Hi Fiona,
Thanks so much for the information, it has been extremely helpful!

Jane (Jennie) Darcy married William Francis Heron (Herron) on October 7, 1912 in Providence, RI. They had 3 children: William Herron, Katherine Herron, and Gladys Herron. Jane passed away on December 10, 1957. I hope this is somewhat helpful!

Best,
Stephanie

Hi,
I am very very new to all of this! I am frantically searching for my Great Grandmothers information, Jane Darcy of Tulsk, Roscommon, daughter of William and Catherine (McCarmick) Darcy. Would you be willing to share some of the Darcy information that you have from the family history? Jane immigrated to the US and married William Herron (Heron). They resided in Providence RI and had three children, William, Gladys, and Catherine.

I am visiting Roscommon Ireland in May and would be thrilled to be able to visit their homestead and graves. If you have any information that you can share I would be ever so appreciative! Thank you in advance!


We do seem to have a connection! My information comes from a Darcy family history written by a 2nd cousin (I think!) in the 1980s or 90s sometime. It was certainly pre-computer data-bases for family history.
Very happy to share more information. Is there a way I can provide my email address 'off-line'?
Yes all bar Mary, Francis' 1st child were born in Australia. My grandmother, Anna was born in Ballarat  in 1880. I think about 5 of the 10 children died in early 20s of TB.
As I have quite a bit of information re the Darcys, my hope is to learn more about the McCormacks. I think Honora's (Francis' wife) parents were Patrick and Margaret, and they had several daughters.
Francis' mother, Julia McCormack, I know nothing of her family. As she married Martin in 1829, it is going back a bit!
