Thank you hallmark.  I am hoping that it is and F.    When I checked the other possible siblings again it definitely looks like an F.  Now I have to find out about the sounding of Rennie and Freany.
Once again, thank you, much appreciated.

Hello, I think you are right in that Rennie is Freney/ Franey.
I have Martin Delaney married to Elizabeth Freney.
They had a son John Delaney (b. 1845?)
They also had a daughter Mary Delaney (b. 1853 in Newtown, Queen's County) married Richard Nash (b. 1853) in 1873 in Clonbrock, Laois. (Newtown & Clonbrock are in the same area as Crettyard and Doonane). They moved to Omoa Square in Cleland (sometimes noted as Shotts but that is the district - Cleland is the village), Scotland around 1901, with a large family.
Mary's birth and baptism have a witness as Mary Treacey and Mary Traney. I believe these are actually Freney/ Franey. You can see how things get confused!
So I believe your Eliza is sister of Mary Delaney?
Richard and Mary's daughter was Bridget Nash, and whom married a Delaney.
Her son was Scotland footballer Jimmy Delaney of Celtic, Manchester United, Aberdeen, Derry and Cork. His son was Patrick Delaney of Motherwell football club.

Hello MarsKy, you are quite correct.  It is great to see how the family tree works in.  My father used to talk about being a cousin of the great Jimmy Delaney but I could never find the link in the tree.  I managed to check the death certificate of Mary Delaney (my Elizas sister) and it did confirm her mothers maiden name of Franey and not Rennie.  Many thanks for your information, much appreciated.
