Subject: A brief Hello from a Cryans.......

To: caoimhghin@yahoo.com

    Hello Caoimhghin,

 

I've just found your website while looking for some information on my family name, CRYANS.

 

Your site is pretty amazing.

 

Most of my family are in the Glasgow area, though I live about 30 miles north of London in Hertfordshire.

 

I am only just starting to look into this family history stuff but I believe that my family had moved from the Sligo area around the time of the Famine.

 

Well, just saying hello really, and no need to bother replying as you must get zillions of e-mails each day from family history buffs.

 

Cheerio the noo,

 

Joe Cryans

Me neither. Hope all are well and do let us know

 updates on your family

research. My cryan lines come from Brogher

 townland (County Sligo),

Swampscott, Wareham and Somerset (Massachusetts),

 and Mercer County

(Pennsylvania). The family spelled the name Crain

 in western Pennsylvania.

Hi everyone,

Regarding the name my family who moved from Sligo

 in 1870 to Glasgow had the

name on various documents as,  Crinn  Creon Cryan

 Crean Creighan and finally

Cryans,when you have an Irishman relaying info to

 a Scotsman they most

probably got as near phonetically as possible. I

 do think that it also

depends on where you lived re.dialect etc. in

 Ballymote they tend to say

Crine as opposed to Cry -an,where as the further

 south you go say towards

Roscommon and Leitrim(Carrick on Shannon) they

 say Cry-an in Mayo they would

say Cre-han.If you look up the various records

 for Tawnagh Parish

(Riverstown) Sligo  between 1800 -1830 the name

 is Krine.

Can anyone help me with regard to my family, my

 grandfather was Patrick

Cryan ,he had 10 children 9 boys 1girl he named

 his first son after his

father Owen and the others were the usual ones

 Joseph John's etc and a

Patrick who died aged 15 years,but i noticed that

 only my father named me

after his father,when you think there were over

 35 grandchildren but only

one named after the grandfather unusual? would

 this be due to superstition

because my Uncle Patrick died so young,any

 thought's.

Best wishes Patrick

I came across some of your entries by accident in a Google Search.  A lot of the places the Cryan Family come from are Townlands in the Parish of Boyle, Co.

Very interesting, Caoimhghin.

 

I seem to recall coming across his name a number

 of years ago; let us say

about 20 or 25, if I am not mistaken.  I vaguely

 recall that he was tried

and convicted and then shot in Dublin.  When I

 went back to do further

research on him, I could not find any reference

 and due to my somewhat

addled mind, I could not recall where I saw the

 original reference.  So

please, do not ask me.  I am approaching the age

 where I have to remember

whether or not I put my pants on before I go out

 of the house.

 

On the other hand, since he was a Wexford man, he

 is no doubt descended from

the Cranes or Creanes of Slovey, County Wexford.

  That is where I found the

heaviest concentration of this branch of the

 family.  I have made mention of

that fact in my book, "Green Is The Valley, Blue

 Are The Hills."  The

Creanes or Cranes of Slovey devoted over 30 sons

 and daughters to the

Catholic clergy going back to 1690.  I had the

 distinct honor of visiting

with and shaking the hand of Peter Crane who was

 the last male surviving

member of that family.  Peter, God rest his soul,

 died in December of 1983.

 

A further note is the fact that it has been

 believed by some others that

this branch of the Cranes were of Norman

 extraction.  Now that the Irish

spelling of his name has been definitely

 identified as being "Croidheain"

that puts him and, more than likely, the rest of

 the Cranes of Wexford in

the direct line of Irish ancestry such as

 yourself.

 

Given enough time; that is, provided we should

 live long enough to see it

come about, much of our interest in Irish

 genealogy will be satisfied.

Thanks to your eagle eye, Caoimhghin, another

 mystery may have been solved.

 

God bless,

 

Tom Crane (USA)

 

P.S.  For those who might be interested, my book

 is posted on the website,

"Fethard At Home" and can be read in its entirety

 free of charge.  The URL

is http://fethard.com/crane   Have a nice day!

Hi all,

Just obtained my results from the above test, and

 the man at Family Tree

DNA( Austin Rock) informs me that my  origins are

 in Mid- Ulster which

coincides with what a Dr Michael Cryan (Salthill

 Galway) told me over 20

years ago, that there is a family legend and a

 map showing the Cryne family

in what would be called Tyrone. The map by

 Baptista Boazio dated 1599 is

available from the British Museum. Michael's

 family originated in Keash Co

Sligo, there being 2 brothers Michael and

 Bernard, Michael moving to the

townland of Knocknaskea,Killavill near Gurteen

 Sligo about 1800 and Bernard

staying in Keash. A descendent Thomas Cryan lives

  in Knocknaskea  on the

original farm. Don't forget if any male Cryan's

 would like to carry out the

DNA test contact Family Tree on the internet it

 is very easy.

taking the test with Family Tree DNA the cost for

50.00(FIFTY) i and another cryan have taken the

You will need to be a male cryan for this

    Hi Kevin.

 

My brother John Paul Crean met you several years ago at a meeting in Galway and you gave him your e-mail address.

He said that you were looking up the ancestors of the Crean Family. He gave me this e-mail address but

I had lost it and have only just found itagain. I did attempt to trace you on a web site but I am not sure if it

was you that I turned up. Sadly my brother died three years ago, he is buried in Athlegue cemetery in

Roscommon.

 

My father was John Crean from Loughglynn he was born March 30 1893 and died in Northenden, Manchester

20th October 1967. His wife Martha Finan was also from Loughglynn and she outlived him by just four years.

 

If you can shed any light on the family history I would be pleased to hear it.

 

I look forward  to hear from you.

 With regards  Ann Simpson (nee Crean)

    Hi -

 

My name is Paul Gunning, I am from Sligo and previously was a reporter for the Roscommon Herald (I have met Father Leonard, a few times - he is possibly more intrigued with Junior GAA football than local history!!).

 

I read your comments regarding an inscription with the O'Crean family motto - ie Within Me Place a Pure Heart etc.

 

I too was curious if the said chair had anything to do with Bishop Crean, along with anything as to its provenance. It is possible, however, the Creans were in Sligo Town in O'Creans Castle and Andrew Crean was transplanted to Mayo in the 1650s. know that the Daniel Crean was OP of the Sligo Dominicians during the mid-1700s, it may have been his.

 

I have been researching the Sligo Creans for about a year.

 

Any assistance would be great.

 

Regards

 

Paul G.

Dear Caoimhghin

 

Thanks for your prompt reply and helpful link. I didn't actually see the picture previous to your email. I would be amazed and thrilled to discover if the connection with the Creans of Sligo is proven.

 

I searched eagerly to if there was any indication of the Creans' families crest -- but I couldn't see it -- however, it may have been there in the past, or alternately it may be there on closer inspection. Some might the motto, being a direct Bibilical quote is merely coincidental, however I think it is fair to say, on the balance of probabilities, it is most likely in some way associated with the Creans, considering their ecclesiastical associations in the North-West of Ireland.

 

As an aside, considering the Creans' maritime associations, it is ironically apt, that it was decided to transfix a helm upon the Throne!! 

 

In any event, you may be aware, that Dr Douglas Hyde has strong south Sligo links with his father was a Rector in Geevagh, Co Sligo (my mother's native parish) when he was born -- apparently he was born, when his mother was on a short visit to her family in Frenchpark.

 

As to the fFrenches of Frenchpark - they too -- like the Crean clan -- have very strong medieval Sligo Town connections, with both families, during the early C17th, being the leading money-lenders in the region.

 

I believe, the Frenchs, along with the Creans, were the most notable Sligo transplanted family post-1641. This is important because Sligo was the only county in the West where the native Irish were not permitted to move, due to the fact the soliders from the Elizabethan period had already taken most of the plum locations, and there was no room for the natives!

 

You are aware, I am sure, of the fact that Bishop Crean - had the notable distinction of being simulateanously, the Bishop of Elphin for the Established Church and the Roman Catholic Church. To become the Established Bishop he had to travel Dublin to be granted his Government's approval, which provided him with the rights regarding Tithes etc. Previously, he had travelled to Rome on his way to the Eternal City, but became ill in France and never made it there.

 

As, like so many of the Creans of Sligo Town, successfully straddled, intra-Gaelic worlds between Lower Connaught and Tyrconnell, along with the advancing despite the turbulent relationships between the Irish and English, it came as no surprise that Bishop Crean achieved this feat of ecumenicalism!

 

It is generally assumed, Sligo Abbey, in which this throne -- if it belonged to Bishop Crean -- was destroyed in 1641, burned by the Cromwellian leader, and successfully Planter Francis Hamilton, by my research shows this to be propaganda and untrue. The imputation is that the fabric and materials within the Abbey were destroyed -- which was again compounded by the inequities during the Penal Era. However, these assertions are somewhat simplistic and erroneous historically.

 

I would have thought any artefacts belonging to the Creans of this nature, would have been coveted by the prestigious and high-ranking Creans in Crean Castle or by Andrew Crean of Annaghmore -- who I referred to previously. However, it is quite possible, the Church (of which denomination, we'll have to yet discover maintained the period piece!) managed to maintain possession of the Throne. The intrigue of it all!!

 

I too would love to have the throne inspected and appraised, by an expert so to have it dated and acquire some information regarding its provenance, with particular reference to its wood, style, joints etc so as to date it accurately.

 

My first impression is that it could hardly be Elizabethan -- then again, some elements of it could have been incorporated into a pre-existing Throne. Also, the Latin phrase, which was synonymous with Sligo/Gaelic and ultimately Catholic overtones would have have found favour in the C17th/C18th Sligo which outside of Ulster was the most Protestant urban centre in Ireland, so this particular piece of furniture may have become repugnant to the Faithful in Sligo.

 

In any event, let's see. It's a wonderful find with potentially huge significance concerning the travails of the Creans of Sligo Town.

 

I have been researching, with the view to publish a book regarding the history of Sligo, for a number of years  (on and off) however I don't know if I'll ever finish it or ultimately be prepared to have it published. In any event, I am hoping to give a talk regarding the O'Crean Clan of Sligo -- there are, I believe, some very significant historical points to made concerning their history, which really touches upon the history of South Donegal, North Sligo and Moylurg (as the Creans intermarried withRThe MacDermotts of Drumadoney).

 

I have attempted, to pen my research over the Christmas, it rapidly expanded to 100 A4 pages, to I haven't had the time to finialise my research and theories -- as I am taking by final exams in Kings Inns. Until then, I won't be in a position to add anything to the Cryan thread.

 

Once again, thanks for your help and emails. Talk to you soon.

 

Regards

 

Paul Gunning

http://geocities.com/caoimhghin/familyhistory.html

 ]

so the best thing is to download all the files

 and do

a search on Croghan. Also you could join the

 Cryan

list and then post all your details as there are

 many

researchers who know a lot on the different

 variations

of the name.

 

good luck with the search

Subject: [CRYAN] The townland of Carrownamaddoo in the Parish of St John; s Sligo

   

Hi,

Anyone help with any info on the above townland ?

 I have turned my research

into the area as i have discovered a Owen Judge

 and Patt Cryan living side

by side according to the Tithe Records .In the

 Griffith's there is only Patt

Cryan shown i think a daughter Mary Cryan married

  a Patrick Hargadon about

1880 i think he may have been from a townland

 near Ballysadare but on the

1901 census they are shown as living in

 Carrownamaddoo.

I have sent off for copies of the Land records

 from Abbey Life (The

Valuation Office) Dublin they start about 1858

 -1950 to see what they show

as my family left about 1870 to live in Glasgow.

I have also found a death of a Patrick Cryan 1879

 in Anaghermore(not sure of

spelling) near Ballysadare my ancestor who was a

 Patrick was dead prior to

1880 so this could be a link.

Anyone have any info that could help please

 contact.Would anyone know what

would be the nearest church that they would have

 attended as St John's was a

way off to the north.

Hi Jeff,

May be the Dr Cryan was related to the Cryan's

 who left for the USA,they

were Martin Cryan and  a Daniel Cryan who

 originated from Co Roscommon being

the children of Daniel Cryan and i think a

 Margaret McDonagh.

They may have lived in the Maryhill area of

 Glasgow.

Just to clarify . Maryhill is a district in the

 west end of Glasgow . Paisley in a separate town

 or Burgh as we call them in Scotland, around 8

 miles away from Glasgow. There was only one Doctor

 Daniel Cryan in Paisley and he was my uncle. I

 don't know of any Doctor Cryan from Maryhill.

 

Regards

 

Daniel Cryan

Hi Daniel,

Thanks for replying.

My interest in Dr Cryan was a long shot, as his

 name appeared on the

recently discovered death certificate of my

 grandmother Helen Taylor, the

death was registered by her daughter Jean Krennen

 (Jane Taylor)  in 1961. My

mother was adopted at birth, so knew nothing of

 her birth mother or that she

had a sister. Have been trying to locate Jean.  -

 address was in Crawfurd

Drive, Paisley then in 1961. I thought if Dr

 Cryan was alive, he might have

known Jean as a patient, and what became of her.

regards,

JEFF
