Anne Langan baptised 1832, Balyna, Co Kildare
I would appreciate any help available in verifyingdetails re my great-greatgrandmother Anne Langan whomarried Michael Cleary (see under separate listing)
Details onMarriage Certificate(Liverpool UK, 3rd May, 1857)
Michael Clary b Kildare Father Thomas Clary (note spelling difference)
Anne Langan b Kildare Father Patrick Langan
Both signed with a cross Witnesses Patrick McDonaghue of Liverpool. Elizabeth McDonoghue of Liverpool
The following details from Find My Past /Record transcription : Ireland Catholic Parish Baptisms might relate to"my" Anne Langan & her family.I couldn't find any other Anne Langan b Co Kildare in the early 1830s with Patrick/Patt as her father....
All the Baptisms were at Balyna / alternative parish name JohnstownDiocese Kildare and Leighlin, Co Kildare
James 27 Dec, 1819 father Patt Langan mother B Aspel
Eliz/Elizabeth 11 Oct, 1821 father John Langan- not Patt?? Mother Bid Aspel
Brid 14 Jan, 1824 father Patt Langan mother B Aspel
Mara 11 Feb, 1826 father Patt Langan mother Bed Aspel
Anne26 Feb, 1832 (my gggrandmother???)father Patt Langan mother Bed Aspel
Theres a gap between Mara 1826 and Anne 1832.perhaps there were other children not listed?
According to Shipping Records:
Michael & Anne Clearymigrated to Victoria, Australia, arrived August 11th, 1857 on The Eastern Star
Departure Port: Liverpool Michael age given as 25 & Anne as 22 Michael listed as a Carpenter
Another passenger was John Cleary age 26, unmarried Labourer - I dont know if he was related to Michael
Anne's age doesn'tmatch the other records - she would have been 25 yeras oldby April 1857
The next record I have is the Birth Certificate of their second child in New Town (later called Beechworth) Victoria, Australia
The names of their children & their birthdates - according to other records
Elizabeth (my great-grandmother) b 1857 near Melbourne
Bridget 1859
Thomas 1861
James 1862
Mary Ann 1864
William 1865
James Patrick 1869
Amy Francis 1871
Ada Majella 1877 there may also be a John Joseph who died before 1889.I cant verify him as Michael & Annes son yet
Death Certificate shows that Anne died 19/02/1889 Echuca, Vic., Australia
As Ive been unable to find any other Michael Cleary /Anne Langan b early 1830s in Co Kildare & on the balance of probabilities /population of Co Kildare at this time, could these be my gggrandparents? Also, I checked a map and it shows that Carbury and Dunforth and Balyna are pretty close, so perhaps that makes all the above more likely?
Anyway, thats about all I have at the moment and I would love to verify the maybes and perhaps add more information too.
Thanks,
Maureen
