Hi Karen,

I have been working on the O'Malley Mayo Clan Tree on Ancestry.com and came across a number of family trees relating to O'Malleys in Winnipeg and other parts of Western Canada. They all descend from a couple John O'Malley and Eleanor Jameson, who had 8 children: William, Jane-Sarah, Catherine-Martha, Eleanor-Mary, Robert-George, Creighton, John-Henry and Samuel-Robinson. Your post above obviously refers to the same people. however, I have not been able to discover anything about the custody case so far. Have you any further informatuion on it? 

My reason for doing this is that I am involved in the O'Malley Project on Family Tree DNA ( www.ftdna.com ). I am looking for male O'Malleys from this family group who would be interested in doing a Y-DNA test to help establish the DNA signatures of the various lines of Mayo O'Malleys. If you could pass this on to any of your siblings, cousins, etc who's like to find out more, I'd particularly appreciate it. I can be reached on brendan.omaley@markree.ie 

Regards, Brendan
