Quealy (Stone masons)families from Kiladysert
Posted: Mon Jan 23, 2012 3:47 pm
Interested in any info someone might have about the following relatives from the parish of Kiladysert. Through this excellent website, I have been able to locate my Quealy(Quailey) family from the town of Clonkett. Michael(my GGGFather) and his brother Simon Quailey came over to the US in 1848 and 1850. They also had a uncle, Patrick Qualey and son John who settled in the Forest Lake,PA. Patrick and John's gravestone stated they were from the parish of Kiladysert as did Michael Quaileys gravestone.
I have just used your new option,Clare GMaps. Due to the fact that Michael was a stone mason(this is how he made his way up from Philadelphia and settled into Forest Lake, PA, by building stone walls for people along the way), I believe I have located a rock quarry in the town of Clonkett. So this is my question to the 'locals' here in the Kiladysert area. Is there a rock quarry in the town or near the town of Clonkett?
Information to verify my Quealy family are from Clonkett
-Tithe Appointments Michael and Simon Quineely, town of Clonkett,
-Tithe Appointments John King(Michael Quineely(Quailey) father in law) partners with Thomas and Timothy Queely, Town of Clonkett
-Griffiths Evaluation George Quailey (my GGGFather Michael Quailey's youngest son's name was George), Town of Clonkett
1901 Census George Qualey,
- Kane family that Quaileys married into while living in Forest Lake, PA, the Kanes were from the parish of Kiladysert. This is well documented by many family trees from the Susquehanna County, PA area. Also, there was another Kane family that settled in Forest Lake, PA and they were from the parish next door to Kiladysert, the parish of Kilfiddane.
-Thomas Fury family were from the parish of Kiladysert, they to settled in Forest Lake, PA
Thank you all who read this. I hope to make some connections. Also if you have the chance, please take a look at my recent topic about my Quinlivan family from county Clare.
Thanks!
