Would love to know more about them as I know I have French blood -- feel it!!!

 :)This is most interesting and fantastic for the person trying to work back to the Huguenots. I only started today to look into this for our side of the family.
 My brother and I are extremely Francophiles and the only ones from all our cousins to be like that so we think there may be something from the Delaney side which I think came from Delauney or Delaunay.
I have often seen signs in Normandy and northern France for Delaunay and often wondered.
If anyone has information about Delaunays or Delauneys in the Portaoise area, back to the Huguenots and related to Delaneys, I would love to hear back! Great grandfather was John from Lough Teague (Teagh?) area but that is all I know - his son Patrick Joseph went to Belfast and died up there.
Thanks.

Laois (Queens) / Delaney connections to French Huguenots - Delaunays or Delauneys - help!

Hi - does anyone know anything about French connections to the Delaneys of Port Laoise?
I know the Huguenots came to Ireland from France via Cork and Waterford and the names were Delaunay, Delauney and De l'Aunaie.
My Grandfather was Patrick Joseph Delaney (died Belfast possibly 1930's?)and his father was John from the Lough Teague(Teagh?) area.
Apparently the Delaunay name became Delaney but I would love to know more. I do know the Huguenots were weavers and came over from Poitou and Charentes and La Rochelle areas ---
Somewhere I saw that some came to Spittalfields in London in the 1650- 1750 era -- help!!
Thanks - I can't get over to Portlaoise as am miles away in the north of Scotland but would be very grateful for information if anyone has some!
Thanks.
