Hi there.
caclancy here again.
just a few sidenotes to add.
My g-g-grandfather's name is in question. It's either Patrick or Peter. Someone kindly pointed that out to me.
Also besides sons Matthew and Patrick there was also John Clancy who lived in Galway,Ireland. I think he lived out his life there and his family might still live there. I have to do some more digging on that.

Thanks to everyone out there.

May love and laughter light your days,
and warm your heart and home.
May good and faithful friends be yours,
wherever you may roam.
May peace and plenty bless your world
with joy that long endures.
May all life's passing seasons
bring the best to you and yours!

Hi Pat,
 First, thanks for the info. My Gaelic is not my strongest trait. I am trying to teach myself but man, it's hard to do alone.
 Second, I guess I should have figured that out myself but I just started this huge task i gave myself.
  Third, my family, for some reason, will not talk about the past unless they are drinking their whiskey and beer so when they start talking I get different names for my g-g-grandfather. So I thank you for that little fact that will actually end up to help me go in the right direction! ;D

Any more tips on Irish names, etc, BRING THEM ON!!!  LOL!

Thanks again,
caclancy

My g-granfather Matthew , DOB 1891, had 2 brothers. Patrick Clancy who came to Pittsburgh with Matthew in 1925 and brother John Clancy who lived in Galway. Their father's name was Patrick ( or Peader) Clancy.

Does this help? Hopefully we're talking about same Clancy line.

If it is let me know.

Just wanted to say a HUGE thank for taking the time to give me some clues/hints. Keep me in mind if you ever need any help and let me know if I can. I have a list of names posted so I might have something you need. I also love to chat about history,books ,almost anything except recent politics. Everyone in family, I have learned, always fights when that topic comes up. ::) ;D
Have a good week and thanks again.

« on: Friday 08 July 05 01:43 BST (UK)  »
Help! :'( I am looking for clues on my g-grandfather. I don't know much facts on him . His name was Samual David Roscoe. He was born in England around 1901. He came to America through the Boston Harbor . Moved to Pittsburgh, Pa. He was in the Navy during WW1.
He married Helen Loftus who was born in Pittsburgh on Feb. 10 1900.
They had 3 daughters: Anna Marie Roscoe Clancy (my grandmother),Helen Regina Roscoe Thibault, and Dolaras Roscoe Greany. He died on March 8, 1963. My g-grandmother died Jan 25, 1976. My g-grandmother's family originated in Mayo co.

Any information,clues,etc, would be extremely helpful!

Thank you for your time.

Cork / need to find a Clancy ; County Corke g-g-grandfather
« on: Friday 08 July 05 00:28 BST (UK)  »

I need some help looking for a Clancy. I am looking for my g-g-grandfather, Peader (Patrick) Clancy. He had, at least,  2 sons, Matthew ( my g-grandfather)  and Patrick who eventually immigrated to Pittsburgh, PA in 1925.  I have alot of "stories" on this person including he fought with Micheal Collins; he was only known as Captain; he was part of the The Irish Volunteers ( Oglaigh na b Eireann) ,Southern Brigade; he was executed as a result of either the Easter Rising of 1916 or Bloody Sunday 1920.

He lived in County Cork. I could use some facts on his family; siblings, other children,parents,etc.

Thank You for your time. Any clues would be extremely helpful.

Thanks, caclancy ;D
