Healy and Greany Families

WaterfordDungarvan (Waterford)

Searching for information on John Healy and Margaret Greany married 28 Feb 1868 Dungarvan, County Waterford. Both had fathers named Thomas. I am hoping to identify their siblings and parents.

Have identified some possible family groupings.Any ideas appreciated!

Thank you!

Pamela White Shea

P.S. These are their children.All but Thomas emigrated to the New York and Connecticut area in theUS. I believe I have most of their records but am listing them for informational purposes.

Welcome to Ireland Reaching Out!

I looked at Roots Ireland and below is the likely baptismal record for Margaret. She had a brother John 1834 who likely died young since there was another John in 1836 and a Brigid in 1842. 

There were no John Healy baptismal records in Dungarvan with father Thomas but many John Healys in Waterford. Was there a townland for him on the marriage record? He may have been from a different parish.

You may want to get a short-term subscription to Roots to aid in your research.

Since the marriage was in 1868, there should be a related civil marriage record. Below is a transcript of that civil record.
