Yes Ireland in February, it's the only time I could go!  I'm used to the cold during those months anyway!  It gets very cold and snowy here.  I do plan on driving..... driving on the "wrong" side of the road will be quite the adventure! 

I would love to see it!  Thank you much.

Hi

Yes, you're correct about the misspelling of the street name.  It should be Analore St.  You'll find an old pic of it here.

Mary Whyte
Alnore Street
Clones, Ireland.

I believe they spelled the name of the street wrong.


Oh this is lovely, thank you!  I am looking forward to my visit to Clones In February !

A side note.  A lot of the Allens had lived in the glasgow area and worked in the mines there.

Elizabeth had lived in Scotland with her husband James Allen.  She had two children in the glasgow area and then she had my grandfather in Clones in 1923.

She, along with her children immigrated to the states in 1930 out of Glasgow.  Ship manifest has her mothers information as nearest relative.

Mary Whyte
Alnore Street
Clones, Ireland.

I believe they spelled the name of the street wrong.

Off the boat, they lived in Madison New Jersey.

Hello, thank you for your reply!  I'm not sure what my original message was but Elizabeth is my great grandmother.  Do you any information on them?  I have photos of her and her father.  Please give me any info you can as Im trying to research that part of the family now.  Thank you much!

Glamorganshire / Re: Irish immigrants to Wales, 1800s

Can ANYONE help me out here.  I have reason to believe some of my family went to Wales.  James, John or Catherine Allen, maybe spelled Allan.  I dont know what direction to go to.

Hey everyone, I recently started my family research.  It's quite confusing and frustrating!
I'm trying to find Whytes in Clones.  This is all the info I have for now.  If anyone could steer me in the right direction I would greatly appreciate it.   I am planning a trip to Ireland in Feb, I'm hoping to find some family there.

My great mother Elizabeth Whyte was born 8, July 1893 in clones

Her mothers name was Mary Whyte, I dont have a birth date for her,  but she did live on Alnore Street in Clones.

Elizabeth Whyte married James Allen (whose parents were James Allen and Catherine Mckenna)

Had three child , (*) 1923 in clones
                          (*) 1922 in Blantyre, Scotland
                          (*) 1920 in Blantyre, Scotland.

Last permeant address was in Hamilton, Scotland

They sailed out of Glasgow 19, September 1930 on the ship Cameronia.

If this is not the proper place to ask this, please let me know, as I do not want to offend.  Thank you!

(*) Moderator's Comment: recent details removed as these children might still be alive

opps was I not supposed to put names?  William is my grandfather, he is in fact dead.  And so are the others.
