Those of you who have been on this mailing list for some time will

recall thatI have been trying to put together a database of our ancestors plus all

thoseothers that are posted to the list or my own research comes across.

Thanks tomany of you, we have about 2500 names in the database, with whatever

otherscraps of information (locations, occupations, baptismal sponsors etc.)

we'vecome across.

I've been sitting on this information for a while, and now that it

looks likeI'll have a little "relaxation" time before we move into our new house,

I'dlike to get it in better order.  About ten or so new subscribers have

joinedthis mailing list since I last asked, so I figure this is a good place

tostart -- would any of you newbies be willing to post your pre-WWII era

genealogies with the list?  My goal is to reference researchers to

ancestorsand be able to assist those wishing to make family connections with

otherresearchers.  And to generally promote a sense of family amongst our

"clan",of course.  The more details, the better, simply because there are a

lot ofPatricks and Bridgets ....I'm also hoping to soon email those of you whom have already shared

your infoto verify stuff.  But give me time to clean it up first!!  Leslie

as anexample:

- - - - - - - - - - - -

Robert Cryan b.1840/1 m. Frances Fox

Robert was in the Royal Irish Constabulary (RIC) and died at the age of

60 inS. Dublin.  For at least a time, he was stationed in Castlebar, Co.

Mayo.After he died, Frances worked as a housekeeper near Dublin.  All of her

children emigrated to the U.S.A., mostly to the New York/New Jersey

area.  MyGgrandmother, Agnes, and her mother were the last to come over c. 1914.

 Agneshad worked for Linde Air, the first Catholic to do so, before

emigrating withher mother.

A side story my grandmother remembers Agnes telling:  Before she

emigrated tothe U.S. she considered going to Argentina.  Apparently many young

Irish womenwere invited to do so, or were emigrating to Argentina at that time.

Agnesand Frances then lived in/were housekeeping a boarding house for British

officers who told Agnes not to go to Argentina because it 'would be

like whiteslavery.'  Can you imagine?!  Anyways, it's certainly a colorfulanecdote!

    To:        CRYAN-L@rootsweb.com

I recently came upon a periodical entitled Irish Heritage Links, dated 10 April 1990. Its distributed from an address in Northern Ireland.In it, for many of the towns in Ireland, it contains a list of office

holders from 300 years ago.The list is introduced by 'These lists have been extracted from a copy

of the eighteenth century publication entitled "The History of the Life and Reign of William of Nassau and Orange, ...etc".'While the copy I have only lists some towns, it includes Sligo town and

has the following information.

" Sligoe March 21, 1687

  Andrew French, Provost

Burgesses, 24

  Martin O'Connor, Esq

  John Taffe, Esq

  Sir William Gore, Baronet

  Henry Crafton (or Craston), Esq

  Oliver O'Gara, Esq

  Kane O'Hara, Esq

  Edward Crafton (or Craston), Esq

  Pierce Gethin, Esq

  James French, Esq

  Philip Ormsby, Esq

  George Crafton (or Craston), Esq

  Terence McDonough, Esq

  Walter Philips, Esq

  Philip Cox, Merchant

  Jasper Brett, Esq

  John Creane, Gent

  Andrew Lynch, Apothecary

  Anthony Creane, Merchant

  Peter Darcy, Merchant

  John Delap, Merchant

  Bartholomew Maly, Merchant

  Thomas Jones, Esq

  Charles Hart, Gent

  Laurence O'Hara, Town Clerk"

The 2 Creane's mentioned above are Creane's we've mentioned in this

list previously, and I think are the same Creane family who have a tomb in

Sligo Abbey.

They were regarded as a leading family in Sligo town in those days. I

haven't come across references to the family in later centuries yet - I

wonder did the their line die out, or were they adversely affected by

the plantations and moved elsewhere?

Does anyone know what is meant by a Burgess??

Also, does anyone know why someone's title might be "Gent" while

someone else's might be "Esq". I always thought they meant roughly the same

thing, but the above list contains both - which is surprising if they

mean the same thing. Could it be a Catholic vs Protestant title?

regardsMichael

munipalrights. Historical use- a member of parliament for a borough , town oruniversity.

Esquire- a title appended to a man's surname when no other form of

address isused such as Mr.  not used very much these days'Historical use -shield bearer.

Gentleman- a man of good social position or of wealth and leisure

(countrygentleman) A man of gentle birth attached to a Royal household (gentleman inwaiting)

Gentleman farmer- a country gentleman who farms.

Hope these definitions are of help.  Pat Moseley (crogmos@aol.com)

<<I see the word "homeland " used as in the phrase " Ballywhatever will

preferably in relation to parishes, rural districts, electoral divisions

and so forth.>>

The correct term is Townland. And you are right, it is an administrative

division. Here's some more info on such divisions:

Civil Divisions

Townland--the smallest unit of land area, varying from less than

                ten acres to thousands. There are about 64,000 townlands generallyorganized into civil parishes

Civil Parishes--generally contain about twenty-five to thirty

                townlands, as well as towns and villages. There are   about 2,500 civil parishes.

Barony--a portion of a county of group of civil parishes. There  are 273 baronies in Ireland.

County--there are 32 of them, in four provinces. The first   counties, Dublin, Louth, and Kildare, were              established in the early 13th century by the English; the last, those of Ulster, established after 1600.

Province--there are four; Connaught, Leinster, Munster, and    Ulster.

Cities, Towns, Boroughs, and Wards--separate administrative

                areas of varying size. Many have several civil parishes,

                some civil parishes have several townships. Urban areas

                can have boroughs (a town with a corporation, or a town

                that has an MP), a ward is an adminstrative unit within

                a city or large town.

Poor Law Unions--set up in 1838. Rates, land-based taxes, were

                collected in these areas for maintenance of the poor.

                Although named after a large local town, they don't

                always conform to county boundaries. These districts

                later became General Registrar's Districts.

General Registrar's Districts--are the areas births, deaths, and

                marriages were compiled.

 

Ecclesiastical Divisions

Church Parish--the area a minister or parish priest serves.

                Church of Ireland parishes usually conform to civil

                parish boundaries; Catholic boundaries generally do

                not.

Diocese--parishes are organized into dioceses, with a bishop.

                The dioceses contain a certain number of church parishes

                and don't conform to county boundaries.

All the above was paraphrased from James G. Ryan "Irish Records: Sources

for Family and Local History" (Flyleaf Press, 1997).

In the End of Hidden Ireland by Robert Scally  1995 Oxford University

Pressthe origin of bally as part of a place name is explained with reference

toBallykilcline  as "Such a community as Ballykilcline was known as a

"baile" inthe Irish language and so it was called by its people, becoming the

commonprefix bally in English maps and surveys. But by the nineteenth century

thegeneral usage in English, both for the community and the surveyed unit

of landin which it lived, was the townland. Hence, this Roscommon community

was knownas the townland of Ballykilkline"I hope this helps.  Pat Moseley(crogmos@aol.com)

I have been scanning through a book by Fr John Finn entitled "Gurteen,

Co. Sligo - its people and its past", published in 1993.Gurteen is about 5 miles west of Ballymote in South Sligo. It is along the Tubbercurry-Boyle road, about half-way between the 2 towns.

The book contains numerous tables of various records for the Gurteen area, together with some folklore. Here are the records which mentioned the Cryan name or variants. You'll notice that its mostly Cryan.

Hope the information is useful to someone.regardsMichael

Pat, you might try through USGenWeb.  There's a huge volunteer project

underway to get U.S. Census data online (and searchable, I believe).  I

don'tknow the status, or whether it's only for a certain census year or

what.  Butit's worth checking it out.  You can get there through rootsweb if

Subject: Irish Convicts to NSW 1791-1820

Dear All,

Last year on St. Patrick's Day, I launched my Irish Rebels to NSW

site.This year, I have increased the number of Irish Convicts to NSW to

over7400 in the online searchable database. It now covers most of these

convicts from 1791-1820.

The list of ships 1791-1820 to New South Wales is now on separate web

page.Its possible to search for a surname for each of the highlighted ships

[except Duke of Portland (1)]. In my opinion, it's a waste of time if

you're searching just a surname.

It is better to use the Convict surname searchable database which

covers1791-1820.

A couple of hints ....If you are searching all convicts from say Kilkenny, then type

kilkennyin the Search all fields option. This option will return all the

convicts with Kilkenny as their Trial Place or Native Place.

Try using variations on your specific surname e.g. Burn Byrne Walsh

Welch Riley Reilly  In the ship option, it's possible to type in a particular year e.g.

1820  This will return all Irish convicts transported to NSW in 1820.

The initial information comes from the microfiche copies of the

ShippingIndents held by the State Records of New South Wales.

If you have any problems etc., don't hesitate to contact me.

Hi Caoimhghin,I visited Myddleton Place yesterday and looked for Charles CRYAN. Sadly

thelatest index on the shelf was the December quarter of 1997 - I suppose

it isa bit early in the year for 1998. However I looked through 1997 and 1996

without finding him. Being stupid, I did not ask at the desk what the

nextstep would be ...... I shall be going again so I shall persue this

until wefind something. If we knew where he had died then we could just write

to thelocal registrar enclosing a fee (£6.50) and giving the particulars

..... butfrom what you say this is not certain.Leave it with me and I shall follow this again.

Sorry not to have done better, but never give up......! Eve

Please let me know if you have any trouble opening the attached (MS

Would you happen to have any information concerning my great great

information, he was married to Sarah McMahon on Oct 6, 1859, but I do

not knowwhere that date came from, and I am searching for their marriage record

whichmay be located in England (Durham or Northumberland) or Scotland.

Informationconcerning his death (in Lowell, MA) would also be very helpful.

Thank you,Jill

Obituary

CRYAN-  Mrs. Sarah Cryan died last evening at her home,  13 Myrtle street, after a long illness.   Her age was 71 years and 8 months.   Mrs. Cryan was  well known here,  having made this city her home for many years.   She is survived by three sons,  James,  John P., and Alexander Cryan,  and three daughters,  Mrs. John Ort,  Miss B. T. Cryan of the Fashion store and Miss Katie Cryan.

 

Lowell Sun,  15 Jul, 1911

CRYAN-  All that was mortal of the late Mrs. Sarah Cryan was consigned to its final resting place in the Catholic cemetery this morning.   The funeral, which was very largely attended, took place from her home,  13 Myrtle street,  at 8:30 o'clock and proceeded to St. Michael's church,  where at 9 o'clock a high mass of requiem was celebrated for the repose of her soul by the pastor,  Rev. John J. Shaw.   The choir under the direction of Mr. Thomas P. Boulger sang the Gregorian mass and Miss Mary O'Donnell presided at the organ.   The solos of the mass were sustained by Mr. Boulger and Miss  Margaret Griffin.   There were many beautiful floral offerings,  among them being the following;  large pillow of roses,  ferns,  and carnations, inscribed   "Mother "  from the sons and daughters of the deceased;  wreath of roses and carnations,  inscribed    "Grandma"   from the Ort children;  spray of carnations form Mr. and Mrs P. H. Goldman;  wreath of white roses from Mr. and Mrs. Mahoney and Mrs. Slattery; spray of carnations,  Mr. and Mrs. J.J. McManmon; spray of pinks,  Mrs. Dennison,  Miss Scott and Mrs. Lemerise, employees of the Fashion; spray of carnations from Edith Walcott Prescott Ladies Auxilliary of the United Spanish War Veterans, No. 2.    The bearers were Messrs,  James Cryan,  Thomas Cryan,  Thomas Hayden,   James O'Flahavan,   William Enwright and  John J.

McKenna  in charge.

 

(Note:  The Thomas Cryan mentioned above is not her son Thomas, but another Cryan (who may have come from Ireland to stay with the family).  The James O'Flavahan mentioned above is James Cryan Sr., the widower of Mary Cryan. -- Paul E. Cryan, 2/24/98)

I was looking over my older messages, and as I spent some time with this

gem, I wasn't sure that I ever pointed out that I've got the marriage

record for James Cryan and Honor Beirne.  They don't show up in the

Boylerecords because they were married in the (mostly) Sligo parish of

Kilfreeand Killaragt on February 8, 1853.  Their witnesses were one Patrick

Cryanand one Wilhelmina Gainly.

Also, I saw that Karen didn't have the names and dates for all of James

andHonor's children.  I'll also add some data to what Eve sent me.

So here is the augmented version of the old family tree!

I have more detail coming toward the present; if anyone thinks i've got

Something for them, come on. 

If anyone has more info for me, come on.

This list is great; and no, i'm not drunk, just trying to have some fun.

Thanks, eve, that was beautiful.  What i really need now, and can't do

Fromatlanta, is to look at the lorton estate records for the tenancy of that

Plot in the ballinanultagh townland in the 1850's.  Some of kevin's

Deathrecords indicate that there were cryans there before the 1853 wedding,

Andthat a death or two (and the resulting inheritance of the lease) were

Thecause of that wedding.  Since lorton's agent managed most of his estate

(i.e., there was the usual layer after layer of tenant and subtenant)

Thiscould be fruitful research for anyone trying to find cryans in n.

Roscommon, e. Sligo, or sw leitrim.

> i had asked about the rorkes, who were the neighbors of the cryans in

Ballinanultagh, and who, i was told, came there together from sligo.

Of course, my grandfather said that the family had been on the same plot

For 1200 years, so we have a contradiction in the sources - what aSurprise!

Hi Roger,

Thank you for your update on the 13 yr old brides and the 18 yr old

grandfathers, great aunts etc. A colourful lot ,I would say. Much better

that the bland birth and death dates.

I have recently added considerably to my files and have found the

following.I wonder if it explains the CRYAN / RORKE link AND where they may have

comefrom.

Philip CRYAN married Brigid O'ROARK on 28 Oct 1826 in Taunagh RC ie

Riverstown Co Sligo for them I have 7 children with two gaps in the sequence where there

may ormay not be others

Mark c 23 Jan 1828 in Taunagh RC

Mary c 26 April 1829 in Taunagh RC

Brigid c 4 Feb 1831         ..

Catherine c 7 Dec 1832   ..

-

Honor c 6 May 1837       ..

James c 5 March 1839   ..

-

Elizabeth c 11 Nov 1843 ..

 

You may be interested that this is the next parish to the NE of Keash,

whichis adjacent to Gurteen(ie Killaragt and Kilfree), and Aghanagh, which in

turn are adjacent to and slightly to the NW of Boyle. (These all being

theRC parishes). The total distance being about 15 miles(a rough guess,

but itputs the scale into perspective).Happy hunting, all you colourful CRYANs, Eve

        [CRYAN-L] New Jersey Cryans    To:        CRYAN-L@rootsweb.com

Somewhere in the back of my genealogy notebook is the broad clue that I

havecousins living in the New York/New Jersey area.  I don't know if anyone

onthis list is also related to someone from that area, or may even

currentlylive there now, but here's a shot at getting somewhere with it:

>From looking at some obituaries pulled up with a reference to "Cryan",

I foundtwo women who died in the 1990's to have beloned to the John Cryan

Associationof South Orange, NJ.   I'd never heard of such an organization, and a

quickcall to 411 (information) revealed that the phone company doesn't have

arecord for them either.  I'm wondering if anyone on the east coast or

Jerseyarea has heard of this organization?

In addition, I copied down the following obit for a Martin A. Cryan of

NewJersey to share:  (published in the No. New Jersey "Record",

27-02-1992, p.e07)

"Before retiring in 1973, he was a shipping clerk for Uniroyal Co.,

Passaic,for 37 years.  He was a parishioner of Most Sacred Heart of Jesus, R.C.

Church...  Surviving are his wife, two sons and stepson, 6 grandkids & 1

Ggrandkid."

In addition, a reference in the "Record" obit listings mentions a Rev.

JohnCryan of Bayonne, NJ (as a surviving nephew of a deceased).

I'm going to search around the "Record" for other surname variations

soon --Leslie

              "ANCESTORS: THE FAMILY SEARCH" ON PBS

       DEADLINE FOR STORY IDEA SUBMISSIONS: 31 March 1999

The new series on PBS (the U.S. public television network),

"Ancestors: The Family Search," is looking for compelling stories

to illustrate particular record types. These include:

(1) family/personal records (e.g., Bibles); (2) vital records;

(3) census; (4) religious; (5) military; (6) land and tax;

(7) probate; (8) newspaper; (9) immigration (includes emigration

and naturalization); (10) migration; (11) cemetery; and

(12) computer. Help is most needed now with probate, land and

tax, migration, and family records.

Story guidelines are:

-- There must be a tie to one of the record types mentioned

   above. This does not mean that the story cannot include other

   records, but it is desirable that the story hinges on a

   particular one. Research efforts that took an unexpected turn

   due to the content of a particular record would be of great

   interest.

-- There must be an obvious link between the record and a

   specific ancestor, as well as between the ancestor in question

   and a living descendant who would be willing to be

   interviewed, preferably the individual who did the research.

-- There must be a story with a clear beginning, middle, and

   end. If you're not sure, try telling one of your friends or

   relatives your vignette before submitting. If you get a "so

   what" reaction, it's probably not a fit. If they look

   impressed, incredulous, shocked, or just laugh out loud, you

   probably have a contender.

-- The story must help us model the research process, so please

   tell us how you obtained the record(s) that is (are)

   featured in yours.

-- Since this will be for television and other media, we need

   some visuals. Please tell us briefly about how your story

   could be illustrated. This might include the record itself,

   photos, pedigree and other charts, family heirlooms, footage

   from family reunions, the ancestor's home, and so forth, or

   anything else that might be relevant to the story.

-- There is a preference for submissions from people located in

   New York, Washington, D.C., Salt Lake City, Seattle, and

   the U.K., but all are welcome. Submissions from people of all

   ages and ethnicities are encouraged in order to provide as

   diverse a collection of stories as possible.

IMPORTANT: Please send a brief synopsis of your story to

<76163.1402@compuserve.com> no later than 31 March 1999, and

include the record type in the subject of your message.
