Ephraim HEWITT was born about 1810 in Ireland. The exact Parish and County are not known but possible in or near County Cavan.
The names of his parents and siblings, if any, are also unknown.

Ephraim married Lydia SHARP before 1834 in Ireland. Lydia was born and baptized in 1813 in Drumgoon, County Cavan. Her parents were Samuel and Isabella (maiden name unknown) SHARP.

The children of Ephraim and Lydia SHARP HEWITT are: Jane born about 1834, Ephraim born 1840, William born about 1842, Isabella born about 1844 and Ann born about 1853. There may have been a son Edward. All the children were born in Ireland. The last child born to Ephraim and Lydia, Elizabeth, was born in 1860 in America (Pennsylvania).

Jane and an Edward HEWITT sailed together from Liverpool, England to Philadelphia, PA in 1854. Ephraim, Lydia and the rest of the family sailed from Liverpool to Philadelphia in May 1860. Elizabeth was born a few months later. Ephraim HEWITT died about 1865 in Montgomery County, Pennsylvania and Lydia died there the following year.

Jane HEWITT married James NAYE. He was born about 1840, the son of James and Margaret GIBSON NAYE. Janes brother, Ephraim, married Mary Jane NAYE, sister of James NAYE and daughter of James and Margaret GIBSON NAYE. William HEWITT married Mary Jane TORREY. Isabella HEWITT married Charles PLEIS. Ann HEWITT married John KARGER and Elizabeth never married.

I am looking to find more information on these families, both in Ireland and the United States and to make contact with any living family members in both countries.
