Anthony CONROY QUEEN'S Co

Hi

 

I think we may be looking for the same Anthony Conroy.

Our Anthony Conroy Married Annie Cavanagh in 1890. He was born 1856 and Died in 1942, Buried at taita Cemetry,

 

They have 5 Children that we know of

Mary Conroy

Winifred Ann Conroy 1895

Anthoney Patrick Conroy 1895

Francis Edward Eden 1901

ALbert Joseph George COnroy 1904

We are looking at how he arried in NZ and found that an anthony arrived in 1874 on board the conflict,

 

Anthony Conroy is my partners Great Grandfather, and Francis Edward Eden being his grandfather

 

Is this the same Anthoney conroy you are looking for as would love to swap any information

 

Thanks Julie

 

Thanks

Hi Julie

Yes we have the same man.  My grandfather is Francis Edward Eden.  His daughter, Frances (nee: conroy) Coyne is my mother.  

Our family is in Lower Hutt, where the Taita cemetery is based.

 

Cool.

Hi

 

I started looking into the conroy family history for my partner  Paul, his father is Tony Conroy ( Anthony). So you and Paul will be Cousins.

 

I did notice that Anthony Conroy must have had an incorrect age on the ships manifest when he arrived in NZ. he was listed as 21 years old in 1874, Which would have made his birth in 1853, They used to do that alot back in the day. it also stated that he had a promisery note of 14 pound 10 pence, so he was goverment assisted over on the Conflict and owed that money back to the government.

 

have you a copy of Anthoney marriage and death cert, We would ike to get a copy if possible. And are you able to advise where at taita cemetry they are. We went there this morning and had a wonder around. The only Conroy we found was Anthony JOhn Patrick Conroy and his wife, which was Francis Edward Eden brother
