John or Anthony McNealy/Connolly/Gildea

MayoAghagower (Mayo)

A long shot but looking for family of Anthony McNealy and Bridget Gildea/Kilday. Found an entry for son John born 1830 to Anthony and Bridget Gildea in Aughagower. Family name should be McNealy/Connolly/McAnally or variatioins thereof. Name changes back and forth as time goes on. Anthony born about 1804; Bridget about 1811. Children John, Anthony, Margaret, Winifred (Fanny), Mary born between 1830-1849. Family definitely located in Edinburgh Scotland in1851 census. John and Anthony emigrated to Boston; girls married and remained in Scotland. Married names Gordon, Carlton, Shanley. I expect to be visiting your area later this summer. Any help or suggestions would be appreciated. Jack McNealy

Welcome to Ireland Reaching Out!

I checked on Roots Ireland and there were no McNealy baptismal records in Aughagower in the 1830-1849 period.Here is a link to the parish register http://registers.nli.ie/parishes/1037   There is a gap between 1836-1842. I would review the register and see if you can find any records under some of the different surnames.
