Neary of Kilcroy, Augrhim, Roscommon.

[Aussie1947]

Hi from Australia,

My wife's great grandfather was a Michael Neary from Roscommon and I finally found only recently that Michael migrated to Australia in 1865 on the"Star of Brunswick" and he came from Augrhim, Roscommon.  I also found out a couple of days ago that his brother Martin Neary migtrated to Australia in 1864 on the "Morning Star"  I understand that Michael Neary born around 1845 and Martin Neary born around 1839  were from Kilcroy, Aughrim, Roscommon and their father was John Neary and mother Annie or Mary or Sarah Conlon.

I'm seeking any information on the Neary family in Kilcroy if possible.

Regards
Gerry

There are Nearys still in Kilcroy on the 1901 census including a John aged 57 (=> born c 1844) which could make him a brother or cousin

The John and Bridget listed on 1901 census in Augrim East were married in 1873 and registered in Carrick-on-Shannon (wihich is actually Co. Leitrim just over the border from Roscommon)
The reference for civil records is 1873 Volume 8 Page 51 and Bridget's name was GLANCY

Bear in mind that Neary on our records can also be spelt Nary and Nairy; Glancy is also sometimes Clancy when searching

If John was Martin and Michael's brother this could be a good start in ireland

www.familysearch.org has some records of births in the area that implies there was a pocket of Nearys there if you confirm a link it will give you a parish to search at for records of Martin & Michael

myluck,

Thanks very much for responding to my query and giving me valuable information,  I'll be following up on those sites.

I found out the hard way with the spelling of Neary, I searched for ages for Micheal Neary coming to Australia and I finally found him on an 1865  manifest as Michael NARY from Aughrim Roscommon.

Michael & Martin's father was John Neary and I have found a John Neary on the1848-1864 Ireland Griffith's Valuations residing at Kilcroy leasing around 27 acres from a Mr Henry S P Mahon.  This may be my John.

I really appreciate your help.

Regards
Gerry
