    1. [MAYO] CORR & DALY
    2. Dear Listers / Subscribers, please accept my apologies, if I have already bored you with this info from other lists. I am currently researching my own family (CORR), and would of course greatly appreciate any helpful info .... My Grandfather George Joseph CORR was born 1861 in Dromard, in the parish of Drumlish, Co Longford of George CORR - a farmer from Co. Leitrim He had several brothers Phillip (1859), John (1862) and Charles (1865) who married a Bridget Masterson of Leggah, Co Longford, and settled in Corglass, Co. Longford. There are also stories of a Joseph and a sister, Nora both of whom emigrated or absconded to America - New York, I guess. He married my grandmother Teresa DALY on the 27th September 1897 in the RC Chapel of Aughamore in the District of Kilkelly, Union of Swineford in the County of Mayo. Teresa was the daughter of John DALY and Bridget (Loughna, I believe), and was born in Keadue, Peyton (near the town of BOYLE) in Co. Roscommon. I am not totally sure when she was born, I think around 1875-78. She died 22nd June, 1906 and is buried in Knock Cemetery, Co Mayo. It is very difficult to actually make out her age on her gravestone, as it was damaged and has been repaired - but it looks like she was in her (late) twenties when she died. Her daughter, my aunt, Theresa Laydon nee CORR is buried at Kiltimagh Cemetery, interred by her uncle Bishop DALY. The other brothers also married, I believe, in this same church & parish; Phillip to a Theresa Loughna 9th Sept 1891, and his brother John to Jane Waldron in 1909. John & Jane Waldron made their home in Aghamore, whilst Phillip & Theresa lived in Edenpark, near Knock. John & Jane, together with my uncle John, James known as Jack, CORR are all buried at Aghamore. Philip & Theresa are buried, I believe, in Castlebar. My grandfather served his full 21 years in the British Army (Royal Artillery) and was discharged to pension in 1904, and went to live with his in-laws the DALYs in Keadue (Keadew), near Boyle in Co. Roscommon. What happened to both sets of my grandparents, the Corrs and the Dalys, I do not know. I would be most grateful, and relieved, if someone could shed some further light on this quest. many thanks Niall Corr * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * This message is confidential.
