Searching for information concerning Doulaghty/Delahanty, Torpey in Clare

I am a third generation American descended, I am told,from James Delahanty, Patrick Delahanty, Thaddeus Dolohanty, Anne Torpey and Brigid MacNamara, all of whom came from County Clare in the middle of the 1800's. I would appreciate any information any of you have concerning any of them.

Dear Delahanty-Graney:

Thank you for your post to the Ireland Reaching Out message board.  We have some information for you which we will be glad to share.  You can also access quite a bit of information on the Clare Library website at the following link:  http://www.clarelibrary.ie/eolas/coclare/genealogy/genealog.htm

In the meantime, I have had a look at the transcriptions of the Tulla baptism and marriage registers which are available online as digitised scans at:

As well as the transcriiptions on the Clare Library website at this link:  http://www.clarelibrary.ie/eolas/coclare/genealogy/don_tran/bmd/rc_baptism_records_tulla.htm

Hi Delahanty-Graney :)

I've been looking for information about my surname, Torpey, which is why your post caught my attention.

Are you related to any Torpey? I ask because I've been trying to find out how my surname got to Mexico where I am from. If you are related to any Torpey or know if a Torpey came to Mexico, would you let me know? :) 

Thanks a lot! 

Best wishes

Ale

Hi Alejandra:

This is the possibility that I thought as I'm in Tulla where there were several Torpey families.  If Delahanty-Graney has any further information, please feel free to share.  

All the best,

 

Jane
