James Danahy was married to Ellen McSweeny. They left Ireland for Canada, probably in the mid-1830s, with two children, Mary (born 1831) and Catherine (born 1834).

It appears that their first child born in Canada was Ellen (born abt. 1840) in the Township of Nichol, County of Wellington in present-day Ontario.

Six children followed: Margaret (born abt. 1842), Hanora (born abt. 1843), Johannah (born abt. 1844), James (born abt. 1845), Ann (born abt. 1847), and Patrick (born abt. 1848).

James Danahy was a farmer and a Roman Catholic.

Probable marriage and baptismal records have been found linking James and Ellen to the townlands of Ardmoneel and Garrahadoo.
