Hi Tdeer, I see Paullywolly and Adeering seem to have researched your side of the family fully.

Thanks a lot Dathi. You guys do great work and keep it up. It takes a while to sort things out but this info will end up on quite a few computers.

Yes Gary, William was born in 1822 and died 1891 of a heart attack, Georges Quay...Age 69? He married Anne Gore in 1852. William was a Widower in 1879..10 Wards Hill..when he married Sara Carter. It's annoying the bad press these soldiers got even though they put their lives on the line by fighting the enemy before he landed here. I'll have to dig out some old certificates when I get back. Anyway, a relation of yours Jimmy Deering single handedly set up Crumlin United for the young Brian Kerrs, Robbie Keanes and many more great young soccer players. I'm sure you saw it all on the internet and maybe the faces of some distant relations in the Hub. His brother Issac was an Oramental Plasterer working in the main churches here. When he moved to Chicago he done voluntary work in a few Churches in Chicago. The Bishop mentioned all this and more at his funeral. I'm moving around for a week and may not be near a computer.

Hi Gary, Just over and see Christopher Deering was on some list or other. He always felt he was treated badly by the Irish State and served at sea until 1954. In one instance his Ship was blown up in Narvic Sound in 1940. Seven of them managed to swim ashore (Irish Press Dec 1940) including Tom Dixon from Towensend Street. They had to make their way over snowy mountains to Sweden without help from anyone....MancDeer
