Landers and Cleary

[Aloha Eagle]

I am searching for information concerning my great-great grandparents, Thomas Landers and Bridget Cleary.

All of their children were born in the United States.

Both are listed as being from County Clare, Ireland.  However no town is ever listed on any of the records I have been able to find.

Thomas’ apparent date of birth is 1814.  He died in Cutler, Ohio in 1893.
No further information is available so far on Thomas as to parent’s names, etc.

Bridget’s date of birth is more elusive as she listed her d-o-b differently in each of the 5 census reports where I have been able to locate them.  Her death certificate issued on August 8, 1911 in Cutler, Ohio gives no birth date but lists her age as 91.  D-o- b would be around 1820 if this is accurate.  Information on the death certificate was given by her son.
Bridget’s father is listed as James Cleary, County Clare, Ireland.

In the tithe applotment records from 1826 I have found Cleary’s and Landers both- only in Clondagad.

James Cleary in 1. Diacamede, 2. Laught, 3. Lisheen

Thomas Landers in 1. Cahirea West and 2. Furrure.

Also James Landers in Furrure and Michael Landers in Cahirea West.

I have hit the wall…where do I go now?

Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Aloha,

Richard in Hawaii

Aloha Eagle:

I have been searching for years to find information on my great grandparents, Thomas and Bridget Cleary Landers.  As for any more information about exactly where they lived in Ireland, I don't know.  I do know, however, that they are buried in Marietta, Ohio.

I have found quite a few LANDERS & CLEARYS also living in Moyarta Barony, Carrigaholt, and the LoopHead Lighthouse area.
