Torrens Families Genealogy
Biography Photographs Youghal Bann Valley Torrens Books

These are a collection of Torrens family trees which give the state of our current knowledge on the Bann Valley and other Torrens families.

There is no reason why other named families should not also be presented here - but this will not happen until someone presents me with a suitable tree so if you have a relevant GEDCOM file, use the Contact button!

Much of the early data is highly speculative. Therefore there are copious notes in the trees to indicate why we think the data fits like this. I welcome any feedback, corrections, additional data or different ways of viewing the known facts.

Mayoughill, Hugh

Robert (1736)

Robert, Jean's brother, founded an American line. Data mainly taken from Jared Sidney Torrens' book.

Culnamen, John and Jean

There are too many descendants for a single tree, so this is the (highly speculative) ancestors tree and (eventually) trees of the five sons who had families. Jean is a daughter of Hugh of Mayoughill

1. John's line
2. Samuel's line
3. Hugh's line
   1. Hugh Torrens of Drumsara
4. Thomas' line
5. Robert's line

Dungiven line

This line has very nearly died out - only one branch is known to still survive. However it contains most of the famous Torrenses including the Australian explorer and many military and clerical gentlemen.

Sergeant Hugh

This is the partly fictional tree of Sergeant Hugh, as published by Robert M Torrence. RMT's complete book has been transcribed, but see also The Early Hughs of the Torrens Family in Ulster
