I'm researching my great, great grandfather, John M. Convery, born 1809, possibly in Ireland  He married Sarah Lagan (born 1827) in 08 SEPT 1853; together they had the following children (church records indicate Lavey Parish) :

Mary - born 1854; John - born 1855; John - born 1858; Mary - born 1859; Patrick - born 1861; William James - born 1864; Robert Henry - born 1866; and Charles (my grandfather) (church records have his last name spelled "Confrey") - born 1869

John M. Convery and Sarah Lagan Convery are buried together in the Old Cemetery at St. Mary's Roman Catholic Church, Lavey Parish.  John died on 07 JAN 1881 at age 72; Sarah died on 12 OCT 1873 at age 46.  Buried with John and Sarah is a daughter, who died on 14 JAN 1889; the daughter may be Mary Convery.

Any additional information on this family would be greatly appreciated.

  • Hi Caren,

    Thank you for your message.

     

    I suggest that you join the Lavey parish page and post your message there. Hopefully once we get some volunteers activated in the area they may be able to help you.

     

     

    Here is the link to the Lavey parish page:

    Please be patient - as our programme has only begun to rollout across the island of Ireland and volunteers in some areas may not yet be organized.
