Stuart:
My Clearys (William Cleary & Family)came to Canada in the Immigration sponsored by Peter Robinson (theres a fair amt of documentation on the web
about this particular immigration) and the ships involved came out of Cork. It is my understanding that the Clearys are very numerous in Cork & Claire
Counties.
