Subject: From Arthur Cryan's Family

Family, friends,

 

Dad, pop, uncle, grandpa, papa and anything else anyone called him - Arthur P. Cryan, Sr. who was born in Lowell, Massachusetts on June 25, 1911, died in the same city today, October 15, 2001.

 

Thankfully he had ninety good years and a few bad weeks. He was conscious and aware until the end. After his most recent stroke which left him unable to communicate, he became somewhat frustrated with his inability to speak or write and stopped eating.  He died peacefully this morning at 6:30.

 

In keeping with his wishes, there will not be a wake. There will be a memorial service at St. Patrick's church in Lowell this Saturday, October 20th, at 9:00am.

 

His fervent favorite charity was the St. Vincent de Paul Society at St. Patrick's. Donations in his memory can be sent to: St. Vincent de Paul Society, c/o Fr. Spagnolia, St. Patrick's Church, 282 Suffolk Street, Lowell, MA 01854.

 

There will be a gathering of friends and family at the home of Terry and Peter Cryan, 56 Century Mill Road, Bolton, Mass. after the memorial service. Driving from Lowell take I495 South to exit 27, Rte. 117 Bolton/Stow. Turn right toward Stow at the bottom of the ramp on 117. In a quarter of a mile turn right on Rte. 85 toward Hudson. Exactly one mile from the start of Rte. 85 you will find Century Mill Road on the right. 56 is a third of a mile down the road on the left. Call 978/779-0723 if you need help.

 

Hope to see you on Saturday.

 

His family.

Subject:  [Cryan et al.] CRYAN-L: Atty's oldest daughter!

To:          CRYAN-L@rootsweb.com

The story so far: Our ancestor Aracte McDonagh (Atty McDonough) was

baptized

at Aghanagh RC Parish in 1804, married John Cryan and had that marriage

registered at Boyle RC Parish in 1825, and had an army of kids, all

baptized

at Tawnagh RC Parish. The oldest was Bridget, baptized in May 1826.

Then

came Winifred, Sarah, Patrick, Mary, Mark, John, Timothy, Michael and

James

(not necessarily in that order). Sometime between 1846 (when the

youngest

child was born) and 1848, John died. Atty took the kids and emigrated

to

America on the ship Epaminondas, landing at Boston in June of 1848. In

1850,

she and her brother-in-law Mark Cryan and the kids were in Leominster,

Massachusetts, and by 1855, the whole crowd was settled in Wisconsin,

where

they flourished.

-- Except for Bridget. We never found any more evidence of Bridget's

life

besides her baptismal record. We thought that perhaps she too died in

Ireland, or that she married and stayed there with her husband. No

clues.

-- Until this week! One of our cousins visited another recently-found

cousin

and they went through the old family Bible. Listed in the family Bible

is

this: Bridget Crain McDonough, died Boston, November 22, 1849. Her

daughter,

Sara Jane, died Leominster, Mass., July 15, 1850. We don't have an age

for

Sara Jane.

-- Anyone have any info about a marriage between Bridget

Crain/Crane/Cryan

and a McDonough/McDonagh in Ireland? Maybe a baptismal record for Sara

Jane?

-- Every clue brings more questions!

 

Happy Thanksgiving to all,

A. Riley

Another proud descendant of Atty Crain

Hi again,

This is all that you give -

 

Bridget Crain McDonough, died Boston, November 22, 1849. Her daughter,

Sara Jane, died Leominster, Mass., July 15, 1850. We don't have an age

for

Sara Jane.

 

I think that I have already given to you the baptism dates of all

Atty's

children except Timothy which I do not have. I also have an Anne (bapt

10

Oct 1837) which you do not mention. If any of your dates are missing do

let

met know and I can sent it to you.

 

I do not have a marriage of a Bridget Cryan McDonough (or variations in

spelling) of the right age. I would have expected that Bridget(Atty's

daughter would have been at least 15 on marriage and therefore the

marriage

would be after 1841.

However I do have a child of a marriage Crine/McDonogh from Aghanagh

parish

which could be of either a sister of John (Atty's husband) or a brother

of

Atty or both. Your Bridget being about 4 at the time.

 

MC DONOGH Mariam

Female : Christening date 6 March 1830: Aghanagh RC

parents Jacobi Mc DONOGH and Brigidae CRINE

(obviously transcribed from the Latin (Mary or Maria, James and Brigid)

 

I can not find any other children of this marriage so perhaps they

emigrated

too.

I could not find Sara Jane in the records that I have.

 

If you could find them on one of the USA censuses or immigrant ships or

even

find Sara Jane in the BMDs (1830 -her death) perhaps one could find out

more

about the relationship.

 

I hope that this is helpful.

Eve

A Row On The Road From Boyle

 

Patrick Dyer, Carrowcrory, charged Michael Cryan, of

the same locality, with assaulting him on the 15th

January.

Dyer deposed – On last Saturday week, I was coming

home from Boyle, and this boy was before me on the

road. When he came out and struck me a blow of a stick

on the head I afterwards got three blows of it. I

could not swear who gave me the other three blows, as

I was stunned at the first. I heard noise and saw

three or four fellows going away. Cryan was the first

that came up to me. I left Boyle that evening about 5

o’clock, and this occurred at 6:30. There was no one

with me, and I had only two glasses of rum taken that

day. I did not speak to him and he to me. The blood

from my head is on my coat yet. I can show the cuts on

my head yet.

Cross-examined by the defendant – I used not to be

[showing?] coming along the road in the evening.

John Cryan, father of the defendant, deposed he was in

Boyle that day and heard Dyer swear he had no drink

taken. He left him in Boyle that evening after 5

o’clock, and he was then staggering backward and

forward about the town.

Dyer – When I saw you on the street that day, did I

not shake hands with you? – You did.

Michael [...] stated Cryan never struck Dyer. He was

there, and saw a man on a cart, but could not say if

it were Dyer. Cryan was along with him as were also

James Cryan, Batty Brehony, Owen Brehony, and Roddy

Cryan; they all left Pat Evans’s together.

Mr. Henn – Do the police know anything about the case?

Sergeant B[...] – I made inquiries about the matter,

as Dyer’s son reported to the police. Mr. Henn said he

would adjourn the case to enable the police to inquire

further into the matter.

The Ballinultha Feud Again

Hugh Rorke, of Ballinultha summoned his neighbour, Mrs

Honoria Cryan, for the trespass of a bullock in his

cabbage garden. He deposed that he gave up the bullock

to Mrs Cryan’s son.

On cross-examining by Mr McMorrow, solicitor, he

denied that the bullock was only a few minutes

trespassing, and he would have been there till morning

only his daughter saw him going in.

Mr McMorrow - You are a very troublesome fellow, and

fond of giving trouble to these people with the law.

Rorke (laughing) - Ha!

Capt. Peel gave a decree for 6d and costs.

Rorke’s son, James, summoned James Cryan for

assaulting him on this occasion. He said that Cryan

sat on the stile and challenged him to fight him, in

his barn. He was willing to fight him where he was.

Cryan then struck him.

Capt. Peel - There is a cross case against you.

Rorke - I was not served with the summons. I got it

only a while ago.

Mr Gillespie - Oh that does not matter, you are here

now.

Cross-examined by Mr McMorrow, Rorke said - The calf

was in our cabbage when this happened. On this day I

never threatened to pull him off the stile. I have my

story told now.

Did you try to strike him with stones? -

When he took a loy, I took up two stones in my own

defence, but I never fired.

Did your brothers, John, Patrick and Farrell, go out

to join in the attack on him?

They are only young children ; they held me, and kept

me from him.

Mr McMorrow - Go down! You must have been like a

raging lion when your own brothers had to hold you.

Hugh Rorke, the complainant’s father, deposed that he

saw the stream of blood coming down his son’s face

when Cryan struck him.

Mr McMorrow - You swear more than your son; he did not

swear that.

James Cryan was examined in this cross-case and said

that Hugh Rorke would not allow him drive the bullock

out on the gate of the field where he was trespassing.

The Rorke family then ran out with stones in their

hands and surrounded him, and he defended himself with

a loy. Hugh Rorke gave the calf such a welting that he

did not believe the calf would do any good.

Young Rorke pointed to a mark he had got on his

forehead.

Cryan - On your oath was it I put that on you?

Rorke - You renewed it. I got a blow of a flail

thrashing but you renewed it (laughter).

John Cryan was also examined, but gave his evidence in

a very stupid way.

Capt. Peel asked why did they not jump out the bullock

where he jumped in.

Mr McMorrow - He would want to be like Mr Nolan’s

jumping cow to do that (laughter).

James Cryan was fined 5s and costs, and the cross-case

was dismissed.

A case for trespass of goats against Hugh Rorke was

adjourned for the production of his little son.

“Mohill Board of Guardians”

 

“Never Wanted Relief”

 

Patrick Cryan, Furness, applied for relief on a plea

of destitution.  The guardians refused it on the

grounds that the man was able to work and called him

before the board to inform him of their decision.

When he came in he appeared very mild, and when

informed of the result of the guardians decision he

became enraged and excitedly proclaimed that he never

wanted the guardians’ relief and if he had to apply

again he would not do so.  They could hold it

(laughter).  He then departed.

 

The guardians then adjourned.

An inmate named Crean having five children with him in

secure employment.  By keeping hem there it would be

only an additional expense on the rates.

 

Chairman – I believe he is a respectable man.  If he

Mr McGreevy – I quite agree with you.  He is a strong

and healthy man, and willing to work outside.

 

Clerk – I daresay you can give him a month.

“Kilmore Branch (Co. Roscommon).

 

A meeting of this branch was held on Sunday, May 1st.

the president, Mr John Flood, P. L. G., occupied the

chair.  Others present – Messrs Pat Beirne, Thomas

Caslin, James Feeny, P. J. Connellan, sec., John

Caslin, Jas Hanly, Pat Neary, Pat Carroll, Frank

Murray, Thomas Healy, Pat Fitzsimons, John Conlon.

After enrolling several new members, the Chairman gave

some practical instructions with regard to

registration.  He pointed out how necessary it was to

have the Franchise papers properly filled, and hoped

every man favourable to the National cause, who is

entitled to vote, will see and have his name on the

register.  Dominick Cryan, an evicted tenant, came

before the meeting with a letter from our Parnellite

neighbours, addressed to the chairman, asking us to

sanction a grant of £2 out of the Evicted tenants’

Fund towards Dominick.  This case was discussed some

twelve months ago before, and as we from start to

finish admitted the justice of Dominick's claim, and

as our Parnellite neighbours were not able to meet us

half way and relieve him out of the local funds, the

committee unanimously agreed to sanction the grant.

Other routine business was disposed of, and the

meeting adjourned to Sunday, 15th inst, after Mass.–

P. J. Connellan, hon. Sec.

P.

 

Assault

 

The Crown at the suit of district Inspector Feely

prosecuted named Lowe for assaulting M. Beirne.

 

Mr MacDermot, solicitor, appeared for the defence.

 

Old Beirne deposed that his son, Malachi Beirne, who

was assaulted, could not attend as he was at

Strand-hill.  He and his son were cleaning a bank on

the 6th of June, James Lowe and John Lowe came and

began to remove the turf.  His son went to prevent

them.  James Lowe rushed at him and knocked him down.

John Lowe struck him with a spade on the side of the

head inflicting a deep wound from the effects of which

he lay for some weeks.  James Lowe caught him

(witness) by the throat, and having thrown him kicked

him in the face.

 

Cross-examined by Mr MacDermot – I did not know

whehter the place where I was cutting was within

Lowe’s boundary as both claimed it.

 

Bridget Cryan was examined for the defence.  She

deposed that she saw the Lowes throwing Beirne’s turf

back from where it was.  Beirne came over with a slane

in his hand.  Lowe met him and caught hold of the

slane.  Four men then came on the scene, and from that

she did not know who was striking.  She saw a cut on

Lowe’s breast aftewards [sic] as if from the wing of a

slane. 

 

Patrick Lowe and Michael Cryan gave similar evidence.

 

It was mentioned that the money which Beirne was to

receive from Lowe was in bank.

 

Capt. McTernan suggested that the case be adjourned

for a fortnight.

 

Mr MacDermot requested that no more petty evidence be

taken.

 

Capt. McTernan said if a settlement were not arrived

at during the interval he would give his decision

without further evidence.

Roscommon Herald 16 July 1892

 

Boyle Petty Sessions

 

The presiding magistrates at the court on Wednesday

last were – R. G. Bull, R. M., and Capt McTernan, R.

M.

 

A Ballinultha Row

 

Hugh Rorke, of Ballinultha, summoned his neighbour,

James Cryan, for breaking down his fence and injuring

his crops.  There was also a cross-case.

 

Mr MacDermot appeared for Rorke, and Mr Robinson for

Cryan.

 

Hugh Rorke deposed that on the 21st of April James

Cryan threw his mearing on his crop.  He also

attempted to throw a stone on him 2 1D 2 cwt weight.

Cryan threw stones on his (Rorke s) oats and potatoes.

 The mearing between them was divided eighty years

ago.  Cryan had no reason to interfere with it only

for his bad temper.

John Rorke, Pat Rorke and James Rorke gave

corroborative evidence.

 

Mrs Cryan deposed that the gate on her mearing wall

was thrown by the Rorkes.  Her husband always made up

the fence.  There was a wooden post put down as a

pier, and Rorke took the whole thing away.   The

mearing was hers, and on a former occasion Rorke

summoned her for sheep crossing it. 

 

Mr MacDermott [sic] – And take it for granted that it

is your mearing, your son was not justified in

throwing stones into the man’s crops.

 

Mr Bull said Cryan should pay 5s fine, 10s

compensation and costs. 

 

The cross-case was then gone into when it was shown

that the Rorkes maliciously broke the capstone of the

pier.

 

Denis Loughna, Boyle, deposed that he was at the

place.  There was nothing injured but the capstone of

the pier.  The gate was a little injured.

 

James Beirne deposed that half the gate was broken.

 

To Mr MacDermot – I live nearly three miles from the

place.  I am a brother to Mrs Cryan.

 

Mr MacDermot – She went far to get a witness.  Your

evidence will be taken for what it is worth.

 

The Bench imposed a fine of five shillings, ten

shillings compensation and costs.

 

Assault

 

Arising out of the above case, James Cryan summoned

James Rorke for assaulting him on the 21st of April.

 

Cryan deposed that when he was going to remove the

capstone Rorke jumped on his hand, and assaulted him.

Rorke followed him to his own door wanting him to

fight, and he had nine others with him.

 

To Mr MacDermot – I would have summoned him before

this but my attorney was away.  I was bound to the

peace the last court day and fined.

 

Several witnesses were examined for the defence. 

 

An old man named Rorke deposed that defendant did not

put hand or foot on Cryan.  Cryan would swear the

“sowl” [sic] out of his body to get satisfaction

(laughter). 

 

The case was dismissed.

Hi

Happy Christmas and New Year to everyone. I am nearing

the end of the articles already researched and would

like to thank everyone who helped with the typing. We

have got through a huge amount of work and I hope it

has been beneficial for at least some people out

there.

I will be going back to the National Library next week

so there will be more on their way soon!

regards to all
