Trying to help a friend. His rellie is found in 1880 census New York 22 from Ireland. She lived at the Buckingham Hotel as a chambermaid. Family lore says she is from Killarney. In searching 1901 and 1911 census as well as the Griffith's the name is a rare. None in census and only 4 in all of Ire in Griffith's. I searched as Deheny/Deheney/Dahany. Anyone have knowledge of this name. I keep wondering if it should be Delaney. Joan
In all probability it is Den(n)ehy - a name definitely found in County Kerry. Bill Fahy www.westcorkgenealogy.com
Could it be Doheny?
