Hi ,
I was wondering if anyone can help please ? I am still trying to find my 5GGF
My 4GGF John CLONEY ( B 1812 in Portrushen , D 1880 in Staffordshire UK ) .
He married Winfred KENNEDY (B 1811 in Tynock, Kiltegan, Wicklow, Ireland , D 1890 in Staffs , Eng , UK ) in 1837 and had 2 children in Ireland before moving to Staffordshire in the 1850s and having a 3rd child . I'm assuming they came over because of the potato famine but Im not sure .
Anyway my brick wall come here ; I have found who I think was John CLONEYs father but Im not sure . I think it was Michael CLONEY ( B 1773 in Rathvilly , D 1851 in Canada ) . The reason why I think this is because on John Cloneys and Winifred's marriage banns it mentions a name Hanna Curtis who I think is John's sister .
Anyone else think this or am I barking up the wrong tree ?
