Hugh V & Catherine Phelan Cleary were my great, great grandparents. No relations to Bishop Cleary, but I'm trying to figure out where they came from in Ireland. Family rumor says Tipperary and Galway, respectively. I believe they're buried in St. Mary's Cemetery in Kingston, Ontario.

Do you have any info on Hugh & Catherine?

I am your relative.

Loretta was my Great Grandmother. Born in 1880 in NYC.

She married a Walter Vincent McCoy around 1903. Had a child (My grandfather Cecil) in 1904.

Loretta passed away November 14th 1918 in the Bronx and is burred in St Raymonds, Cemetary in NYC.

I've love to hear more about your family history as I know very little about Peter and Mary.

My e-mail is daveruss@gmail.com for ANYONE whom might have knowledge of the Tighe's

John Cleary (b.1876) married to Mary Fogarty (b.1881)

cbrentcox — 2012-04-12 18:12:05Z

I'm looking for information about the children of John and Mary Cleary (nee Fogarty). John Cleary was born in 1876 in Ireland. Mary, also from Ireland, was born in 1881. The were married in New York.

I'm particularly looking for one child in particular who was called Cecelia (or Celie). I find no record of a Cecelia, so that may have been a middle name or even nickname.

Any information would be very helpful.

Cecelia (I'm told) married a man whose last name was Schmidt or Shmitt, and they had a son named George Carl. George was later raised by his aunt (Cecelia's sister) Catherine Elizabeth Cleary.

Please do add any information if you have it, or feel free to get in touch with me personally. George Carl was my father.

Re: Cleary

Death of A. S. Cleary - in California, 1924

mjmiddendorf — 2012-03-16 00:03:11Z

Transcribing obits and death announcements from our local paper (Scotia, Nebraska- near North Loup, Nebraska). Thought someone might be interested in this:

The Scotia Register
Volume XXXII, Thursday, September 2, 1926, pg. 1, column 6
BODY OF A. CLEARY FOUND
The body of A. S. Cleary, formerly of North Loup, who disappeared from Forest Home mountain resort in California, August 28, 1924, was found by two young men hikers on August 16, 1926.
The body was discovered part way down the steep slope of a mountain where it had lodged in a fallen tree and remained for two years undisturbed, although repeated searching parties had scoured the mountain sides in all directions.
John and Charley Cleary of Santa Ana, were notified and they immediately went to San Bernardino, and in company with the coroner and others, got the body and identified it.
Mr. Cleary had evidently followed a mountain path and climbed to quite a height when he either fell or slipped, or else suffered an attack of heart failure. The body was in a dried and mummified condition which made recognition possible.

Re: Mary Cleary m. Edward Spillane, Tipperary, probably 1860

Jeannie I don't recall answering this post. I have a checkmark before the words, "Send me an alert when anyone replies to this thread," but I often don't get them.
I am primarily researching the name Spillane, but sometimes, if I can find a living descendant, they have information on both the mother's and the father's family.
I did some checking and it looks as if Catherine Spillane, daughter of Edward Spillane and Mary Cleary married a Powell. If you would like me to work with you to see what direction each of us could take, you could email me. My email address is janfortado"at"comcast.net (using "at" these days because of large amount of spam). SMILE!

Re: John Patrick CLEARY - Ireland > Quebec in 1842

My great Grandfather was John Patrick Cleary that lived in Granby Quebec. I know that his father was also John Patrick Cleary who emigrated from County Claire Ireland. I have his fiddle hanging in my dining room. This is one of the items that he brought over with him when he cam over. Perhaps we are related. My grandmother Alice Cleary married Daniel Murray. Both my grandparents passed away with the Spanish flu between 1918 and 1922. My great grandparents are buried in St.Joachim Quebec. Please let me know if this is the same or similar information that you have

Re: Vital stats for Maurice G. & May (McAvoy) CLEARY & children

SusanHonea — 2011-11-13 17:02:18Z

Hi Catherine, I'm Susan Honea and my great grandfather was Victor Shuler who filmed silent movies during the 1920's. My son is making a film about Victor and through our research we found that my great aunt, Victor's daughter-in-law knew May McAvoy. May gave my great aunt, Ruth Gregory Shuler some of her "movie star" clothes and even some furs which Aunt Ruth's daughter Dixie found after Ruth's death; the furs had deteriorated because they weren't stored properly. Anyway, I wondered if you had any photos of my family among May's belongings or letters from them, etc. We have a newspaper clipping of Patrick's birth announcement with May holding newborn Patrick (who was a beautiful baby). You can view more about the film at victorshulermovie.com Thank you!

Hi there - my great great grandparents were Thomas and Ellen Tubridy, from Co. Clare. However, I think mine were married well before 1870, as my great grandfather John was born in 1865. I'm not positive that Ellen was Ellen Cleary. Do you have any other information to go on? My family came from Kilmihill/Glenmore.

Hi Janet,

After corresponding with the Cleary person in England, it is my belief (and hers) that she is not related to this Cleary family from Geashill. Her line and my line back to 1810 are from Tullamore. She goes back 1 generation further than myself. She no longer has an e-mail address as her account was hacked about 8 months. All communication is now by snail mail. If you still have questions please let me know.

Re: Judith Parle married Patrick/Nicholas Cleary Duncormick Co Wexford

roswex09 — 2011-06-04 22:07:21Z

Hi Regina, yes 1835 they got married. As far as I know they had 4 children, Catherine, Matthew and Richard. When Nicholas died at a young age Judith married his brother Patrick it seems and they had a son John (born 1852). John emigrated to the US around 1875 and settled in Ohio I think. His half Matthew (born 1846)and sister Catherine (born 1838)settled in Pittsburg PA. There doesnt seem to be any record of a Bridgid in our family tree but I will check it out.
