John Creamer (Cremar)
2 males under 16; 1 male 45 to 60; 1 female under 16; 1 female 16 to 45; 1 female 45 to 60
served in the British Army from 25 March 1810 to 15 Sep 1829; 19 years 175 days;
discharged from the 81st Regiment of Infantry; discharge papers
memoir of his great-granddaughter Mary Ready, Mrs James D Flood
states that when he was dying, his son William tried to fetch a priest.
since William's children were all born in New Brunswick, the earliest in 1845,
John Creamer probably died in the early 1840s - 1841-1844
Parish register for Granard Parish, County Longford lists only one John Creamer born
during the 1780's and 1790's; with father Bernard and siblings Mary, Patrick, Hugh
and Bernard; as these also seem to be family names for William Creamer's siblings,
I assume that the John Creamer in the parish register is the correct John Creamer
army discharge papers list age 21 at enlistment in 1810; however this may have been
age "over 21"
also listed in the parish register is a Hugh Creamer married to a Mary McCormick in
Feb 1789 and children Hugh (Mar 1791) Margaret (Mar 1796) and Bernard (Aug 1798)
could this be Bernard Creamer (John Creamer's father)'s brother?
John — Margaret (Hattie) (MacGuire) Maguire. Margaret was born Abt 1795, Ireland; died Prince Edward Island, Canada; was buried Kelly's Cross, Prince Edward Island, Canada. [Group Sheet]
