Henry Nugent Bell [SEP] date of birth
Henry Nugent Bell
Henry Nugent Bell (1792–1822) was an Irish genealogist.
Biography.
He was the eldest son of George Bell, Esq., of Belleview, County Fermanagh (Inner Temple Admission Register).
He followed the profession of a legal antiquary, and, in order to obtain a recognised status, entered himself at the Inner Temple, 17 Nov. 1818. In the same year he acquired considerable distinction by his successful advocacy of the claim of Mr. Hastings to the long-dormant earldom of Huntingdon
Family.
Francis was the sixth and youngest child of Colonel Henry Bruen (1741–1795) and his wife Dorothea Henrietta Knox. (His date of birth is listed in one source as 1800, but it seem seems improbable that he was born five years after the death of his father, which is listed by Rayment as 14 December 1795.) In 1823, Francis married Catherine Anne Nugent, daughter of George Nugent, the 7th Earl of Westmeath and Lady Elizabeth Emily Moore. They had no children.
