Thomas and America were married. Ellis would be his son, and Mary (my grandmother, your great-grandmother, is Ellis's daughter. There were 3 children...Mary, Everett & Elva. America's maiden name was Bush. Ellis' wife, Ethel, was a Chaffins.
The Cleary history is somewhat sketchy. It took me years piecing things together. I've save letters from way back from my dad (Lowell) and from grandma (Mary). I am in contact with the rest of the cousins in Kentucky. Unfortunately, I've never met or spoken to your dad, Alan, Cheryl or Charles.
Just a short note about me. We (Lowell, my mom and I) lived in South Shore Kentucky. When they divorced, he moved away to the Ashville area. Mom and I ended up having to move and went to Portsmouth Ohio (across the river from South Shore). That's where I went to school until years later when my mom re-married and we moved to Indiana. That's where I am now.
I've also come in contact with a cousin who resides in St Louis, MO. She just recently found out she's a Cleary also. Her grandfather is Elva Cleary, Mary's younger brother. It's all very complicated at times.
It's awesome that you're looking things up. The only person I've been unsuccessful in finding is my grandfather (Lowell's dad). That seems to be a mystery.
Nice to hear from you. I'm in facebook if you want to friend me. I have some pictures in there but not many.

Thank you for answering my question. I am a little confused so thomas and america were husband and wife? or who are they the parents of? was it ellis or ethel? also if you know any other info I would love to hear it all. I don't exactly know much at all on my fathers side. My dad(phil)could only go back as far as his grandmother mary. I value all the info that you could share and I appreciate it. I am glad that I found you on here I was kinda lost. I am sorry to say that I have never met you. Are you from columbus? Anyhow I always wondered what my background was. I thought it was certain with a last name like cleary that I was somewhat irish. However I have no idea what else. This is what kind of got me into checking this all out. I love this site however I hate that you pretty much have to pay to find anything out. Well I look forward to hearing from you soon and all that you have to share.

Hi,
It's Aug 23rd 2012. I just found your entry and question about Thomas Cleary. Thomas Cleary and America Cleary are the parents of Ellis James Cleary & Ethel Chaffins Cleary. Ellis & Ethel are my grandmothers parents. My grandmother was Mary Cleary-Schmehling. Lowell is Mary's son (which you know). I am Lowell's daughter from his first marriage (before his marriage to Joyce). If you want to go back further then the parents of Thomas Cleary are Michael Cleary and Anne Dooley-Cleary. They are from Ireland (as was Thomas Cleary). I hope that helps you. Sorry that it took soooo long to find and answer your questions. Good Luck with your searches.

I learned of my relationship to Stella Marie from A Sr.of St Joseph of Toronto. I would like to know more of Stella Maries line in the states.
