Hi Sharon
Ellen L Clacy nee Von Sturmer, is a distant relation of mine, she has lead a colourful life. Her daughter Ellen Clacy married 5 june 1854 to  Charles Berry Clacy . Charles B Clacy was born 1819 Reading Berkshire England.  d 23 August 1882 Boundary Hotel , Emerald Hill, Victoria. Death reg. no. 8530
Lillian Clacy nee Earle b1838 Middlesex, London England m 1859 d 19 August 1907 St. Kilda Victoria

He is buried with Lillian Clacy nee Earle in the St. kilda Cemetery compartment c grave no 1704, I have a photo of grave, there is no headstone or marker just the metal plaque with grave number.
Charles B Clacy father John Clacy b abt 1784 m ?d ?
mother Mary Ann Berry b1785, Hamburg,Wiltshire, England. m? d?
Lillian Clacy was Hotel Proprieter of the
Queens Arm Hotel High Street St. Kilda 1887
Newmarket Hotel 36 Inkerman Street St. Kilda 1888 - 1889, 1892 - 1894

CONFECTIONER
133 Grey St. St. Kilda

Ellen L Clacy often mentions that she was widowed dont believe this to be true that she was widowed I believe it suited her life style to be rid of husbands. there is a story that the first husband who she was pregnant to before coming to Australia with her brother absconded, as far as can tell never divorced and as far as i can tell never divorced Charles Berry Clacy and he went on and remarried to Lillian Earle. you just have to love a good mystery.
my grand father Richard Charles Ryan married Edith Florence Clacy, Ellen Clacy 1/2 sister.
just for interest Clacy is french as has something to do with Church bell ringers in France.

have not been able to find any information, about her name, if she became a Ryan or not. there was some information on Trove about Thomas John  Ryan, mentioned 2 children one aged 14 and one aged 12 would have been good info except they had the 14 year old as a boy and the 12 year old as a girl.
Thomas John Ryan married Mary Garvin and had one more child Thomas Ryan b 5 April 1894.
have found Thomas Ryan's grand children, and have spoken to them but at this point have very little information on either Thomas John or his son Thomas. They did not even know about Maggie. My next search will be adoption records
