This website tip just came in from a fellow researcher. Many Irish

were incarcerated in this prison. There is a very good search engine at the

site which searches the database by surname. Many of the records include

the name of the ship the convict came over in, along with the place they were

sentenced, the crime, etc. Very interesting!

<<"Fremantle Prison is one of Western Australia's premier heritage

sites,centrally located in the heart of the port city of Fremantle. The

Prisonwas built by convicts in the 1850s and was closed as a place of

To: CRYAN-L@rootsweb.com

Dear Cryans,

My cousin Pam and I have gathered a little bit more about our ancestor

AttyCryan who brought her ten kids to America in 1848, after her husband

JohnCryan died, but we're running into a brick wall.

We've know that Atty and the kids landed in Boston, stayed in

Leominster,Mass. for a few years, and then came west to Wisconsin. Family lore

has thefamily going west in 1855 with a brother-in-law named Mark

Cryan/Crane/Crain. This brother-in-law had come to America earlier, and

wesuspect he lived in Boston or Leominster. We hear he had written to

Attybefore John died asking that the two oldest daughters come join him in

thenew world. Anyway, in about 1855, the crowd settled in Rosendale

township,Fond du Lac County, Wisconsin. (Later they went to Eldorado township, a

fewmiles away, and there they stayed.)

We haven't been able to find a thing about this brother-in-law. I've

seen acensus index that has a Matthew Crane with an asterisk, meaning they're

notsure of that spelling, and that's all I've found. There's an Edmund

Cranelisted in the Wisconsin homestead records, but we've found that he's

Mayflower-era English heritage. Phooey. Where's that darn

brother-in-law?

If his name was indeed Mark, he was definitely beloved in the family,

because the name shows up in every generation. We want to find out more

about this brave brother-in-law who helped his widowed sister-in-law

and allthose nieces and nephews build a new life in a new country.

Another proud descendant of Atty Cryan,

A. Riley

For those of you who have questions about Griffith's Valuation (and who

doesn't), you should know about a new book "Richard Griffith and His

Valuations of Ireland" by James R. Reilly. It should really be called

"Everything you always wanted to know about Griffith's Valuation but

didn't even know enough to ask." The author answers very clearly and directly

exactly the questions being addressed on the Roscommon rootsweb site.

No one who is attempting to use Griffith's Valuation should be without this

book. It's published by Clearfield Co., 200 East Eager St., Baltimore, Md.

21202 or you can order online by going to the following website. It sells for

only $21.95 plus shipping.

Dominick Cryan who served for the Confederacy in the US civil war - Company C, 46

Georgia Infantry (private). He would be far older than your Domnick, who i

know did not reside in the US anyway, but the first name is unusual and i thought

there might be a link. if you are interested and have not already done so, you can

order Dominick's military AND pension records, which sometimes includes data

on parents' names, residence at enlistment, and last residence, spouse,

year of immigration, etc. Contact the US national archives through their

Thanks for thinking of me Karen.

Yes, I have that info thanks (haven't requested any records though).

I think I even posted it to the list once.

There appear to have been at least 4 Cryans in the ACW, 2 per

side - Infantry, Artillery, Infantry / Navy / POW.

A side hobby of mine is military history so I have an interest in any

such references - from whatever period - even if they aren't related.

Patrick,

I am responding to your message from January 15 of this year. I am the

great-grandson of Peter Niland ( aka Nyland ) and Bridget Cryan. The

samePeter Niland that was left the farm and I have a photgraph of the old

house( seen as a cow barn 10 years ago or so) if you would like it. You

mentioned you had a copy of the will and I was wondering if you had the

dates, of the transfer. We don't know to much about Peter or Bridget

exceptthat Peter lost a leg while serving in the British Army and he also had

afew poems published. Its hard to imagine how he managed the farm, with

itshills, on a wooden leg, but he did. My second cousin, Mary

nee'NilandAmato, believes that, Peter inherited the farm because none of Thomas'

brother's still lived in the area. To be honest we don't know, why.

MaybeBridget Cryan was his favorite? Does the will mention anything?

Also, it appears we are distant ( fourth?) cousins. If you are

interestedin the family tree that includes the descendants of the seven children

Ihave of Peter Niland and Bridget Cryan. Please let me know.

Hope to hear from you,

Greetings!

my name is Alison Crehan, and I am absolutely brand spanking new to

the entire genealogy universe, so forgive me if I seem bumbling or

ill-informed! I live in Quincy, Massachusetts, on the South Shore of

My family seems to know little to nothing about its origins, and

recently I have become very curious about the Crehan family. I'm

hoping I can find out a bit more about where we came from and who we

are.

My information goes back only a few generations. I am told that my

great-grandfather was named James Crehan, and he was from somewhere

in Ireland. Family members disagree on whether he stopped in Canada

for a spell on his way to Hingham, Massachusetts, and no one recalls

exactly where in Ireland he came from. James married Isabel Lowrey

sometime in the 1860's (we think!), and they had seven children

survive to adulthood: Henry, Fred, William, Isabelle, Elizabeth,

Alice, Helen, and Herbert. These children were pretty colorful

characters, which has only served to pique my interest! Adding to the

mystery is the fact that sometime in the early 1900s, James deserted

his family and was never heard from again.

The family scattered, and many of the people who could clear up

mysteries for me have passed away.

Any advice, hints, thoughts, or suggestions would be greatly

appreciated! I apologize if I'm giving too much or too little

information in my introductory email. I know I have a very daunting

task ahead of me!! :)Best,Alison

To: CRYAN-L@rootsweb.com

Hello all -

this weekend, I took a trip to St. Paul's Cemetery in

Hingham MA, where many of my family members are

buried. I found several other gravesites bearing the

name Crehan, and am sending along all of the

information I found. I'm including little notes on my

family, in case it rings a bell with anyone anywhere.

Let me know if this information is at all helpful to

you!1)The front of the monument bears the name LOWREY;

this was my great-grandmother's maiden name, and her

parents names are listed on the front of the monument.

On the back is the name CREHAN, and listed below are:

HENRY L. 1889-His Wife ISABEL M., Died Dec. 22, 1947

(Notes: Henry Lawrence is my great uncle Harry. He

married a woman with the same name as his sainted

mother and beloved sister, but they kept separate

apartments in New York City; Harry lived in a hotel,

while his wife stayed with her family. I don't know

why Harry chose for them to be buried with the Lowreys

rather than the rest of his family at the other end of

the row. I *do* know that Harry has not had the year

of his death inscribed due to a protracted family

squabble, sigh; he passed away in 1982.)

2) At the other end of the same row is the monument

for the rest of the family, bearing the name CREHAN.

The front of the stone lists the following:

1862 ISABEL LOWRY 1929

1897 THOMAS FRANCIS 1897

1901 HERBERT FRANCIS 1950

1907 RUPERTA SKELTON 1979

1891 ISABEL 1976

1896 ELIZABETH 1977

(Notes: 1.The spelling on my great-grandmother's name

is different than on the other monument. 2. Herbert is

my grandfather; he lived in Hull, MA and is the father

to Herbert Jr. and Ann Crehan Curley. 3. Ruperta is my

paternal grandmother, Herb's wife. 4. Isabel and

Elizabeth "Zum" were never married, and stayed

together their whole lives.)

On the back of the stone is listed:

1892 WILLIAM J. 1950

(Notes: Willie was the family scoundrel. Harry had put

himself through Harvard and graduated Phi Beta Kappa;

his younger brother Fred was on his way to the same

when Willie ran away to Canada to join the RAF, taking

all of Fred's tuition money with him - or so the story

goes. When Willie died, the Canadians contacted Harry;

Harry refused to allow Willie to be lsited on the same

side of the grave as their mother, whose heart was

broken by her son's betrayal - or so the story goes!)

3)The next stone bore the name CREHAN on the front,

and listed the following:

MATTHIAS CREHAN, Died May 12, 1882

ELLEN CREHAN, His Wife, Died October 10, 1903

NELLIE F. 1937

MAURICE B. DOWER 1900-1955

A ground plaque in front listed:

MAURICE BOWDEN DOWER

MASSACHUSETTS

GM1 USNR

WORLD WAR II

APRIL 23, 1900 - MAY 18, 1955

The back of the headstone lists:

JAMES M. DOWER 1939

CATHERINE C. 1928

JOAN C. Taylor 1930-1944

HELEN C. McGRATH 1901-1975

FRANK J. McGRATH 1898-1977

JANICE E. TAYLOR 1926

4) Right next to #3 is an ornately carved grey

monument bearing the name CREHAN; the following are

listed on the front:

PATRICK CREHAN Dec 26, 1877

MARGARET KEARNS CREHAN April 10, 1920

MARY A. CREHAN July 4, 1919

MARK A. CREHAN Nov. 17, 1927

CHARLES D. CREHAN Jan 12, 1934-Nov 2, 1969

There are three ground plaques behind the monument:

a) Charles D. Crehan

Massachusetts

PFC Infantry

Jan 12, 1934 Nov. 2, 1969

b)Joseph Crehan

Massachusetts

2D LT 1 Replacement Depot

World War I

Nov 16 1894 May 11 1962

c) Charles F. Crehan

PVT US MARINE CORPS

World War I

1899-1983

5) A double headstone was found a few rows away for:

MARY CREHAN REIMNGTON CATHERINE CREHAN

October 23 1896 January 7, 1898

AGED 60 YRS AGED 75 YRS

A larger headstone behind this one; the front reads:

1856 THOMAS L. CREHAN 1910

CREHAN

The back reads:

1833 LAWRENCE CREHAN

HIS WIFE

1830 CATHERINE CREHAN 1898

1822 HONORA CREHAN 1863

1831 MARY CREHAN 1909

As far as I know, I am not related to any of theseother Crehans.

An additional resource for these Crehans:

http://www.rootsweb.com/~mahingha/index.html

If you go to this page, and follow the links for the

book on the history of Hingham, you will find a little

info on the Crehans. I was able to find a possible

marriage date for James & Isabel Crehan using this

book! Hope this info is of help to someone... I did take the

precaution of photographing each headstone, to provide

a permanent record for myself.

Cheers, Ali

>>> Sinn Fein to return to talks - Adams

Sinn Fein President Gerry Adams said at the start

of a six-day visit to the United States on Thursday

that his party was ready to re-enter peace negotiations in

Ireland. "I don't think it's a matter of if, I think it's a

matter of when," Adams told a news conference

before a talk at Seton Hall University in New Jersey town.

"We didn't want to be put out of the talks in the

first place," he added. Amid new unionist opposition to

the presence of Republicans at talks, Adams said of Ulster

Unionist leader David Trimble last night: "Obviously he is

someone we want to talk with and to make peace

with." "Sinn Fein will come very positively to these

talks. And it isn't up to Mr Trimble to block or to in

any way impede the rights of those people who vote for

Sinn Fein."

* Later, at Cryan's bar in downtown South Orange,

New Jersey, Sinn Fein chief negotiator Martin

McGuinness and Adams addressed a crowd of over 500 people.

"I'm absolutely convinced that we're going to see

a united Ireland," McGuinness said. "We're not going

to see it in May. We know that."

But Sinn Fein would seek consensus to continue to

move toward the goal of freedom in Ireland, he added,

and suggested that next 10 months or so could be the

most important in Ireland's history

To the Crean researchers: a few genealogists have been discussing the

O'Crean name and printed resources over the last few days on the Sligo

list (to subscribe email IRL-SLIGO-L-request@rootsweb.com with "subscribe"

in the message body). Here's a partial excerpt:

Jim, As you undoubtedly know, Wood-Martin has surprising little to say

about theCrean family other than that they were the merchant princes of Sligo

for severalcenturies. Mary O'Dowd provides much more info on them in her "Power

Politics &Land: Sligo 1568-1688." She said Roger Jones, the Protestant, gained

from themarriage of Elicia Jones (whom she said was probably his niece) to

RoebuckCrean, calling the match "profitable and shrewd" and "a wise move to

ally withthem rather than try to establish a rival business" of importing and

exporting. What happened to the merchant family of Creans? It seemed to have

survivedthe Cromwellian confiscations. Could it have been one of Sligo's many

plagues orlack of male heirs?

Caoimhghin,

Did you complete your family tree?

I am still trying to trace descendants of the famous Master Cryan

Who ran the College in the Bog (Townabrack NS) in the last 20 years of the

19thC. I have established that two sons of his, William and Thomas,

attended Clongowes Wood College in the 1890s. One of them, I know, was killed in

a motor cycle accident in Dublin, probably in the 1930s.

Thomas Cryan NT deserves to be remembered, his story deserves to be

told. I want to rule in or out the possibility of connections with your

family. I think your Dad is related to other Cryan journalists, one of

whom,(his name escapes me) worked for the Irish Independent.

I note that your dad has retired. Please give him my wishes for a

longand serenely happy retirement. He gave his profession great service.

Hisletters to The Irish Times were models of clarity and logic.

Best wishes, Pat Hunt

Hopefully this diagram will come through ok. Here

goes! B1 and B2 are

brothers. S1 and S2 are first cousins. G1 and G2 are

second cousins.

GG1 and GG2 are third cousins since all are on the

same horizontal line

of descendancy. However, G2 is a first cousin once

removed of S1 and G1

is a first cousin once removed of S2. GG1 is a first

cousin twice

removed of S2 and GG2 is a first cousin twice removed

of

S1. Moving down the line, GG1 is a second cousin once

removed of G2

and

GG2 is a second cousin once removed of G1.

Hope this comes through the way it should.

MaryAnn,

Would it be too much trouble if you could check on one

more? My ggrandfather Patrick Crean was born in Sligo

1849-1850 (died in 1918 with the ages of 68 & 69

reported on two different documents). I believe his

father was James Crean. But I'm looking to confirm.

Patrick married Elizabeth Skeffington around 1868 -

70. Their first daughter Mary was born in 1870. If

they have the marriage & or birth certificate of

Patrick that would be a big help.

Thank you.

I hate to take advantage of your kind offer, MaryAnn, but since my

great-grandfather may be related to Sean Crean's great-grandfather and

may befound in the same place, I would ask if you could make a note of a

Michael Creanas well. I have very little information on him other than he was born

in Sligoaround 1849 and married Celia Conmy, also from Sligo sometime around

1876. Thecouple had approximately eleven children together. Both Michale and

Celia diedin 1920, in Sligo, Kilglass parish. Celia was herself born in Sligo

around1850-52.

Whatever you find would be extremely appreciated. Thank you in

I'm not sure why it's so quiet. There remains about 70 or so

subscribers, about a third to a half of whom are cryan researchers in particular.

There have been some crean postings and crehan lately, but no real response,

at least through the list, to the posters. My 5 year old starts school in

a few weeks, maybe then I'll have a chance to hit a library (the baby is a

sleepy little guy) and post a list of names from some resource. I have to

figure out what libraries are good around here, which university libraries i

might be able to get access to, etc. I may have lived in DC for 18 months

now, but I still haven't a clue beyond the basics. A neighbor works for the

Library of Congress, however, and maybe she can advise re: area libraries --

she's a technology librarian, but she should know something that could help me.

I'm also going to try again with the cemetery where my Ggrandmother was

buried, to see what info I can get there. I'll keep you posted, and hope

you'll do the same, LeslieFrom:
