--- "Dublin Evening Post" 17 Sep 1840, page 3:
It is our painful duty to announce the death of Mrs. Peyton, wife of Wynne Peyton, Esq, of Springfield, county Roscommon, J.P., who departed this life on the 16th instant, in the 32d year of her age, after a protracted illness of ten months, which she bore with truly christian RESIgnation. In every relation of life -- as a daughter, wife, mother or friend -- she possessed in a superior degree those qualities which cased her to be beloved by all who enjoyed the pleasure of her acquaintance. By her death the poor of the surrounding neighbourhood have been deprived of a generous benefactress, her hands being at all times and seasons extended in dispensing charity. To her children the love of God, and submission to his will, were ever inculcated, and to her friends and acquaintances her pious and affectionate demeanour made her be looked on as a perfect model of imitation. Her last moments were truly exemplary; after imparting her blessing to her beloved husband and children, by whom she was surrounded, she calmly RESIgned her soul to her Creator, who seemed to grant her the blessing of a happy death, which she so long prayed for, and which the heavenly joy that appeared on her countenance at that moment clearly manifested. -- May she rest in peace.

If you are still out there and are still interested, Wynne Peyton was the son of William Peyton and Dame Jane Chambers O'Rorke. Jane was married to Hugh O'Rorke of Creevagh, County Sligo, who died in January of 1790. Jane remarried to William Peyton later that same year. Wynne Peyton was for a time in the 1840's living in the townland of Cartown in County Leitrim about a mile north of Carrick On Shannon. James Coyne Esq. rented the biggest house in Cartown, and Wynne married his daughter, and only child Maria. Cartown was owned by John Hamilton Peyton, Wynne Peytons cousin. John Hamilton Peyton was the son of Hamilton Peyton and Susanna Chambers of the townland of Port, close by Cartown. Susanna and Jane Chambers were sisters born in County Mayo. I am descended from Hugh Peter O'Rorke, Wynne Peyton's half-brother who also lived in Cartown at the same time. Hope this helps.
