Burne

Submitted by edpope on

Burne's, Carlow 4.8.1800 tea / 8.8.1800 dine at Burne's (not in Carlow?) / 2.10.1800 (in London) meet Burne / 8.10.1800 meet Burne, Dogherty & Goold / 27.9.1804 Burne at H Rowan's / 20.9.1805 Burne & Curran dine / 9.10.1805 call on Curran (not in), Burne (not in)

Since Godwin began the day of 8.8.1800 seeing St Cavan's Bed at Glendalough nr Wicklow and then returned to the Dublin area it seems unlikely that he went back to Carlow to dine (and this is confirmed by his letter Bodleian Abinger c6 f36v) so the Burne's of 8.8.1800 was probably a different venue from that of 4.8.1800 even if Burne was the same person. Byrne was a commoner name in Ireland than Burne, I'm not sure how differently they were pronounced. Among the 36 wanted persons in the rebel band of Michael Dwyer DNB 1772-1825 (Dublin Evening Post 19.7.1800) were no less than 7 Byrnes and one Burne. They were at large somewhere in the mountains south-west of Dublin, being "sheltered by disaffected persons". Nat Arch HO 42/51/120 f524-5 is a letter dated 29.9.1800 to the Home Office concerning the imprisoned Lord Cloncurry from Mr John Burne at 20 St James St, Piccadilly
