These would be my gggrandparents and I am looking for any information or lead that I could follow. You can reach me at mary.gallus@roadrunner.com.

I have traced my ancestry to a Patrick McAnaney who came to America, via the Mayflower (ship) arriving in Philadephia, PA in 1852. He served in the US CIvil War. Somehow the spelling of the name changed. My granfather's name was spelled as McNeeney and he lived in Huntley Il. In my great grandfather's obit it stated that he was born in County Monaghan in Ireland about 1836, any threads of info would be greatly appreciated.

At the turn of the 20th century Daniel McAnnany left Ontario and settled in Baudette, Lake of the Woods Co., MN. He has descendants living from Minnesota to Oregon and Washington. Do you have any idea in which county in Ireland the McAnnany family lived before coming to the US? Thank you.

I just learn another variant of McAnany/McAnaney that I had't seen before. Go to surname McNANY/McNANEY. Seems to be some people from Ireland with input.

I am hoping to find a McAnaney family that migrated from somewhere in ireland to somewhere in Massachusetts.
Needle you say? You are right. Have fun and don't fall out of the tree.

The Family Name McAnaney originates in the area of Oriel which now takes in north County Monaghan and south Tyrone and Fermanagh. The tow of Clones is the hearth land of the clan . The Name McAnaney is foundmainly in this area but branches can also be found in Derry ,Dublin , Cork and my one in Mullingar. The Name James is very common along with John and Bernard.

Re: looking for james mcananey ancestors

GHFAM — 2008-12-05 20:41:00Z

The James McAnaney I am looking for was only in PA for a brief time. He did have a son, John, but they all moved to Wooster, OH by mid 1840's. Jame's oldest child, Hugh, was the only child born in Ireland. So I don't think we are looking for the same family. Any other info I can help you with let me know.

Over the past few years, have you been able to connect your ancestors with any that came to US earlier. The McAnany family I am researching stayed in New York throughout the census years, but they must be related because the same names are repeated. My Phillip was married to a Ellen and had Lucy, Agnes, Bessie, John, Edward, Rose, Phillip Jr, and Vera. They were located in Westchester and Bronx from 1870-1930.

Re: McANANY, James m. Sarah McCULPHA

rorimer — 2006-05-31 04:49:49Z

Mary Philomena McAneny (that's what we have in our family records) was my great grandmother. Her first husband, my great grandfather, was John Joseph Curran, his father was Edward. Mary & John Curran married on 11-25-1883 at St. Rose's Church, San Francisco. John and Mary had one child, Edward James Curran (my grandfather) born 9-16-1884. John Joseph Curran died when his son was just 8 months old, on April 25, 1885.

His mother, Mary Philomena McAneny Curran married again, Louis Francis Javete but it wasn't between the dates you show of 1880-1885. We do not know the date. Mary & John Curran married on 25 Nov 1883 at St. Rose's Church, San Francisco.

How do you fit into this family? We have searched and searched!

McANANY, James m. Sarah McCULPHA

2005-09-03 21:23:38Z

James McAnany (or possible varients) m. Sarah McCulpha they were both born in Ireland I believe.
Their daughter Mary Philomena McAnany(or variant) was born 28 April 1856 somewhere in the state of Massachusetts.

Mary McAnany ended up on the coast of California in the east bay area of San Francisco in the city of Berkeley, Alameda County.
Mary died in San Franciso in 1926 and her remains are buried in St. Mary's Cemetery in Oakland, Alameda County, California.
She married Louis Francis Javette date, place unknown except it was in California and between 1880-1885. He was her second husband.
Her first husband was Ed. Curran and they had a son possibily also named Ed.
Anyone have information on this family (families)

I believe Anna or Annie Brennan was the sister of my Great Grandmother. Her name was Sarah Brennan, a daughter of Thomas and Bridget (maiden name unknown) Brennan. These Brennans had daughters only. Thomas and his wife came from either the Parish of Doonane, County Queens or North County Kilkenny from the anthracite coal producing area of Ireland before 1840 (before the famine). They lived around Heckshersville and Forrestville, Cass Township, Schuylkill Co. PA. Sarah married John Joseph Corcoran of Minersville and lived in Minersville. My grandmother, Ellen Bridget Corcoran, was named after her both grandmothers, and was baptized in St. Vincent De Paul's Church, Minersville. One of her baptismal sponsors was a McAnaney. Sarah Brennan's other sister married a Purcell and I have extensive information concerning that family. The Brennans were related to William Murphy of Phoenix Park, PA (in Cass Township) who came from the Parish of Doonane, Co. Queens, Ireland. William Murphy was my Great-Great Grandfather's brother. More information and documentation is available upon request.

My great-great grandfather Melvin Edward McAnany came to Louisiana/Texas in the late 1800's, early 1900's from Illinois area. We have no information on his family, as he chose not to give any. We think his sister's name was Nevia or something similar. If you have any information, please reply.

Michael McAnany

DebbieSpurgeon28 — 2004-12-01 01:52:38Z

Hi Barbara,

I'm looking for Michael Edward McAnany, father of Melvin Edward McAnany. I believe Melvin's mother's name was Marguerite, but I could be wrong. Melvin was my gg grandfather. He lived in Southwest Louisiana and would never tell anyone about his family. There had been some sort of family argument and he left home and never returned. He fought in the Spanish American War. He supposedly was born in Illinois. Does any of this ring a bell? I think he had a brother named John, and possibly a sister whose name was Nevia or Neva or something along that line. Any help would be appreciated.

Thanks,

McAneney family in Scotland, UK

Richard_McAneney — 2003-03-16 01:34:36Z

My grandfather Patrick McAneney was born in Ireland in the Strabane/Newton Stewart area in the 1880s

He moved to Scotland in the early 1900s and married Teresa McGonagle on 31st October 1914 who was born in the USA of Irish descent. They had nine children and my father Patrick McAneney was the oldest born 13th February 1916.

As at today only one of the children survives, Margaret (third youngest). We know there are McAneney's from these nine children in the areas of Chesterfield (England), Cardiff (Wales), Glasgow (Scotland), Toronto (Canada) and numerous grand children and great children.

We believe the original family heritage is in the Strabane/Newton Stewart area of Ireland.

If anyone knows of any further connections do not hesitate to contact as we are interested to know more about our family heritage.

McAnany family in Illinois

dajulsgyrl — 2003-01-03 18:27:51Z

Hi!
I have a book on my gg Patrick McAnany.

He and his mother arrived in 1849 from Ireland. Went to Amboy in Lee County, Illinois. she was a widow and married John Murphy.

There are several records of her children marrying in Amboy Illinois. I see Art's and Nicholas' among others.

My gg also fought in the CW before settling in Shawnee-Mission, KS.

Many interesting family stories in the book, tracing McAnany generations from 1849 to the present...

I know my family is still searching for descendents of my gg's brothers and sisters.
We're probably related since family history says that some of my gg siblings arrived in the US prior to he and his mother.

Hope it helps.
