Francis Longworth ca 1680 - 1742 |  his parents   
& ?? |  her parents
of "Craggen," County Westmeath, Ireland 

   This is my working hypothesis - the way I see it as of this moment!!

   "Creggan is about three miles south-east of Athlone - where was a house rather than a castle which burned in 1919. Athlone is on the river Shannon and would be approx. 2 hr. drive to Shannon (airport)." infomation from Westmeath Tourism 1999.

    "Craggan is only one of several alternative spellings available for the name of the Longworth farm a few miles east of Athlone. It can also appear as Creggan or Cregeen." Jack Swift

    *Francis Longworth was the son and heir of *Francis Longworth and
          the grandson of *Peter the Cromwellian soldier.

1855 Captain Thomas Dames= Longworth.. standing near wall, bell tent in background;

Library of Congress, Prints & Photographs Division, LC-USZC4-9318 
from Lecture given at the Library of Congress October 13th 2004. by Richard Pare
The Angel of Death has been abroad throughout the land.  Roger Fenton and the Crimean War.
"On a purely compositional level the portrait of Captain Dames is one of the most striking in the series. It remains one of the strongest of all Fenton's portraits; the rushing perspective of the vectored angle of the clapboard wall fixes the subject firmly in space.  The articulated negative and positive triangulation of the background maintains the geometric tension of the image. The dress uniform of an officer of the Royal Artillery with its elaborate frogging and embroidery seems at odds with his introspective gaze. He survived the war and it seems that he returned to Ireland, he married and had .. children."

"In 1919, soon after Major T M Montgomery's return Glynwood House was accidentally burned beyond repair. All the family now went to live in Cregeen House, where a large staff of house-workers and gardeners was maintained. Cregeen House was burned by Irish Republican forces on the same night as, and for the same reasons as Moydrum Castle was burned. With both "big houses" gone, the family decided to leave the area where they had lived for almost 300 years." Jeremiah Sheehan in "South Westmeath Farm and Folk" pub. 1978
