Australia / BREHONY/ENY/ANY family
« on: Saturday 11 February 12 17:03 GMT (UK)  »
Hello,
My Brehony family( There are many spellings of the name!) were in Arigna, Dereenavoggy, Roscommon, Ireland, in the 1830s until 1910.( Tithe aplottment, Grifiths Valuation and and 1901 census.
I am trying to trace any descendants of:-
Brigid(b.1839) and Winifred(b. 1846) daughters of Patrick Brehany and Dorothy Gaffney.

Or the next generation. Descendants of:-
Terence(b.1866),  Thomas(b. 1865), Brigid(b.1868) Eleanor(b. 1869), and Patrick(b.1873) children of Patrick Breheny(b.1836 d,1878) and Margaret Glynn(b.1843 d.1909).
If any of this rings a bell, please get in touch.

United States of America / GLeeson/Hayes/Morrissey/Casey
« on: Saturday 11 February 12 16:43 GMT (UK)  »
This is complicated!!
 This maybe connected with Tipperary, Ireland. More exactly, maybe Clonmel.
In the U.S.A. it is connected with Massachusetts, and maybe specifically Boston.
There are TWO stories, connected, but I am not sure exactly how!
Story1)
Thomas Hayes married Hannah Gleeson(Date ?)
Some children:-
Clara Hayes(unmarried died 1960s/70s)
Thomas Hayes married Lizzie Ryan(Date ?) - no children
George Hayes married Rose Casey(Date ?)
Some children:-
George(Married?) - No children - He might have been a Doctor.
Jack(wife?) - 8 children - lived in Boston, Mass. - He might have been a Doctor also.

Mary Gleeson went with parents Hannah Mary and Michael to U.S.A.
(Family story: Michael went out to buy something at the shops. He returned some years later! He had joined the Union Army this was at the time of the Civil war. The family have some uniform buttons and his neckerchief)
Gleeson family may have had a Milk business in Florence, Mass.
Mary Gleeson returned to Ireland(Clonmel), met William Joseph Morrissey and married.
Went back to U.S.A.on her own, expecting baby.
William Joseph would not go, so she returned.
William Joseph was a teacher. Family may have had a grain shop in Gladstone street, Clonmel
First child James was born in U.S.A.. The rest:- Tom and Nell born in Ireland,(Clonmel?)
Tom was Secretary Of Education, Nell was a teacher.

If any of this rings a bell with anyone, please get in contact,
