GAYNOR - County Longford Ireland to Dover, Dearborn Co. Indiana

annbergelt — 2009-10-23 12:47:31Z

I am looking for information and further connections to William GAYNOR, born 1832 in Longford, Ireland. He came to the US and settled in Dover, Dearborn County, Indiana with brothers James, Thomas and possibly Patrick. Need to know specifically where the records would be found -- village, townland, etc. Will be glad to share what I have on this family and others who married into it.

Re: Ann Gaynor from Longford, IRE

annbergelt — 2009-10-23 12:42:39Z

I am also searching for information regarding GAYNORS who came from Co. Longford, Ireland and settled in Dover, Dearborn County, Ireland. I may be able to help you in your search and will have to check old files on the family.

Feel free to contact me directly at AnnBergelt@aol.com if I can help you, or if you have further information to share.

Woohoo! I have little research on the Shannon's as they are "married " in. My Dora Ryan is a different branch. I don't want to post personal info on this message board. email me at tiquer40@aol.com

Re: GAYNOR - HELP!!!!!

oryanr — 2009-04-29 17:03:54Z

You show Gertrude Gaynor having married Hubert P. Shannon. Hubert's mother was Mary Hanora Ryan, daughter of George Ryan and Nellie Hassett. Nora Ryan's name as several variations - if you have seen it spelled as Dora I would very much like to see that. Nora married David Shannon, the wholesale meat dealer/butcher. David was born Jul 1943, probably Cork area, though I don't remember where I got that. Have to check sources. He died 21 Mar 1908 in New York. His parents were David Shannon and Ellen Roach, both born and died in Ireland.

Re: GAYNOR - HELP!!!!!

I can help with the Shannon family, as I have been trying to get information on someone (Nora Ryan) way back in their tree. There is a Shannon Family Tree on ancestry.com but the profile for the owner of that tree, tbs4fort, cannot be retrieved to leave them a message.

The parents of John, James, Honora were Patrick and Bridget, from James' marriage to Mary Daly in Natchez.

Also, Honora lived in a house on Chippewa St, 11 ward, New Orleans that was owned by James. In his will, he noted that she could stay in the house for as long as she lived but that the house would revert to his wife Mary thereafter.

Hi.

I am just starting to look into my family tree and would be grateful for any info anyone may have, I don't have much to start with I'm afraid but here goes.

I am looking for the family of John Gaynor, we believe he came from Boston and came to England with The American Navy during the 2nd World War.

He married a lady called Dyliss Moira Pugh (with a thousand different spelling variations) and had Two Children Robert and Ailsa.

He died toward the end on the war, not sure if in battle.

Hope to hear from someone soon.

It was just by chance that I saw your message.
I am a granddaughter of Patrick J. My father was Mark - born in 1916 (not 1917), Passed away 12-7-02, have wonderful memories of my Great-Aunt Martha! Such as spending the night at her apartment in Rogers Park with her granddaughter, Mary Martha. Aunt Mayme and Aunt Helen also would visit for weddings and graduations.
I am quite sure my mother still keeps in contact with some of the relatives. She is now - from what I understand...the oldest of the relatives left. Uncle Pat's wife passed away this month at 93.
This may all be old news to you, but just incase - I thought I would reply.
We went to Ireland in '02 and I was under the impression that the county they were from is Westmeath. Our cousin, (daugher of Samuel)was there years ago, and has some documentation from a church(?) & has some photos of Catherine - quite a severe looking woman! I have - if the story is true, a rocking chair of hers.

Re: JOHN GAYNOR,b.Co.Cavan,1827

MaxWard44 — 2008-02-06 17:45:47Z

I believe I can verify that John was the brother of James Sydney Gaynor, born in County Cavan 8 Apr 1833, died in Natchez, MS 11 Nov 1902.

James owned a plantation called the Omega Plantation in Concordia Parish, Louisiana. Initially, one parcel of land was purchased by John Gaynor (of Ohio) just after the end of the Civil War and then sold to James a year later.

James S Gaynor had been drafted into the Breckenridge Guards of the Mississippi Cavalry, was captured at the battle of Missionary Ridge, and then released from the Union prison in Rock Island, Illinois a year later. The land purchase by John may have had something to do with James serving in the Confederate cause.

I'd like to exchange information about John and James (I believe I have parents' names as well).

Hello, I am looking for any info, in particular a maiden name and the name of her husband. Ann Gaynor was born in 1805 in Longford, IRE. She died in Dearborn, Indiana in 1884. We know she came to the USA with her 5 children, Margaret Reilly born in 1841 is my ancestor, after her husband died in an accident some time around 1848. She also shows up as Annie Gaynor. We think she came to USA through New Orleans but we cannot find and passenger list with her name. We also can't find any records of her from Ireland.
