Dr. Fleury mentioned above is Dr Kieran Fleury. He married Bridgid Lucy Begley in Limerick in 1906. Pvt William mentioned above was his brother. Dr Fleury died in 1952. He and Bridid Begley had 4 children. Kieran died 1925, Maria Monica, Una (mentioned above died in 1963) and Muriel Josephine. They are a branch of my family tree....Bridgid aka Bedelia was a 1st cousin of my greatgrandmother. I think there was another brother to Dr Fleury, JJ Fleury who was possibly a vet. They were all Catholics. Dr Fleury died 12 Jan 1952 and is buried in Clonoghill.

For what it's worth, there are two families of Fleury still resident in the parish of my birth near Birr - both catholic (one family included a catholic priest, and several nuns).

You won't find them in those phonebook, I'm afraid but there are other Fleury families in Offaly and other parts of Ireland.
