[VICTORIA]

Hi. Have just been sent information RE: FOY FAMILY.
Marriage Details for; Patrick Foy & Mary MEANY ( Mooney)
1846 South Mayo Kilcolman Roman Catholic Church
Birth details Patrick Foy 04/01/1828 North Mayo Kilfion Ireland. This is where his father Daniel would be named. Name of mother not given to me. My relative said records were found on Mayo Family History Site. Must see if I can find it. My relative is going to send me details of marriage & birth certificates. Thank you so much for helping me without this & help from rootschat readers I would never have reached this stage in my research. Who knows I may be able to go back further in my Irish Roots

My FOYs are from Co Mayo.  In the 1830's several lived in Carramore, Backs/Knockmore, according to baptism records which also show some as sponsors for one another's children.  There are several different Patrick FOYs at the same time, likely all closely related.  Some of the other families with them there were SYRON/SYNON, MANLEY/MUNNELLY.  There are several places called "Carramore" one is sw of Ballina, one just w of Lacken, another nr Belmullet.  My ancestor Patrick FOY b est 1797 m Catherine MANLEY MUNNELLY abt 1827.  All but one of their children were baptized in Co Mayo, except the youngest who was b after they emigrated to Waukegan, IL, USA in 1849.  Shortly before they left Ireland they were living in Ballina, south & east sides.  Various misspellings incuding FAY, FARY on US census records.  I have a large tree, including some in England & PA, also dna results FTDNA, dna.Ancestry, GedMatch.  Would love to connect.
