I've come across a third book by MacLysaght, titled "More IrishFamilies",published after his death, I believe. I thought the following blurbson somesurnames similar to the Creans (by sound, by Gaelic, or by name-changesourancestors made in spellings) might be of interest. I'm sending the
MacCrohan,Crehan, Creighton one separately (it's long). These are directtranscriptions
from the book:
O'Cowan/MacCoan: Cowan is an alternative form of two surnames dealtwith inIrish Families [his earlier book] - see Coyne (p. 98) and MacKeown (p.200).Where it occurs in Connacht records it is a substitute for the formerbut nownearly all families of this Hy Fiachrach sept are called Coyne or Coen. In
modern times Cowan is (apart, of
course, from the metropolitan area ofDublin)almost confined to
numerousin Co. Armagh in the 17th c. as evidenced by the Harth Money Rolls andalso by
the exhaustive analysis of Co.
Armagh surnames publ. by George Patersonand byMichael Clancy in Seanchas
Ardmhacha. .... [p. 65-66]Creedon, Creed:
Creedon, a west Cork name, is now called O Criodain[sorryfor lack of
gaelic accents] in Irish (e.g. Tomas Criadain, the 19th c.GaelicIrish scribe)
but formerly and properly it was Mac Criodain.

Cronin & Croneen [p. 69]: [rather than repeat the long blurb, just takemyword for it that there's definitely no connection there](Mac) Crowne: The name Crowne, associated with Manorhamilton andadjacent
areas, is a form of Croghan (q.v.), a name chiefly found in Co.Roscommon,alias Croan. Croghan is listed in the "Census" of 1659 as a principalIrishname in the barony of Ballintubber, Co. Roscommon. In the Fiants wefindMacCrowane in Co. Roscommon; Brian Keogh macBrien MacCroughen occurs ina
Fiant on 1591 with a number of O'Beirnes in Mayo, near Co. Roscommon;andagain in 1601 there is Croghan "alias O'Beirne," which, taken inconjunctionwith their location, suggests that the MacCroghans or Crownes were abranch ofthe O'Beirne sept. Woulfe gives MacConchruachain [sorry for lack ofIrish
accents] as the Gaelic-Irish form which is corroborated by a Fiantentry of1582 in which MacEncroghan appears as a Co. Roscommon name.

PDTSubject:[CRYAN-L] O Craian/Crean of
Hello folks,The monument to which
Eve referred to in a recent post, is indeed Sligo Abbey. I have a photocopy of
a booklet published by the IrishGovernment on the Dominican Friary of Sligo,
which according to the booklet is "generally (but incorrectly) known as Sligo Abbey". If this booklet
is still available for sale, it should be available from the Government
Publications Sale Office,
Friars until 1760. In the intervening period, it had a turbulant history, being ransacked and commandeered on a few occasions. In 1760, the community moved elsewhere.It has the following reference to Crean:
"There is an interesting collection of 16th and 17th century monuments in the church. The earliest dated monument is the O'Craian or Creantomb of 1506 in a recess in the north wall of the nave, jst west of the rood-screen. It has the remains of a fine traceried canopy, below which is the tomb chest, similar to the high altar in general appearance but with figures in relief on the arcaded panels of the front. (The Crucifixion in the centre, with the Virgin Mary and St. John on either side; at the left-hand end is a friar, probaly St. Dominic, next towhom is a figure robed and crowned, carrying a sword, with a small circle on the breast, possibly the wheel of St Catherine, the third figure onthis side being a figure (? female) in a long gown secured by a belt,
carrying a staff with a pear-shaped
end, possibly a pilgrim; at the far right is an archbishop holding a
processional cross, with his hand raised in benediction, next to whom is St.
Peter with the keys, the third position being occupied by St. Michael the
the tomb chest, is incomplete, but the date (1506) and the name Cormac O'Craian can be read: his wife's name is less certain, but it may be Johanna Nic Aengusa (or Ennis)."
"There are also several early 17th century armorial stones, forming portions of monuments now destroyed. The earliest of these, dated 1616, is built into the recess of the O'Craian tomb and bears the arms of the same family (argent, a wolf rampant sable, between these hearts gules) impaled with those of French (ermine, a chevron sable). The initials A.C. and E.F seem to be those of Andrew Crean and his wife. This may be the same Andrew Crean of Annagh to whom Elinor, Countess of Desmond, O'Connor Sligo's widow, left £100 in 1636. The hearts in the Crean arms and the inscription on the lower edge of the stone:
Cor mundum crea in me Deus et spiritum rectum innova in visceribus meis
'Create a clean heart in me, O God, and renew a right spirit within my bowels' probably constitute a punning allusion to the Irish word for heart (croidhe), the the sound of which resembles that of the name Crean.
Another stone, dated 1625, bears the Crean arms impaled witha rampant lion, apparantly for Jones. Across the base is carved two curious rhyme:
Wee two are one by his decree
That raigneth from eternity
Who first erected have these stones
Wee robucre Crean Elicia Jones"
I don't know if the above confuses
us all further or if it helps. It certainly suggests that the O'Craian family
were of high standing asthe tomb is of similar size to an O'Connor tomb in the
Friary. These arethe O'Connor Sligo family who were lords of Sligo for
centuries and wereone of the leading families of
I have another source which refers
to the Crean mechants from
While the title might suggest that ti concentrates on the Church, it also goes into great detail on the lives of people and politics during this period. I would highly recommend it for anyone with roots inSligo.
In case you don't know, the Diocese of Achonry comprises one-third of Co. Sligo, one-fifth of Co. Mayo and one parish (Ballaghaderreen) from Co. Roscommon. It covers the Baronies of Gallen, Leyny, Costello,
Corran and Coolavin.
In one place in the book, it refers
to an Act of 1704 which requiredall Catholic priests to register. In order to
register, each priest had to have 2 sureties or guarantors, for £50 each.
"Two members of the Crean family of
John Crean and John Lamey gave sureties also for priests of their own diocese of Elphin. ........
The Creans, John and Stephen, belonged to an old and distinguishedSligo family which ranked second only to the O'Connor Sligo family. Their residence was known as O'Crean's Castle and between the 15th and 17th
centuries they were a family of great wealth and high station and foremost among the merchant princes of that era. They lost much oftheir property as a result of the 1641 rebellion.".
It gives the book "Ballysadare and Kilvarnet" by O'Rorke, pages 476-7as a reference for this information.
All of the above strongly suggests
that the Crean/O'Craian family were of very high standing in

Dear Fellow Researchers,This was

YOU KNOW YOU'RE TAKING GENEALOGY TOO SERIOUSLY IF ...
You are the only person to show up at the cemetery research partywith a shovel.
To put the "final touches" on your genealogical research, you'veasked all of your closest relatives to provide DNA samples.
You were instrumental in having "non-genealogical use of thegenealogy room copy machine" classified as a federal hate crime.
Your house leans slightly toward the side where your genealogicalrecords are stored.
You decided to take a two-week break from genealogy, and the U.S.Postal Office immediately laid off 1,500 employees.
Out of respect for your best friend's unquestioned reputation forhonesty and integrity, you are willing to turn off that noisysurveillancecamera while she reviews your 57 genealogical research notebooks in your
home. The armed security guard, however, will remain.
You plod merrily along "refining" your recently published familyhistory, blissfully unaware that the number of errata pages now farexceeds the number of pages in your original publication.
During an ice storm and power outage, you ignore the pleas of yourshivering spouse and place your last quilt around that 1886 photographofdear Uncle George.
The most recent document in your "Missing Ancestors" file is a 36-page contract between you and Johnson Billboard Advertising Company.
Ed McMahon, several t.v. cameras and an envelope from PublishersClearing House arrive at your front door on Super Bowl Sunday, and thefirst thing you say is, "Are you related to the McMahons of Ohio?"
"A Loving Family" and "Financial Security" have moved up to secondand third, respectively, on your list of life's goals, but still lag farbehind "Owning My Own Microfilm Reader."
A magical genie appears and agrees to grant your any one wish, andyou ask that the 1890 census be restored.

they've got stuff searchable online.
I've also recently seen referenced the following LDS site, which may be
ofsome interest to those of you with less library access:
<AHREF="http://www.lds.org/en/4_News_Update/19980929_Genealogy_PR.html">Media
Information/News Update</A> -- I don't remember if I got it from a
how-to oran Ireland research mailing list. You should also explore the LDS'
otherpages. It's a good way to pick up other tidbits to help in research.
Michael T., have you posted your site to this mailing list recently? I
hadproblems with your counter (your page froze twice on me), apparently,
but itmight just be AOL. So I haven't gotten to all of it, but I like what
you did(especially in keeping the graphics simple - it was so fast!). I added
it toour mailing list taglines, hope you don't mind....
Lastly, another Cryan-ancestor-induced-anecdote. My grandma let this
one flylast night: "God bless us and save us, says Biddy O'Davis" -- sure
enough, itwas one of my Ggrandmom's faves (she was our last Cryan). I also
learned to"cut" biscuit dough -- who knew one actually used knives??? My french-
descended husband would be horrified (you should see him praying to his
pastries and other laminated desserts).Looking forward to reading your next, Leslie

When I started rooting about five years ago I thought my sister
and I were the only remaining members of the HOUSDEN family in
existence. At the time I didn't know about the Internet at all.
At the urging of a genealogy instructor I signed onto AOL and
posted my surname. Nothing happened. Then about two months later
as I was about to cancel my subscription and give up on the
Internet (what did I know about anything anyway?) I got a
response from a woman about five states away. She carried the
HOUSDEN surname, and thought, like I did, that her family was the
only one in existence. Did I want to talk? We both admit that for
the next month we wouldn't acknowledge our spouses, respond to
our children, answer the phone or pat the dog until we had
checked our e-mail to see what the other had sent.
Then I found RootsWeb. I now host a HOUSDEN surname list. Here's
the most exciting thing -- we now know that the original HOUSDEN
immigrant came to Virginia in 1769 as a convict and eventually
had nine children. Two of these children were girls who never
procreated or whose offspring died without issue. Two of these
children were girls who married and seemingly fell off the face
of the earth (although we think we have found them this summer).
We have descendants of the other five children as members of this
surname list and a collective database of about 4,000 names. This
is pretty impressive, I think, and possible only because of
RootsWeb and the Internet.

LETTERS TO THE EDITORS
THE PRIVACY OF VULNERABLE PEOPLE. In "RootsWeb Review", Vol. 1.
No 16, 30 September, 1998, Ann Minter commented about the
improper use on the Internet of living family information which
had originally been provided on the assumption it was private and
that it was not to be disseminated.
Publishing such information could have serious effects. Many
people have periods in their lives when they are particularly
vulnerable, due to mental illness, divorce, bankruptcy, being
abused or bullied, drug taking, homelessness, an unwanted
pregnancy, etc. When such people are trying to rebuild their
lives they need all the support they can get from their friends
and relatives. Some people commit suicide simply because they are
irrationally haunted by the idea that everybody is talking about
them behind their backs and they will never be able to escape
from their past. When someone is depressed in this way about
their past difficulties, even quite small indiscretions can set
back their return to a full and normal life. Unnecessary and
inappropriate Internet publication of material that the
emotionally strong might consider as trivial details -- such as a
postal address at the time a relative was a patient in a
psychiatric hospital -- could have a negative effect on their
recovery.
It is difficult to gauge the seriousness of indiscriminate
publishing of "vulnerable" personal data on the Internet by
genealogists. For instance, when people are depressed they are
unlikely to make a complaint about something that makes them
worse -- because the very act of complaining reminds them of the
cause of the depression and could send them on a downward spiral
of despair. For this reason overly-enthusiastic, thick-skinned,
"we publish everything for posterity" genealogists may well be
totally unaware of the damage they can cause to their more
sensitive distant living relatives.
As well as being a genealogist I am a director of a major mental
health charity, and before I retired I spent about 25 years
studying how people interact with computers. I am currently
collecting information on cases where vulnerable people have
suffered because of actions by genealogist geeks publishing
"unfortunate information" about living relatives. I would be very
interested to have details of any cases known by your readers (by
e-mail, and of course in strict confidence). As the privacy/data
protection laws vary around the world it would help if you
identify the countries involved.

Why do people get so bent out of shape about people using their
raw data that they have collected? How many of these people use
the proper citations when they are claiming their research as
their own thing? If there is one thing I learned in College
English 101, it's that there is no original idea. Everything has
a source, and word of mouth doesn't count. If these people want
something they can get credit for, they need to write a book, get
it published, and have the protection of the law in their work.
Many people gather raw data. It doesn't become theirs until they
turn it into something of their own

Around 10 years ago, I attended a Mexican funeral at the famous
old San Fernando Cathedral in San Antonio, Texas. The priest
offered the following story:
"We have a tradition in Mexico that each person dies three
times.
First, there is the moment in which the body stops functioning.
Second, there is the time that the remains are consigned to the
grave. Third, there is that moment, sometime in the future, in
which the person's name is spoken for the last time. Then the
person is really gone."
Several years later, I got into genealogy and realized that
persons who preserve the memories of persons from their own
familial past, are preventing that third death.

UNIX (Tip: rhymes with "tunics"). UNIX, which doesn't really
stand for anything, is the most popular network operating system
in the world, not to mention the operating system used to develop
the Internet and World Wide Web. It's also a real favorite of the
technological elite -- not only because it's very capable but
also because it's a deep, dark, intimidating mystery to the rest
of us. You're never surer of your technical inadequacy than when
you're peering over the shoulder of a UNIX programmer, watching
her type lines of unintelligible code that only she and the
computer understand.

GENEALOGY IS LIKE FISHING
by Doug Smith, senior producer, Palladium Interactive
<uftree@palladium.net>
A thought I had many years ago really struck home. It came to me
that genealogy is a lot like fishing. While I don't fish often, I
know enough from talking to those who do that putting your hook
in the wrong place could be as productive as dropping a hook in a
glass of water. Equally as important as where you fish and how
you bait the hook is having the ultimate patience of a fisherman.
The frustration of losing your bait or watching the catch swim
away prompts the same frustrations a genealogist can have when a
search leads nowhere.
Finding the right genealogical information is a lot like locating
the right pond, river, or fishing hole in order to catch a
specific kind of fish. The lure or the bait you choose also makes
a difference.
Whenever I have difficulty finding data that I need to establish
a relationship, verify a name, date, or place, I think about
fishing. What would an angler do? It is a humorous and fun way of
keeping the search in perspective.
FINDING THE RIGHT POND. Random searches are never as productive
as directed searches. Knowing what you are looking for and why
you need it is as important as the search itself. I drop hooks in
the genealogical pond like this:
-- Place queries in quarterlies and magazines that are most
likely to be read by potential cousins.
-- Place queries in libraries in the locations where the people
that are the subject of my search lived or worked.
-- Subscribe to genealogical quarterlies in the counties and
states where the subjects of my searches have lived or died.
SELECT THE BAIT. Before you bait your hook study the bait. In
other words a squiggling worm is better than a dead one. If you
know something about the data you have dropped in the pond you
are far more likely to be successful in your search. Analyze the
data you have stored in Ultimate Family Tree. Compare dates with
historical events. Understand the quality of the information you
leave for others to find and leave enough information to affect a
match or attract attention.
POWER OF COMPUTERS. The research power included in Ultimate
Family Tree makes your fishing trips far more productive. You
can enter data, retrieve data and print data, but more
importantly you can record the sure level of the data, record
sources of information accurately, attach sources to specific
events, associate events with multiple people and places. Because
you have taken the time and effort to qualify the data, you are
confident of the quality of the information you use and that you
post in queries.
The power of computing has helped genealogists become better
organized. Computers have allowed us to analyze data to achieve
results in ways that were not possible just 10 short years ago.
Computers are to genealogy as radar is to fishing, and Ultimate
Family Tree <<a href="http://www.uftree.com" target=_blank>http://www.uftree.com> is the ultimate rod and reel.

Hi to everyone, I have been away for a week to Scotland and the Lake
District and so was looking foreward to all the CRYAN mail awaiting my
return !!! Sadly not a great deal. BUT a very big thank you to all
those carrying on the crusade. Very often ,and this is with other lists too, I feel as though I am
reading only part of the conversation and that more is being said/written which
I am not party to. It may be because the correspondance started before I
joined the list or it may be that some list members are writing to each other
and only periodically to the list. eg you said earlier that there had been a
discussion about the "FamilyMotto" - I do not know what has been said,
so I apologise for any repetition........... but on mentioning it to my
brother, he immediately recognised it as part of
the penitential psalm, Psalm 50/51
"Have mercy on me, O
God, in your kindness" in which verse 6
is as
follows"A pure heart create for me ,O God
put a steadfast spirit within me.
Do not cast me away from your presence
nor deprive me from your Holy Spirit."..............
....The Latin text was parallel to this translation. I think that this is a fitting text for a
gravestone anyway but agree that it may have been chosen for the pun
that appears in the Latin. I would think therefore that the family MUST or at least one of
them MUST have been , well educated and versed in Latin. No schoolboy usage
here. I would love to know what was said on the list earlier.
I would like to make some suggestions:-
1, that relevant conversations are carried out on the list, because
often we do not know what we know until someone else's comments unearth
a memory or a resource. Sometimes a suggestion by one or a question by
another can result in a third fi nding that they have the information.
2, that requests for look-ups or other information be made to the
list in general rather than privately to individuals because there are lots
of different routes to the source materials. I have never seen anyone so
enthusiastic and as busy as Leslie, she is wonderful , but she can not
be expected to do everything.
3, that each list member gives some indication of what they are
doing and where they are interested in. It VERY OFTEN happens that several
months later while doing or reading something unrelated, one finds something
useful and can post it to the appropriate researcher. I know that some of us
belong to other lists which also can produce surprising pieces of information
and cross links. My former boss's motto was "Together we are stronger than
any one of us" !!!! What do you think?
4, that , and I think that this is MOST important, everyone makes a
point of acknowledging/saying thank you, for ALL replies made to one's
postings. Another list we belong to has had quite a thorough
correspondance of this point - I would rather it was not necessary, so I say it now. I
know it is very often unintentional, but folk become a little hurt when the
time and trouble are not recognised.
I think four suggestions are enough :
My interests:
CRYAN at present Boyle, Drumrat and Kilfree parishes, currently looking
for a birth of John in 1843/4 and a birth of Daniel in 1846/7/8/ and their
parent's marriage. Am gradually creaping nearer by looking at the RC
parish registers. The area of interest is on the border of Co Sligo and Co
Roscommon. Until again, Eve - I am trying so hard to keep to my internet
diet , but it is so hard.

found his name to be Danial by many record`s.One way was in Lidgerwood
N.Dak. I went to the Parish Priest a couple year`s ago when I was back
there and asked what records they had on the Cryan`s.They had Thomas
Cryan`s record of him dying august 4 1917,and listed his dad a Danial
Cryan and mother as Mary "Moran" Cryan..Also I have it recorded on the
census of Morrisburg Canada.1851-1861-1871 and 1881 in Stormont
county,Ontario Canada. Michael Cryan was a brother to
Austin,Ellen,James, Thomas,Lucy and Joseph Cryan, Plus half brother to
seven older sibling`s. =A0=A0=A0=A0=A0I am just guessing he left Ireland in 1830,because Maria
Cryan was born in 1831 in Morrisburg Canada and he had two children
before born in Ireland,Martin born in 1823 and John whose birthdate I
don`t know.. So it`s just a guess.. Keep asking question`s and the more

much easier to grasp,, Lyle
From:Fatarm@aol.com Add to Address BookDate:Fri, 9 Oct 1998 16:53:22 EDTSubject:[CRYAN-L] My two centsTo:CRYAN-L@rootsweb.com
First, thank you to everyone who subscribed to the list -- not that I'm
done seeking out interested individuals, but that big push will have to wait
a few days more -- because by doing so we're all a little closer to what we
seek. Second, is everyone else aware that another connection has been made by
Lyleand Harvey with their Dakota Cryans? I think it's very exciting -- and
also am a little envious. Thank you, and please continue sharing your
discovery of cousins!
But before I get carried away, I DO have to recall that not everyone
has the same amount of time to spend o n this part of their genealogy project,
or will be as interested in the same angles of family research that I am. I
confess to not being so intrigued in my particular Cryans as I am in the general
history of the family group in Ireland and Irish history (at least for
right now). However, I did advertize the list to many of you with the
phrase, "only generating 3-4 pieces of mail per week just now," and some subscribers
may not appreciate more.
Last, I think *just about* everyone has posted their research line
[this is another of my not so-subtle hints to get you silent folks to cough-up].
It might be interesting for some to share more tales of their Cryan
ancestors' lives, in or out of Ireland, to kind-of fill-in the waiting time. It'd
be fun to continue the informality of this list to try and meet everyone's
needs. And don't worry about thanks -- we're O'Creans, and as such, naturally
gracious! The last thing I would want to happen is for subscribers to
feel shy about posting, worrying about how polished their phrases are, or
being nervous about its reception.
--- Let's face it! I'm thrilled to think people are even reading our
postings! --- But I'm new at this and very open to direction, so please continue the
dialogue about this (it helps me think about what I'd like to get out
of this list, as I'm sure it does for others) -- Leslie (perhaps I would have
been better named Bridget so that you all could call me 'Biddy')

Kathy, Hi,
As a Catholic Parish, Glounthaune will not be an independent entry, the
book only contains civil parishes and other villages and towns. Many of the
names of parishes particularly RC parishes do not relate to any settlement
,so the first reqirement is to find civil parish and settlement
(village/town/townland). Townland, which is a subdivision of a civil
parishis often a good basis for a search, and there are a couple of good
"Townland Search" sites 1) Ireatlas which list all townlands in the
area specified (PLU, county, barony, parish) 2) Irish Times Ancestor
search of places which has several ways to search - all Ireland or restricted to
county in which on can select by PLU,barony,parish or townland or even
better by selections of letters which appear in the name. I have used
both and in no 2 selected by gl...nt..ne with 14 results, none your spelling
only 2 in Cork PLU.
Next time I have access to the book I will look up both Middleton and
Cork,town and county names and see if anything useful turns up.
The following are the URLs for you to use

Hello to everyone,
I thought that it was time that I posted my family details. I have
been told that my ancestor had eleven variations on the spelling
of his name during his lifetime.. I have listed just a few of them.
I am looking for information on my 5xgreat grandfather Thomas
CRAWN/CRAUN/CRAHAN/CROUGHAN (among other variations
of the name). He was tried at Dublin in December 1791 and sentenced
