Hi,

Looking for any info regarding the Delany family below:

According to rootsireland Hugh Delany (spelt as Dillany in 1821 Athenry census) was living at 23 North Gate St in Athenry. A later Griffiths Evaluation record has him living on Chapel Lane. In 1821 he was a 40 yr old thatcher. Wife was Rose (aged 30) and they had three daughters - Honor (aged 10), Mary (aged 6) and Bridget (under 1). My g.g.grandfather, Patrick, was born in 1828 and from a prayer that Patrick wrote it appears that there was at least one other sister, Patty? (Patricia?).

Patrick joined the army and a lot is known about his life after leaving Ireland but very little is known about his parents and siblings or what happened to them.

Would love to hear anything about the family (nuclear or extended).

Thanks!
