Dalys Flynns and Burns of Mungret and Crecora area
my great grandfather was Michael Daly who emigrated with his sister Bridget and friend Mary Flynn from Mungret around 1878/9. Michael andMary Flynn eventually married and settled in Winton New Zealand and had around 11 children. I have since travelled to Mungret and found Michaels parents and grandparents in the old Abbey cemetery. Michael Daly Snr and Catherine Burns and Michaels parents Anna ? And Connor Daly. Also the grave of Michaels brothers Cornelious and John Daly. John took over the family tenanted farm at Dooradoyle and was in the census 1911 with his 2 daughters and son Michael. This last Michael is also buried in the grave at Mungret in 1949 with his wife Hellene (who I believe was Helene Monahan). Michaels sisters are also buried here, Anne Wall who died in childbirth and Mary Kate who married Patrick McCormack and died in 1953.
Cornelius his uncle had 1 child Margaret Daly who like her parents Cornelious and Bridget, was a National schools teacher in Crecora though in the 1911 census her parents were retired and she was unemployed. Her parents were living at Eden Villas Crecora before they died in 1924 and 1926. Cornelius and John and my great grandfather also had 2 other sisters Catherine and Ann and another younger brother Patrick Daly that I have not been able to trace their whereabouts. It is possible they emigrated to America but I have no knowledge of that. I would really like to know if there are any living descendants of thesefamilies living in Ireland,America or elsewhere. Or any of Mary Flynns family or my great great grandparents Michael Daly and Catherine Burns siblings descendants.
