Sandy, I think that the Clancy's you have woud be maybe a generation earlier than my Sheedy/ Clancy connections.   You might look at the names of the children at the Lack School which is posted on the Clare Library website.  There are Sheedy's and Clancy's there.  Since Clancy married into my Sheedy's family, I am not researching them.  Too much for a non professional to bother with, but if I can help you, I am glad to do so.   If you do find a connection, please let me know.  My Sheedy's were in Lisnafaha and if I knew, I do not remember, but "my" Clancy connection must have lived close by as per the school and the marriage.   BTW, Sandy, my Mary Sheedy went to live in WI.  Her uncle, Michael Sheedy and his wife already lived there.  Mary married Owen Hartt.  I visited there as a small child and I remember asking why a perfectly good big barn for dairy cows was unused.  I think Mary and Owen were dead by then.  So many relatives that it made my head spin and I did not know who they really were, as I was not told.  Just that they were relatives.   Alanna --- On Sat, 3/19/11, Ciszewski <[email protected]> wrote:

Alanna, Thank you. I did find some of my family in the Lack School records. The were from Glencanane or Glenconaun Beg as it was called then. So far, though, no connection to the Sheedy family. But you never know, maybe someday I'll find a connection! Do you remember what part of Wisconsin Mary Sheedy was in? I remember seeing the Sheedy name in Stevens Point, Wis but don't recall the name Hart.

Sandy, I am pulling a blank on the city.  Evidently, they were in more than one location.  Beaver Dam was one location.  Dodge Co is a location. Fall River is another name.  I may be wrong about these names.  My computer records have been down for a long time, so I have to just use my head.   Owen Hartt was originally Hart, my father said, but he wanted to be different and changed it to Hartt.   Michael Sheedy was Mary's uncle.  He came there about the mid 1860's.   If I remember correctly, Mary had three children.  One son died young?  I think one was John and he had some children.  They did not write to my father that I can remember seeing any letters posted to him from there and none were there when he died.   A step daughter of Dan Sheedy, Mary's brother, wrote to my father.  I was able to read a few when my father was alive and just only two were found when he died.  That is where I found information.  We also visited uncle Dan after visiting Mary's family.  He was in ND.   See all these people are now long dead as far as I know.  These people were all so much older than I, as my parents were not young when they had me. Dan and Mary had a brother John who was suppose to be in the Chicago area and went to his sister Mary's wedding.  Too many John Sheedy's in Chicago and all I'd have would be his name, birth location, and maybe age and even that is not enough.  Someone posted to me about another brother in MA, Thomas.  I already knew of Michael and Patrick Joseph in Philly.  I found a picture of a youngish [cannot remember his first name right now, Martin?] Sheedy.  I looked and looked for a connection thinking he might be alive.  Nope, a child of Michael in Philly and long dead!!!   I think I said that my Clancy's had an ancestor named Patrick.   Alanna --- On Sat, 3/19/11, Ciszewski <[email protected]> wrote: Alanna,  Thank you.  I did find some of my family in the Lack School records.  The were from Glencanane or Glenconaun Beg as it was called then.
