Title: DEANE / CONWAY
Post by: Ann W on Saturday 08 April 06 08:02 BST (UK): Hi there..

i am not sure where to look for this family, as there are no early census records.

this is what i have

Bartley DEANE B 17 AUG 1868 Bangor Co Mayo, Ireland.
Died 12 feb 1957 Geesala, ballina, co Mayo

married Barbara CONWAY c 1913, co Mayo
barbara was born about 1890 co mayo
she died in 24 april 1961 co mayo

Bartley parents were James DEANE and Cisly cecela SCANLAN M c 1867 co Mayo . bartley is the only child i know about

Barbara father was Michael CONWAY and ....................................
they had Barbara, patrick, martin, mary, michael, julie.

Bartley and Barbara
had - mary 1914, patrick 1915, james 1917, celina 1918, anne 1919, Bridge 1821..

Bridgie married Bernard MURTAGH - i think she could still be alive.. not sure about james -

there were some web sites i hadnt seen, so thank you... couldnt find anything, but have booked marked them, for use when i search other irish family members.

There really was not many DEANE'S at all, so i wonder where they came from?

So thanks again for your time,

Post by: Owenwee on Saturday 30 June 12 00:42 BST (UK): Hi Ann,

Family of Barbara Conway are parents Michael and mother Mary Rudddy married in 1872,her mother is living with them in the 1901 census in Kilboy,Kilcommon,Co Mayo. Michael Conway's father was Terence this is anotated beside his name in Census,you can look at Griffiths Valuation List of Kilcommon and see there was a Terence in Kilboy.

Bartley Deane his parents James Deane and Cecelia Scanlon this family is also in the same place Kilboy,they married in 1866,now Bartley is not in the 1901 census.The family shows James Deane father wife Bridget,and children. The children listed are of James Deane and Bridget Calvey,therefore Cecila Scanlon must have died and James remarried,in 1874. In 1911 Bartley is living with his father and family.

Hope this helps.

Post by: Ann W on Saturday 30 June 12 22:02 BST (UK): Thanks that was great help. , helped by showing me. (As I have not research Ireland for years, gave up,) that they have records,, thought they like to keep them secret lol

I looked at the census records 1901 and 11. , started doing my head. As in ten yr his age jumped 14 yr and she in ten yrs aged 20 yr. I wouldn't be happy with that

Need to find Irish BDM. Now.

Thanks again

Ann

Post by: Ruanesh on Friday 31 January 14 20:52 GMT (UK): Also, ages on census forms at that time did tend to vary wildly, but I believe that was people realised that by adjusting their ages (which would have been hard to prove at the time) people would qualify for pensions/ or allowances of some kind.
