Hi All, Sorry I only seen the information put on this thread over the last year now. Ok I might be able to shed some light on a few people mentioned here, My great grandfather was William Deering ( I don`t have his DOB to hand but its est B1872- D1927). William joined the British army in 1890 I have his Attestation form to hand here.He states his brother was James Deering mentions he is also serving in the BA could be Dublin Fusilers ?, William also states his father is also called William Deering of 15 Coombe Dublin.My Great granmother Williams wife was Bridget O`Neill. She is the Bridget Deering here in Chamber St in the 1901 census. William was fighting in the Boer War in 1901, he later rejoined the British army in 1915 & fought in France.

My Granfather was his son William Deering (1900-1968), mentioned on this thread also is a Christopher Deering (27/12/07-24/10/42) that married a Mary Jane Cush, Christopher was Williams brother , he died in the battle of El Alamein. The family has always said we are from Baltinglass Co Wicklow. Also of note William Deering 1900-1968 also served in the National Army during the Civil war was a sergeant in the Dublin Guard I have his records but he is missing from the army census !

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.

Just want to say I should have looked up my family tree earlier in life, my dad is Isaac Deering born 1925 in Dublin, my Uncle Jimmy was a founding member of the Crumlin United football club. Unfortunately both have passed away.

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

It's been quite a while since I've looked at this thread, but I'm delighted to see the additional  information that has been added - many, many thanks to everyone :)

Adam, I've sent you a PM - would love to see some photos if possible.  I have very few, but I'm happy to send the ones I've got if you'd like them (same goes for any other posters - just drop me a message).

DeeringWicklow - yes I have a list of his medals, but the medals themselves were, I believe, sold by my grandad sometime in the 1970s.  I'm not sure if it would be possible to get copies, but it might be worth investigating

Thanks again everyone :)

Mark, I'm hoping you'll see this  - I've tried replying to your emails (thank you   ;D) but unable to reach you.  I've sent a PM through this site.  Hope all is well!

Hi,
We are also descendants of Bridget Deering who married John Lyons both originally from Baltinglass. They were married in Blackrock. Their marriage cert states that her father was  James Deery.  However, her census record for 1901 states that she was born in Donegal.  Her father was a coachman and they lived at 20 Lr. Georges Street, Dun Laoire.  From there, they moved to York Street in the Liberties.  Does this sound familiar to anyone? Its kind of confusing to me.
