5th Viscount, Henry died without an heir.

1832 - Elizabeth Upton death record https://civilrecords.irishgenealogy.ie/churchrecords/images/deaths_returns/deaths_1901/05730/4617035.pdf Died aged 69, putting birth at 1832. Also has a census record http://www.census.nationalarchives.ie/pages/1901/Antrim/Templepatrick/Village_of_Templepatrick/920841/ which says born in Co Limerick, yet is CoI. Is a retired Housekeeper rather than a 'Lady'. An 'Elizabeth' is mentioned as going to Templepatrick in WH Upton (p 130) but the Elizabeth from the book is mentioned as b. before 1825. A record in the paywalled Ffoliot collection is the baptism of an Elizabeth in 1829, but location is just 'Ireland'. If she went from Limerick to Castle Upton, it would imply preety strongly that these two families were linked.

1861: An Anne Upton gets married to a William John Ralfs 1861 in Drummaul: https://civilrecords.irishgenealogy.ie/churchrecords/details-civil/49ed5d3310023 father deceased, name not mentioned. Residence: burleigh hill, carrickfergus

Limerick

East Limerick (Athnagurra, Ballylanders, Curraghturk)

The first mention outside WHU of Uptons in East Limerick is a Christopher Upton voting in 1768, listed as living in Kilfinnane. WHU does not mention a Christopher in the area (or in West Limerick) and the residence is not given as Annagurra. Notably there is a William Adams listed in Annagurra in 1768 and 1778, but not 1761. There is also a Thomas Adams in Glenbrohane in all 3 years. The Annagurra listings are the only ones in that Townland for those years. Gristan is listed for one person also in both years, a Charles Massy.

Ahnagurra

This group alternately refer to their location as Gristan or Ahnagurra.

1 William b~1730 So according to Upton Family Records, the first Upton here is a William Upton who came around 1760 from west Limerick, probably around Ashgrove, and had three sons:

1 A William, b~1760 settled in Curraghturk, go to that section for that line.
1 B Robert b~1765, m. Judith Douney, settled in Ahnagurra
1 B E Mary F Johanna
1 B G Margaret, b. 1812, m. James Slattery ~1835
1 B A Bridget, b 1812, m. Timothy Regan 1838
1 B B Henry, b~1800 m. Alice Lee, went to Westport, CT, USA, had at least 2 kids
1 B C William settled in Ballylanders village, more in that section, had 3 kids, 2 sons, both in America. No wikitree page yet
1 B D Robert b.1813 m. Mary Coleman, 3 sons, 2 daughters
1 B D A William, b.1843 'in America,
1 B D B Robert, b.1854, 'in America',
1 B D C Samuel, b.1861 m. Mary O'Donnell, d. 1931, no children
1 B D D Unknown, b.1849 birth cert transcriber says 'Curly', which implies Christopher but UFR only mentions two daughters
1 B D F Mary b. 1851 https://www.findmypast.ie/transcript?id=IRE%2FPRS%2FBAP%2F0500084
1 B D E Margaret b.1855 mentioned in UFR only as 'daughter'.
1 B F Christopher, b. 1814 m. Mary Bourk, 1 son
1 B F A William, b~1851, m Mary Carroll, settled in Ballylanders village, more there
1 C Samuel b 1769, m. Mary Fitzgibbons, lived in Ahnagurra. 6 kids, 3 sons
'1 C B John, b.1801 m. Hanora Tobin, listed as 'Mary' in Bess's birth cert.
1 C B A Mary
1 C B B Bess, mother listed as 'Mary Tobin'
1 C B C Samuel, b.1840, m. Mary Daly
1 C B C A Hanora b 1863
1 C B B Anne, C Mary, D Eliza
1 C B C E John b 1869, m. Ellen Ryan
1 C B C F Michael d. unmarr age 30
1 C B C G James, b.1870s 1 son Samuel, 1 daughter Elizabeth m. Purcell
1 C B C H Samuel D moved to Farahy, Cork
1 C B C I Lizzie

1 C D Margaret, b.1812, m. William Cullenaw 1837
1 C E Mary
1 C F Eliza b.1809, address on baptism listed as 'Griston'
1 C A William b~1800 m. Johanna Fouhy 6 recorded sons, 3 daughters
1 C A E Betty b.1834, F, Joanna, b.1828, G Catherine, b. 1824
1 C A A William, b.1824 probably died inf.
1 C A B William, b.1834 went to America
1 C A E Robert , b.~1820 m. Joanna Ryan. UFR says 'not mentioned by brother', d.1868. This is the only Robert I can find whose dates line up with the Robert who m. Joanna Ryan. WHU says the Robert who married Ms. Ryan was son of Samuel 1 C A C, but the dates are impossible since Sam's Robert was born after Robert's children were born. The dates fit nicely here and I don't see another option, but there's no explicit proof.
5 children in the records, 3 boys, William, John and Michael, no records for the John and Michael, William seems to have died unmarried. No death record for Joanna Ryan. Also had a William (https://www.findmypast.com/transcript?id=IRE%2FPRS%2FBAP%2F0500598) who is probably this William (census 1911: http://www.census.nationalarchives.ie/pages/1911/Limerick/Kilfinnane/Ballinlyna_Lower/620790/ death 1933 https://civilrecords.irishgenealogy.ie/churchrecords/details-civil/9760d72612747?b=) not to be confused with 1 C A C Samuel's son William, born in 1869)
1 C A F John, died age 15.
1 C A D Christopher, b~1835 m. Johanna Slattery, in Queensland acc UFR. The marriage cert mentions them being '3rd degree cosanguinous', giving them the same Great-Grandparents, ie William Upton. Tracing records suggests Johanna's mother was Margaret Upton, so using this knowledge means Johanna's grandfather was Robert Upton (m. Judith Douney).
1 C A C Samuel b~1811 Had two wives, Margaret Scanlon and Catherine Cleary
with first wife
1 C A C Aa John b 1846, Ba John, Ca Debora, Da Mary, Ea Margaret, Fa Samuel Patt, Ga Kate
with second wife
Ab Elizabeth, Bb Bridget b 1867
1 C A C Cb Robert, b1872 Upton Family Records lists this as the same person who married Joanna Ryan and gave birth to the Joanna Upton who married Dennis Dawson, but the dates make this impossible. This Robert was born in 1872 and Joanna got married to Dawson in 1874. So, this or another Robert must've been from a different generation.

1825 - A Mary Upton gets married to Jacobus Flynn. (https://www.findmypast.ie/transcript?id=IRE%2FPRS%2FMAR%2F0094831%2F2) I think the place name says Athnagurra, and there's an 'Upton' witness which may say Guilelum or Samuelum, maybe the latter more likely. Probably either 1 B E or 1 C E. Don't know who these sponsors normally are, if they're normally the father than she might be that Samuel's daughter.

1832 - a Jacobus Upton marries Joanna Slattery. (https://www.findmypast.ie/transcript?id=IRE%2FPRS%2FMAR%2F0094984%2F1). An Upton is a witness, first name either Roberta or Robert. No Address given. Can't find any James in the land valuations. No idea who this is. 1850 - This could be them in Boston, America: https://www.familysearch.org/ark:/61903/1:1:MDS6-FZ7

1844 - Anastatia Upton marries Daniel McGrath https://www.findmypast.ie/transcript?id=IRE%2FPRS%2FMAR%2F0095432%2F2 No idea. No Ann or Ana here. Might not say Upton. Could be 'Johanna' though seems unlikely. Only Johanna who fits the dates is 1 B F, Roberts daughter. Could be someone who used a name different from their baptism name. - Son Thomas: https://www.findmypast.com/transcript?id=IRE%2FPRS%2FBAP%2F0329370

1857 - Samuel Flynn born to Michael Flynn and Mary Upton. https://www.findmypast.com/transcript?id=IRE%2FPRS%2FBAP%2F6105752 Can't find any marriage for the above.

1870 - Death record of a 'Robert Upton' https://civilrecords.irishgenealogy.ie/churchrecords/details-civil/dfb76c21913484?b= Can't see record Probably 1 C A E, who is probably the Johanna Ryan Robert. Maybe why his brother didn't mentioned him, he died 20 years before.

1872 - Patt born to Christopher and Mary Slattery: https://www.findmypast.ie/transcript?id=IRE%2FPRS%2FBAP%2F0501920 Possibly the 'Unknown' Curly 1 B D E above

1849 Valuation book has a 'Robert Upton' and a 'Upton's House': https://www.findmypast.ie/transcript?id=IRE%2FCENSUS%2FVALUEBOOKS%2F741294 Probably the b1800 Robert, he'd be 50 then.

1857 - An Elizabeth Upton marries John Sheely https://www.findmypast.ie/transcript?id=IRE%2FPRS%2FMAR%2F0095627%2F2 1 C A E Eliza would be 22 here, should be in UFR but maybe he just missed it 1 C F Eliza would 45, so probably too late. Can't find an Elizabeth Sheely death record, or an Elizabeth Upton one.

Ballylanders Village

So there's a land valuation from 1849 which has a 'Christopher Upton' with Christopher crossed out and 'Alice' written above it. Dunno who this Alice could be, the only Alice would be Alice Lee who married Henry Upton. This would imply that Chris died in 1849 and Alice took over the household, he'd be 35 or so but UFR said he died young.

1 William, son of Robert who is in the Ahnagurra Uptons( 1 B or so), had 3 kids, 2 sons, both 'in America' acc. UFR

2 Christopher, b 1814 m Mary 'Bourk', also son of the Robert from Ahnagurra (1 B), moved to Ballylanders and had a son William

2 A William b~1851 m Mary Carroll, had 3 kids, 1 son
2 A A Mary, B Alice
2 A C Christopher b~1891 m. Johanna Walsh. IRA volunteer.
2 A C A Mary, B Alice

These Uptons here are labourers rather than farmers, which the Uptons in Curraghturk or Ahnagurra were.

3 John b. 1871, m. Isabella Fogarty, d. after 1911. Don't seem to have had children. Church of Ireland. Can't find wedding cert. Maybe born in Limerick (there's a John or two born there at the right year).

Curraghturk

1 William b~ 1760, m. Margaret Martin, d maybe 1820. Son of first Ahnagurra William, 2 sons

1 A Henry b~1790 acc UFR he 'had a family but they are all dead and gone'. This Griffith's Valuation must be him: A Henry Upton mentioned in Curraghturk in Griffith's Valuation (https://www.findmypast.ie/transcript?id=IRE%2FCENSUS%2FVALUEBOOKS%2F429630) of 1848. at age 60.
1 B William b~1797, m. Mary Kiely, d. 1847. Maybe this William in the Tithe Books and in Griffith's Valuation in the 1830s.
1 B A, B, C Three daughters b~1790 'now in America'
1 B D Robert d. young 1847
1 B E William b1822, m. Mary Shiely
1 B E A Robert b.1854, went to South Australia, near Adelaide.

West Limerick / North Cork

Upton Family Records tree A lot of people here uncorroborated by the records, though some are, which makes me think it's at least mostly accurate. In his notes the author himself says that some of the tree is erroneous, putting it down to Catholic-Protestant marriages being legally void until 1870. Which may explain some of the lack of records.

1 William Upton b. ~1630. is perhaps mentioned on the family vault in Newcastle West. UFR hypothesises that he is the mystery High Sheriff of Antrim around that time.

1 A John Upton b~1660, m 1st Mary Fleming, m 2nd Elizabeth Conyers. Records exist for this guy, ie. His purchase of the lands in West Limerick in 1694, maybe his purchase of lands in Glenastar 1706, and his will in 1712. UFR says he came from Killabrahir, Co. Cork.

1 A Ba F Johnathan b~1720 UFR says he drowned while the purser aboard the HMS Royal George (p129). However, another book A narrative of the loss of the Royal George by Julian Slight ( https://books.google.nl/books?id=gg1hAAAAcAAJ&dq=inauthor:"Julian+Slight"&hl=fr&source=gbs_navlinks_s ) lists 'John Heron' a the purser. (Another book https://books.google.nl/books?id=z36YDwAAQBAJ 'The Papers of Admiral Durham' also lists John Heron as the purser though I can't find verification for this either. Also this book: Catastrophe at Spithead: The Sinking of the Royal George ' https://books.google.nl/books?id=nNveDwAAQBAJ ) Coupled with having a brother with the same name who didn't die young, I think this is probably a mistake in UFR, so I will mention it here and in his purported father's profile, but not create a profile for him. I could not find a crew list of the Royal George to verify Slight's version (and Slight doesn't give a source) so perhaps it is in fact Slight's mistake.

1850 land valuation for William Upton, probably father of John (m. Bridget Keane): https://www.findmypast.ie/transcript?id=IRE%2FCENSUS%2FVALUEBOOKS%2F457637.

Plausibly, grandfather of George, below. I bought the record and it says 'Son of Samuel'. If Joseph died 1729, this implies birth around 1660. Suggests a son unmentionedd in WHU and a whole branch of the tree in Ballyhay which is not mentioned. Ballyhay is nearby Killabrahir which the original John Upton possessed.

Find-a-grave page ( https://fr.findagrave.com/memorial/52622827/katharine-stokes ) claiming a 'Lady Katherine Upton', born June 1826 is daughter of 'Sir John Upton, [..] owner of Ashgrove Estate, County Limerick', no sources given. I also heard a claim that this Katherine is daughter of John Upton and Catherine Lyons. I have so far found no evidence for this. There are emigration records for 'Lady' Catherine and census records in the US, but I haven't looked at them. The only John where the dates fit is Upton-3163, who married Charlotte Walker. Could have been an extramarital affair since two of the children are listed as 'Illegitimate'. UFR claims this John or his father sold Ashgrove estate. I haven't found any evidence of this sale.

Cork

Lots of records after 1763 or so. The will of the guy who arrived to Newcastle West gives land to his son Samuel in North Cork, and then there's tons of records in the diocese of Cloyne after that, but can't find the Catholics in UFR.

Good few notices here: https://www.familysearch.org/ark:/61903/3:1:3Q9M-C9BZ-HRPT?i=320&cat=162067 and the next page.

16 Mar 1815 - Miss Elizabeth dies age 84, adds to birth year 1731, not 1780s - UFR has an Elizabeth daughter of Samuel who dies unmarried - would add up
Odell marries Elizabeth Sackett in 1838
(can see in this search: https://www.findmypast.co.uk/search/results?datasetname=irish+parish+register+marriages%2c+ffolliott+collection&sid=103&firstname=elizabeth&firstname_variants=true&spouselastname=upton) (more children start being born)

So, Giles b 1728, Joseph d. 1729, Frances m. 1731 and Elizabeth d.1815 all seem like children of Samuel (m. Alice Ruby). Giles could be the 'Captain' Upton who is mentioned as the father of the other Elizabeth b. 1761, since UFR says he was a captain of a merchant ship (where did he get this?). Then Mary m. 1731 might be the daughter of George, John's other son. George and Martha meanwhile and their children are still a complete mystery.

- could be of the Cloyne Uptons and/or the Charleville Christopher/Michael. Could be a Catholic split from the rest of the family.

Seems clear all of these Uptons descended somehow from Samuel (m. Alice Ruby) of Ballybrahir. How exactly and when the Catholics converted from Protestantism is unclear.

1777 - A Samuel Upton gets Catholic married to an 'Ellenam' Ryan de Butler' in 1777. (https://www.findmypast.ie/transcript?id=IRE%2FPRS%2FMAR%2F0329272%2F1) Her address is given as 'Butter'.

There's a Christopher in kilmacahill getting married, father listed as Michael. 1871 I think, in civil records.

0 Hypothesised Father - John and Cath have residence as 'Jlleg' which could be 'K Derrig' mentioned on one of Michael Upton's certs. Christopher's son James and Cath possibly got married, making Sam and Chris brothers. Posisbly all had the same father and turned Catholic for some reason. This possible father is not mentioned in UFR. Unknown if he was Catholic or Protestant. Mary Upton who marries John Sliney could be of same parentage since its around the same date. Earliest marriage is Michael and Mary Walsh, no mention of parents. Must be related to the Ballycottin/Ballybraher Uptons. In Ballyhay there's a John, son of George who is born and not heard from again.

Records of this family on the titheapplottement books and Griffith's valuation Christ+Catherine Cloyne town The name 'Ruby' was still in the family. Christopher's father is given as 'Christopher'. If Chris (m. Cath Garde) was born ~1830, his father born ~1800 (1810 marriage of Christopher Upton to Anne Sloane in Cloyne ), it's plausible that father's father was John Ruby, and his father was Ruby. There are a bunch of John's in UFR but they all say ob unmarr or ob s p. 1832 - Baptism of a Catherine Garde in the ffolliot baptism collection: https://www.findmypast.ie/search/results?o=eventyear&d=asc&firstname=catherine&firstname_variants=true&lastname=garde&sourcecountry=ireland&sid=100

1811+1813 - A Ruby (https://www.familysearch.org/ark:/61903/3:1:3Q9M-CSH3-33D3-K?cat=185720) and a John Ruby (https://www.familysearch.org/ark:/61903/3:1:3Q9M-CSH3-QSW3-D?i=231&cat=185720 ) making leases, both described as 'of Ballybraher'. So UFR missed two (he mentions a Ruby but the dates dont match). Presumably they are descendants of the Samuel + Alice Ruby marriage.

(http://web.archive.org/web/20171102223351/www.limerickcity.ie/media/03%2006%2030.pdf) Must be descended from George Upton of Snugborough. Could be his son in fact (Upton-3073) who married Mary Dobbin.

Dublin

1705 - Earliest Church reference I find is the burial of Catherine Upton in a CoI church in 1705. (https://civilrecords.irishgenealogy.ie/churchrecords/details/7b87470455444?b) Daughter of Ambrose. 1706 - Burial of Henry, son of Ambrose and Mary his wife (https://civilrecords.irishgenealogy.ie/churchrecords/display-pdf.jsp?pdfName=d-273-1-1-110) The Ambroses in UFR don't line up. There's one Ambrose with a wife Mary, but he died in 1688 and there's no evidence he came to Ireland, and UFR doesn't say he a child named Catherine or Henry. This Ambrose had a child and grandchild also called Ambrose, but neither had a wife named Mary, or a child called Henry or Catherine.

A Samuel Upton (p 49) and William Upton (p41) receive their Apothecaries license in 1817 and 1814 respectively. Probably this William and his son.

2 Philip b. ~1740 (p377/378) UFR says this Philip is nephew of the William who moved to Ahnagurra and had a son who lived at Cashel. UFR then says he married Mary Fewer, the daughter of a rich merchant. Don't know if the below is related to him.
There's a grave here from 1860: https://historicgraves.com/athenacey/li-anbv-0033/grave to his mother Mary nee Hennessy, and his daughter Margaret.
1840 - A baptismal cert here: https://www.findmypast.ie/transcript?id=IRE%2FPRS%2FBAP%2F0359612 which says Margaret's mother was Hanora Guiney, not Mary Fewer.
1843 - A Philip Upton being born to the same parents: https://www.findmypast.ie/transcript?id=IRE%2FPRS%2FBAP%2F0360132.

No more Uptons on this line in Cashel in later records, but a Philip turns up in Enniscorthy marrying a Bridget Byrne in 1866, father's name given as Philip: https://civilrecords.irishgenealogy.ie/churchrecords/details-civil/4154313085888 They have a child Ellen: https://civilrecords.irishgenealogy.ie/churchrecords/details-civil/60d7c37938134

There's also a will dated 1803 of a Philip Upton from Kilfrush. UFR mentions a 'gentleman in Ireland' saying that Philip Upton lived in Hospital, which is near Kilfrush. UFR also says Denis Upton, a child of the m. Mary Fewer Philip was 'probably born in 1770. This Philip m. Hanora Geary would've probably been born 1810-1820. Mary Hennessy his mother was born 1774, so this is plausible.
Hypothesis is:
1 Kilfrush Philip, b.1740 m. Mary Fewer, d.1803

1 A Philip b 1770 m. Mary Hennessy, d 1863,
1 A A Philip m. Hanora Geary
maybe even 1 A A A Philip, b 1843 m. Bridget Byrne.


Certainly plausible but hard to prove.
