Kildare / Re: HYLAND from Suncroft
« on: Saturday 30 July 22 22:25 BST (UK)  »
Hi,
I just moved into a house that was built by Richard Conlan on the land of his uncle, Edward Conlan, who had left it to him in his will. This Richard was born in Brownstown. I’m trying to trace the history of the house. Edward was a JP who was involved in the Land Acts, leading the local tenants to resist paying exorbitant rents to absentee landlords. Apparently his funeral was one of the biggest ever in the Curragh. Richard built the house around 1910 and I have a newspaper article saying he sold it in 1927. Does anyone know who might have bought it from him? Who was the architect? Btw this Dick was the son of Richard and Ann Jane Hyland. Where did he go after he sold the house?

I guess my question to you or anyone reading this, is if any of you know of this Bridget Deering/Deery? How was she married in Blackrock, state that she was born in Donegal, and live in the Liberties? Also, given that the Lyons were house painters since the early 1800's and I see there is a James Deery who was a house painter, could they be related since apprenticeships were passed through families?
Its all a mystery, and I get so frustrated when I hit a road block.. so I'd appreciate any help!

Yes these are my third great grandparents... Bridget is the Bridget Deering, or Deery from Blackrock who married John Lyons 12 February 1865. Her father was James Deery and his father was William Lyons.
In 1901, my second great grandparents lived in Cuffe Street.  I thought that was all the Liberties..

By 1911, they had moved to the Liberties and Bridget and John had died.

Hi,
We are also descendants of Bridget Deering who married John Lyons both originally from Baltinglass. They were married in Blackrock. Their marriage cert states that her father was  James Deery.  However, her census record for 1901 states that she was born in Donegal.  Her father was a coachman and they lived at 20 Lr. Georges Street, Dun Laoire.  From there, they moved to York Street in the Liberties.  Does this sound familiar to anyone? Its kind of confusing to me.
