Hi there I find this very interesting.  I am a Descendant of William Daly 1799 Ballinasloe .  Interestingly I have done dna as also another descendant in that line and neither of us have Daly matches.  He is recorded as landing in South Africa at St Helena Bay in 1831(we find no record of exactly how)  We do know he is a naval surgeon and subsequently moves to Malmesbury in South Africa.  His qualification to practise here is challenged and he travels back to the UK to sort this out. He is eventually registered as an apothecary in South Africa.  He later becomes a justice of the peace/judge and dies in1866.  I have dna matches to his son's wife, who was a Krige.  Complete brick wall for me.

HI there,

I descend from William L"Amy Daly who is mentioned here as arrived in South Africa in 1831.  He was a surgeon .  He landed at St Helena Bay and became a Surgeon in Malmesbury .  The ordinance was changed and he could not practice as surgeon anymore.  He appealed the Governor and I think 1841 was granted licence as an Apothecary.  Eventually became a Judge  or Justice of the Peace and died In St Helena Bay.  What is interesting is that the name Hamilton L'Amy andRamsay are throughout this line,  He married a Barbara Croeser.  I am descended from his eldest Son who was Willem (William) Johannes Daly.  I do not know what boat he arrived on or anything about his parents to siblings.  His qualifications were apparently lost in one of his attempts to register in South Africa , as he returned to the United Kingdom.  My understanding is that he trained while in the Navy ????? not sure anyone has any information regarding his ancestors.  On his landing in South Africa is is registered as being from Ballinasloe Ireland.
