I think Roger has

And, Roger,yourspelling reminds me of Wendy's ancestor, Thomas

You might want to start looking at Croghans --sinceCrowen has been a

somethinglike
Croghan. How DO you Croghans pronounce
it?? Could Crowen be a
form ofCrown or
Cowan?It might be nice to do a phonetic roll-call at some point. Last week I
hadthe pleasure of
talking with Tom Crane, father to Lisa (she's on themailinglist). He has sent me a nice write-up on his family
line. He has beenableto trace his Crane
family line to the surnames Crean and Crehan, butanywherehe's heard
"Crehan" pronounced, it sounds "Crane" to him (he's got

The
Crane/Crean/Crehan and Cuddy/Cuddihy Family History, by Tom Crane:
1.
My GGgrandparents, Denis and Anne Cuddy.
These names and dates
aretaken from the
U.S. Census of 1880 wherein they were listed as living
in
myGgrandfather's (Patrick Crane) home as "boarders." Denis' occupation
wasgiven as
"blacksmith" and Anne's as "housewife." Because of the other
documents that I
have at hand, I have very reason to believe that the
DenisCuddy (b.
1810) and recorded in the 1880 Census is somehow directly
related tothe
Denis Cuddy listed in E.H. Sheehan's book titled, "Nenagh and Its
Neighborhood,"
wherein on page 77 the following entry is made under the
paragraph titled,
"Some Inscriptions From Tombs in Friary, Nenagh:"
Cuddy, Denis, - Grocer and
woolen-draper,
2.
Michael Crean and Mary Shea.
These names are taken from a
baptismalcertificate
that was provided to me by a Mr. Joseph Kennedy, farmer and
historian, of
Callan, Kilkenny. Joe Kennedy firmly
believes that the
baptismal
certificate is a true record of my Ggrandfather's (Patrick
Crean)baptism. The event took place on January 9, 1844, and
corresponds to
theexact year of
birth for the Patrick Crane that was listed on the
Censusof
1880. Patrick's parent's names were
given as Michael Crean and Mary
Sheaand the
sponsors were Thomas Coady and Catherine Shea.
The event was
recordedat the
Dioceseof Cashel.

Keash records To: CRYAN-L@rootsweb.com
Eve,
In relation to the
Keash film which you recently referred to, I have
the following
observations.
Earlier this year
(before this list started), I had the opportunity to look at the original Keash
records. While I did not note all Cryan details down as there were so many, I
had made note of some dates in
the intervals
which you indicate are missing. For example, I noted a marriage record of John
Creane to Eleanor Clarke on 19 Jan 1834, a marraige record for Marthin Cryan to
Anna Ward on 22 July 1845, and
many others
outside the time period which you saw.The records weren't ordered strictly in
sequence in the book, with many blank pages separating some years. I wonder
were mistakes made in
copying the
material to film and some of the original material omitted? There certainly
were some years missing from the originals, but Ididn't think it was to the
extent that the film you have suggests (just to
confirm you
indicated it had records for only 1842 -47, 1852-55 and 1872-80). The records I
looked at went from c 1843 (except for the one 1834 record to which I refer
above) to 1900.
There was a gap at
one stage, but I can't recall which years it was - but it was only of the order
of 10 years or less I think. Apparantly, the gap in the records was due to
their being burned by the parish
priest's
housekeeper over some row she had with the parish priest. It must have been a
pretty serious row!In relation to the John Cryan (s) and which of them is mine,
I don't know yet. Based on my current information, I'm almost certain that my
John Cryan's father was a Matthew Cryan - but I've yet to confirm this. I
notice that for one of the John's for whom you list the birth record- that one
of the godparents was a Matthew. Interesting as they may all have been cousins.
I had indicated in an email to the list way way back that I hoped to post the
details which I had recorded from Keash atsome stage. Perhaps we can
collaborate on this as between us, we will have got a good few of the pre-1900
records. I hope to return to Keash to look at the originals before posting my
information so that I can double-check it.

Another variation of the Cryan name
To: CRYAN-L@rootsweb.com
I recently picked
up a small booklet in a bookshop in
"The Abbey of
Kilnalahan" by Abbey Community Development Association.
Abbey is a village
in south-east
or friary in the
centre of the village. The abbey dated from the
mid-thirteenth
century and is now in ruins. It was ran by the
Carthusian monks
initially from 1252 to 1341. The Fransiscans ran it from 1341 for
500 years. I
haven't read the booklet in detail yet but on a quick scan
through it, it
lists the guardians of the abbey from 1629 to 1872. Of
the 70 guardians
listed, 23 were members of the de Burgo family. The de
Burgo family
(Burke) were the leading Norman family in
In amongst these
guardians is the name of Thomas Kyran, 1678-1681. 8 of
the 10 guardians
before him were de Burgos. This suggests that he must
have been a man of
some standing if he were intermingled with a leading
family such as the
de Burgos. It also suggests that he must have had
the means to
protect the friary from attack.
Note the
time-period in which this Kryan name is recorded - the 1600's.
I don't think we
have encountered a spelling of Cryan as Cryan beyond
the 1800's so far
- we've come across Crean and other variants before
then. It raises
the question of the origin of the name Cryan again.
Feel free to kick
me if this sounds like complete nonsense.
The spelling Cryan
is alot closer to this Kryan spelling than to other
spellings such as
Crean, etc. Just speculating, but I wonder if Cryan
is a completely
different name to Crean or if it in fact, derives from 2
different sources?
In MacLysaght's book "Irish Families, Their Names,
Arms and
Origins", he lists the O'Crean name and indicates that its the
same as Crehan and
Cregan and that the Irish version of these is
O'Croidheain or
O'Craidhen or O'Croidheagain.
Its spelling as
Cryan is notable by its absense from MacLysaght's list.
I know we had
other postings on this subject in the past but I cannot
recall the
conclusion. I'm not saying that MacLysaght is the gospel on
this stuff, but he
certainly knows alot more than me!
So continuing in
this vein, given that this Kryan who was guardian of
the abbey appears
to have been a man of power in the company of the de
he had some
connection with the Burkes. This is certainly worthy of more
investigation in
the future. There might even be papers preserved on
the de Burgo
family as a leading Norman family.
The source of the
list of guardians is given as "Liber Dubliniensis and
Liber Louvaniensis
in the Franciscan Friary Library, Killiney,
Perhaps sometime,
some of us might have an opportunity to see if there
is any more
information on this Kryan in that library. If we discover
that he was of
Norman origin, it will be a very interesting discovery
for some of us
indeed.
If anyone can
throw cold water on my theories above, please do. Even if
he's not a
same family as the
merchants of
their prominence.
regardsMichael

It should be noted
that when my Ggrandmother, Mary Crane was admitted
into thecounty
poor farm in

the mother of 10 children yet my father could only name
the same5 children
that were recorded on the U.S. Census of 1880.
Perhaps,
this

etc.]could explain
the gaps in the naming pattern as it related to Patrick's
andMary's
children.
3. Patrick Crehan and Mary Cuddihy. This entry relates to the record
ofmarriage that
was provided to me by the Nenagh Heritage Society by way
of Mr.Joseph
Kennedy. The event took place on August
2, 1863, at Silvermines,
Tipperary, and the
witnesses were Patrick Shaughnessy and Mary Gleeson.
4. Mary Crehan.
This entry relates to the register of birth of my
great-auntthat I
recieved from teh Irish Records Office.
I was led to this
document bythe
entry that I discovered and that was recorded on microfilm by The
Churchof Jesus
Christ and the Latter Day Saints (Mormons).
The information
that Ihave shown
is copied directly from the original.

(occupies her
mark)
When Registered:

What is
significant about this document is the fact that Anne Cuddihy
signedfor the
record of birth of ther granddaughter (Mary) to her own
daughter,
MaryCuddihy Crehan. Therefore, that Anne
Cuddihy could be none other than
theAnne Cuddy who
was listed as "Boarder" along with her husband, Denis
Cuddy,who both
lived in the home of my Ggrandfather, Patrick Crane, and who
wererecorded on
the U.S. Census of 1880. This supports
my claim that the
names,Cuddy and
Cuddihy, have been used interchangeably by my family as well
as havethe names
Crehan, Crane and Crean also been used interchangeably.
5. John Crane.
My grandfather. I have in my
possession a very
detailed copyof my
grandfather's death certificate. He died
in St. John's Hospital
inSpringfield, IL,
on April 10, 1946, and is buried in Calvary Cemetery.
Hisparents names
were given as Patrick Crane and Mary Cuddy.
In other

Eve, I'm reminded
of your "internet diet" -- I should be doingsomething less
fulfilling now,
but I can't stop!!!So just a quickie -- I'm very interested in the Kyran (or is
it Kryan?)
spelling. Not that I wish to be disrespectful, since
everyone I've comeacross views MacLysaght's publications as the authority in
thesequestions,but I've wondered exactly what his sources are (they aren't
footnoted). Yes,he references the tomb in Sligo, the Bishop fellow etc., but he
provides a lotmore
information than I've come across, even
with the help of all of

I'm also curious
as to why Cryan is lumped in with O'Crean (it is in
anotherof
MacLysaght's publications -- there are 3 books to my knowledge, and
byO'Hart as
well). Especially if "crean",
"crane", "crehan" are all
pronounced"crane"
-- my "Cryan" is most particularly "Cry-ann". Plus, has anyone
elsenoticed that
the Cryans, at least those posted to this list, don't have
thesame kind of
spelling changes/overlaps with other the O'Crean surname
variations (such
as Creaghan, Crean, etc.)? Maybe,

Erica - I've been

generously offered
to postlines of
research on your web page -- how many can you fit (grin)?
Would youaccept a
little write-up/ad for our mailing list, i.e., our general
lines
ofinquiry/topics of discussion?
Tom Crane's
family, conclusion:
7. This item relates to a family chart that was
provided to me by Mrs.
MarieO'Mearea
Crean whose late husband was Jimmy Crean of Fethard, Tipperary.
According to their
family chart, Jimmy Crean was descended from John
Crean andMary
Gleason. His father, John, was in turn
the son of Michael Crean
and MaryShea. This would make him the brother of Patrick
Crean (my
Ggrandfather)whose
baptismal certificate I have in my possession.
According to
Marie Creanand
some of Jimmy's relatives, John was known to have had a brother by
thename of Patrick
who had separated himself from the family with no known
accounting as to
whatever happened to him. Since Patrick
Crean of
Fethardshares the
same year of birth with the Patrick Crehan/Crane of
Silvermines,Nenagh,
as recorded on the U.S. Census of 1880, and the names of Patrick
Crean's parents of
Fethard, Tipperary, which is in keeping with the
Irishtradition of
assigning Christian names, it is believed by all concerned
thatboth of these
Patricks are one and the same. Perhaps,
through further
investigation,
performed either by myself or my descendants, that
reasoningwill gain
additional support so as to be totally conclusive.
In addition, Tom
has found information on two Patrick Crehans who were
bothborn c. 1840
in Bruff, Co. Limerick:
Although there was
not any record of the marriage of James Crehan and
MaryDaly, the
society did locate the record of marriage of Patrick Crehan
andElizabeth
Browne. They were married on the 26th of
February, 1838. The
witnesses to the
marriage were John Browne and Patrick Riordan.
James Crehan and
Mary Daly had the following issue in Bruff parish:
25-12-1838 Patrick
- godparents: Patrick Creahan & Catherine Creahan
15-03-1840 Mary -
godparents: Patrick Creahan & John Flaherty
19-06-1842 John -
godparents: Richard Fitzgerald & Anna Daly
15-08-1846 James -

Patrick Crehan and
Elizabeth Browne had the following issue in Bruff parish:
20-03-1839 Mary -
godparents: Michael Crehan & Catherine Browne

Hi all,
Either it's been so quiet or I've been so
busy I didn't notice many
holiday wishes on
the list. So, belated merry Christmas and other
seasonalgreetings
:) Now that I have nothing _but_ time for the next month I've
decided that it'd
be best to make a small faq, put it up somewhere and
addto it. I always
try to be exhaustive at the beginning and never get
stuffdone so this
should work better. Also I got some free AOL hours inside a
CD-ROM gift so I'm
going to try to look up Crehans in their member
directory or something.
Happy New Year to all if I don't hear or write
anything before
then.Sincerely,Theresa Mary

Re RORKE
Over my records
the name Farrel varies in its spelling considerably from
Fargallo to
Francis to Fergallus to Farrellii to all variations in one
family with the
same wife. So I must conclude that a Farrell could be
anyone of the
above variations
Thus - I have

parents Farrell
ROARK and Bridgetae WINN
Boyle RC Fergalus RORKE c 26 Jan 1827
parents Fergalus
RORKE and Brigida WINN
Boyle RC it would seem that Farrel(various spellings) RORKE and Brigid
WINN/WYNNE had 10 children from 1818 - 1842 of which
Fergalus/Farrell and Patrick
areno 4 & 5
A Farrel RORKE
married a Mary CARROLL and had a daughter Anne
christened 15Nov
1847 in Boyle RC
I have no
indications on where they lived. There are lots of RORKEs but
veryfew Farrells.
I have no other

Hi Roger,
Do investigate the
LDS Family History Centre. They are very helpful, I
havefound.I
omitted the film number for the Boyle RC Parish Records which is
989743 A small
charge may be made for the hire of the film. It all depends on
whether it is in
stock. We borrow the film for 3 months and it stays at
thelocal LDS
before being returned to a central loan place. Your system
may
bedifferent.The film is a photograph of the actual pages of the parish book and
is
forthe most part
written in Latin (as I described before) Parts of it are
sofaded that it is
difficult to decypher. But it is worth looking at.
I had started to
transcribe it but for Christmas was given 5 CDs of LDS
Vital Records and
I find that the Boyle records are there with sorting
programs to pick
out those of the same name or of the same place or
thosewith the same
parents , etc. etc.They are super but do not have all the parishes only a
selection of
England, Wales,
Scotland and Ireland.We are just lucky that Boyle is there.
Perhapsthere will
be more parishes to come later.
In the registers
written by the priest for the most part there are
godparents/ sponsors/witnesses
to the baptisms and marriages and
sometimesthe
townland is given but these extras are not on the CDs
It is also worth
remembering that baptisms were usually perfomed in the
house of the
family when the babe was a few days old (2or3) and that the
entry was made in
the parish book later ,I presume. Which may account
forwhat seems to
be some errors of parentage that I have found - correct
surname and
wife/mother but father's first name different. Perhaps they
wetthe baby's head
with strong water !!!!! - or maybe that
is reality !!!
I have been
collecting together those of the same family from these
records(the CDs
make it much easier to sort the records instead of
having towrite
everything down, page by page from the film and then collect
families)and of
all the James CRYANs in these records Michael CRYAN and Bridgit
FURYwere the only
pair of all possible combinations of your name selections.
I suggest that the
John CRYAN buried may be the youngest brother of
Michaeland the
Bridgit CRYAN who died aged 75 in 1852 is most likely to be
MIchael's mother
born in 1777 or an older unmarried sister. It is
unlikelyto be
Bridgit CRYAN nee FURY who would then have been 53 at the birth
of heryoungest
child in 1830. To have his first child in Nov 1816 Michael must
have been born
before 1797when he would have been 19or 20.
On the otherhand
as there are literally hundreds of CRYANs around at
thesetimes in this
place - Boyle - it may be coincidence that there are other
not-close-family
CRYANs in the same townland.Until again, good luck, Eve

[CRYAN-L] Hi there ... To: CRYAN-L@rootsweb.com
Yup, it's been
pretty quiet. I've got to get busy
typing again ... Istill
have stuff to post
from Kevin / Caoimhghin. I also may get
a chance to
get tothe library
this month to take another shot at Griffith's etc.
Do you remember,
many months ago, when I posted those excerpts from the
Irishnewspaper
here in Boston ('here in' = U.S.) about relatives looking for
otherlost
relatives? Is there any similar type
compilation there in
Australia?Since
you all have a similar situation where all but the natives are
fromsomewhere
else, I wonder what kind of sources you all have.
In case I do get
over to the library next week (assuming that Mother
Naturedoesn't dump
another foot or two of snow on us -- January can be SUCH
fun herein the
Great Lakes region), is there anything anyone would like me to
look
upparticularly (yes, I take requests)?
I'm going to look up the few
Crean/Cryans etc.
in Co. Mayo on Griffith's just to wrap that up, but
afterthat will
look-up whatever. Just email me ...Happy
New Year all, Leslie

Hi Bob, and other CRANEs
I have found the
following which may be of relevance to you. They look
to bechildren of
your Patrick Crane born about 1800 (take no notice of the
spelling,as it
varies from entry to entry, depending on who is writing
itdown and what
they hear)Bridgit CRAIN christened 20 March 1822 at Lochglin RC Co Roscommon
parents Patrick CRAIN and Mary BERNCatherine
CRAIN christened 21 Dec 1824 at Lochglin RC Co Roscommon parents Patrick CRAIN and Mary BEIRNE
It was the custom
to give the paternal grandfather's name to the eldest
sonso that the
eldest son of the eldest son of the eldest son all had the
samename. I
therefore suggest that the missing brother may haver been named
Patrick. The
following could be his children -
John CRANE
christened 16 April 1838 at Lochglynn RC Co Roscommon
parents Patrick CRANE and Atteracta RUSH
Mary CRANE
christened 19 Sept 1840 at Lochglynn RC Co Roscommon
parents Patrick CRANE and Atteracta RUSH
The records for
Lochglynn go from 1817 to 1863 but I have no way of
knowingwhat is
missing. I have not found any records for John or Martin who I
suspect were born
at about 1820 so I therefore suggest that the family
wereliving in
another parish until 1822I hope that this is helpfulYours Eve

Hi Bob,
Source of the
information is LDS Family History Centre
film number (FHL
number) 989753 (Lochglynn RC)
and covers the
dates 1817- 1835.
These films are
nearly all photographs of the original parish documents.
You will be able
to look at the film at your local LDS Family History
Centrewhere they
are very helpful.
On the original
film sponsors/ witnesses are usually also given but
theseare not on my
CDs
I am fortunate to
have been given for Christmas the recently published
LDSVital
Statistics for the British Isles.This set of 5 CDs have a small
selection of information
marriages and christenings and after 1864
NationalRegistry
information.There are several but not all of the parishes in
Sligo/Roscommon/Mayo
area with, joy of joys, a sorting program.
Feed in a name and
out come all the possibles. Some spelling variations
arelinked, some
are not, so it is as well to note which are linked and to
tryalso the
alternatives. This I did for you. I hope that it will cut down
thetime required
to read the original. However, I have found in reading the
original that
there are several difficulties. The ink is often faded and
does not show on
the film or the handwriting is ambiguous/difficult to
read,pages are
repeated or missed out........etc But it is still worth
looking,the CD
information providing a short cut.
Good luck , I hope
that you are able to make further progress. Eve

their grandparents

poker-work and
polished so that the background is dark wood and the
patternis of
intertwined flowers in paler shades. I also have an elaberate tray
done in the same
style with the initials MC intertwined. I was told that
this was made by
my grandfather for my grandmother Mary CRYAN. But who
couldhave taught
this John CRYAN? It is most likely to have been his father-
bornin Co Sligo.
Do any of you have
similar items or skills passed down? Could you write
about them? It
could well be a means of connecting families. Or it could
even awaken hidden
memories of something in the past.

enough to have been
there,and to have met Francis and Padrik Cryan
(forgive my
spelling) and had a wonderful visit and dinner......This
poem I am going to
print out,first came to my attention in about
1948,when I was
going through some of my grandfathers papers,pictures
etc..I`m sure this
was writen before that ,but I`m not sure when...The
author is Michael
Cryan........ Where hearts did yearn long and weary,
with cherished
love from days of yore,........ For
years had passed
without a meeting
of these fond hearts that loved so true,.....That now
are clasped in
each others arms, awaken passions fresh and new....... My
frame though
rough, now did tremble, like a delicate rose in a chilly
blast...When I
bent to kiss my wife and child, In passionate tears,
broke down at
last..
. Deep and sorrow
those joys were lost, when close I stood by fathers
side.... As I saw
his eyes bedimed with tears,he said, "My son,I can not
rise"........
My heart at once did cease to throb, I motionless did
stare....At that
weak and worn frame, that give up all its worldly
care,.. I grasped
that hand so frail and weak, that once was young and
strong,.... That
stroked the hair upon my brow, but alas those happy
days have
gone...The hand that toiled for many years, through all this
world of
care...And bore his burden like a man, while God his health did
spare.. But Oh!
That bitter parting, It seemed to hard to bear....When
God he called his
soul away, I called my brother near..... Brother John
stood by my side,
with bitter cries he said.."Oh God, have mercy on his
soul, Oh Mike,
poor Father`s dead,"..That ashen face lay still in death,
no more to cast a
smile.. His own dear brother closed his eyes,at the
end of lifes long
weary aisle... So now his soul may live
in peace,
with God in
Heaven,I Pray..For he done a Fathers duty and never shrank
away..... Lyle

[CRYAN-L] RE:Cregan To: CRYAN-L@rootsweb.com
My great
grandparents Catherine Cregan nee Fitton and James Cregan were
fromCounty
Limerick in Ireland although I have yet to find out exactly
where. Ihave someone in Ireland trying to find that
out for me. They had four
children Patrick
born in 1862 --Ellen (Nellie) born in 1870 also
Michael
andCatherine. They came to the United
States in 1892 and settled in
Brooklyn,New York.
I do not know if there is a family connection because I do
not knowif James
had siblings left in Ireland that would have married and had
children. I imagine however that there were as not too
many Irish
families inthose
days had only one child.

Although my
resources are limitied, I have very quickly come up with the
following which
should be of use to RuthK3834 as she wrote about James
CREGAN and
Catherine nee FITTON
Birth Mary CREGAN
- 31 March 1867- in Newcastle, Limerick, Ireland,
CivilRegistration
parents James CREGAN, Kate FITTON
FHL number 101154
Birth Michael
CREGAN - 28 Sept 1869 - in Newcastle, Co Limerick,
Ireland,
Civil Registration
parents James CREGAN, Catherine
FITTON
FHL Number 101199
I have no obvious
records for Bridget HOGAN and Michael CREGAN who were
having children at
about 1900. This Micheal CREGAN must have been born
before 1880 (which
wouls make him 20 in 1900) but it is probable that
he wasborn around
1870. I have 9 Michael CREGANs who were born between 1866
and1872 in Co
Limerick.6 are from Newcastle !

FALLIHEE
There are some
points that I would like to bring to your attention:-
1 I would have thought that Michael CREGAN
would have been older than
Bridget HOGAN so
that she would have been born nearer to 1880. I do not
haveany Limerick
records after about 1872 but I do have Bridget HOGANs
beforethat date
(this would make her at least 28 when she had her first child
)2 It would seem
possible(though not necessarily so) that the parents of
either Michael or
Bridget were John and Bridget - the names of their
firsttwo children.
Or perhaps one of the 4 grandparents was John and another
wasBridget. - it could help with searching for
their parents !
I hope that this
is helpful. Eve
