<< looking for John Canty of Lixow, County, Cork, Ireland. He is my
grandfather. Understand he left Ireland and came to New York or Wallingford
Ct. His father, went to Australia along with his brothers. He married
Bridget Mahoney who I believe was also from County Cork. Believe her
mother's maiden name was Flaherty. Any information would be greatly
appreciated.

Any information on EDWARD CANTY (CEANTY). He is my
great-grandfather, father
to MARY E. CANTY of Philadelphia (1898-1939) and husband to ELLA QUINN of
Tyrone 1872-1959. His place of birth is listed as Great Britain on daughter
Mary's marriage license, but I believe him to be the same edward canty born
1867 in waterford, ireland son of william canty and ella mackey. in
addition, he may have entered usa through boston, as i see edward the courier
listed in boston/peabody/salem directories in late 1800s.
Any leads would be greatly appreciated.
