Hi,
I'm trying to trace the parents of Ellen Cleron also spelt McLernan/McLaren & Henry Creaney / Craney & also trying to work out if I've identified two brothers.
Ellen married Henry in Lurgan on 2 Nov 1849. There's no record of parents name on the marriage record. They had following children - Hugh(1855), Mary (1860), James (1860), John (1863), Henry (1866), George (1868), & Elizabeth 1871. Mainly born in Halftown or Kilmore. In these records Ellen's name is mainly recorded as Cleron / Cleran.
Son John marries Mary McCann - in Glasgow in 1890 & has at least the following children - Henry, Ellen, Mary, Sarah, Elizabeth. Mary is sent back to lurgan & brought up by I think John's sister Mary (married to a Felix Corey).
Meanwhile there is a Henry Creaney who marries a Sarah McCann (no relation to John's wife) in Lurgan in 1891. He moves to Glasgow & has Hugh, Lizzie, Mary, Goerge. Hugh is sent back to Lurgan & brought up by Creaney relatives & later Lizzie is sent back to McCann relatives as sarah dies in 1910. Henry dies in Glasgow in 1941 and on his death certificate his parents are Henry Creaney & Helen Healley. However his death is not registered by relatives & I wonder if his mother's surname is incorrect & that he and John are actually brothers?
