What's New (past 60 days)

UPDATE MAR 2021

• Rose Ann Hannaway (1878-1937) was the daughter of Hughie Hannaway in the Slieve Gullion household and also became the fourth wife of Patrick Maguire from Ballyvalley, Mayobridge, near Newry. All his wives and children are now included. Wife 1: married Mary Higgins of Ballyagholy (adjoins Ballyvalley) in Rostrevor in 1883. Mary died in Coatbridge, Scotland in 1890. Wife 2: married Elizabeth Sheils in 1891. Elizabeth died in 1894 from complications after giving birth to twins. Within 2 months Patrick Maguire marries Wife 3: Elizabeth McClorey and they had two children. Elizabeth died in 1916 and the following year Patrick Maguire married Rose Ann Hannaway. Rose Ann is now aged 39 and they had no children.

• Anne/Nancy Hannaway (1851-1915) was a sister of Hughie Hannaway in the Slieve Gullion household and married Patrick Bennett of Ballykeel. At one stage the couple lived in England Their daughter Roseanne Bennett’s birth has been traced to Durham in 1877 and baptism in St Wilfrid's RC church, Hexham St., Bishop Auckland. One of the Godparents in Durham was Anne’s and Hughie’s brother John Hannaway (1840-1917). John used to carry out seasonal work in England and had married into the McGinnis household in Levelamore. Shortly afterwards Nancy and Patrick Bennett returned to Ireland and took over Larkin’s place in Levelamore (near to Din Crawley’s). Roseanne Bennett married John “the Rocks” Kelly. 

• Four of Hughie Hannaway’s sons moved to Coatbridge in Scotland. Brothers Patrick and James married two sisters; Patrick married Ellen O’Hanlon in 1909, James married Mary Ann O’Hanlon in 1910. Their marriages are now recorded here.

UPDATE JULY 2020

• An audio recording of Georgy Hannaway (1928-2012) playing the harmonica can now be found on his page (or Recordings on the Menu). In his younger days Georgy played piano accordion and on this recording from 1989 he would be aged about 61 years.
• Johnny Bennett of Levelamore married Maggie Boyle; they had 11 children (Maggie was one of the 5 Boyle sisters from Slieve Gullion townland). We have now traced Johnny's birth in England and his Baptism in St Wilfred's, Bishop Auckland, Durham on 17 Jan 1875. 
• Sadie Morgan married Francis McParland (b1909) and her grandmother, Mary Hanlon, was a daughter of Laughlin Hanlon/O'Hanlon from Lathbirget townland. This Hanlon family now appears here. Sadie's mother ("Minnie" Murphy) had a brother John Murphy who married Rose Bennett in 1910. Rose is a daughter of Johnny Bennett.

UPDATE  FEB 2020

• Recent new faces include Charles Hughes, born in Ummeracam in 1902-brother of Brian Hughes who married Lizzie, sister of Sarah Byrnes (the subject of

  these family records). Charles left for America in 1930 and married Rose Kirk

  in 1932 in Manhattan NY. Rose was from Tatebane just over the Irish border near

  Dundalk.

The paternal grandparents of Charles are now included, back to the Gollogly

and the Kirley family. The parents of Charles’ mother, Rose Grant, are now

included. Her father James Grant was from Carrigans townland - adjoining

Ummeracam; her mother was Bridget McVarry.

• Francis Hannaway, born 1896, was the son of Hughie Hannaway from Slieve

  Gullion townland. Francis left for America in 1920 and in 1922 married Annie

  McGovern in Lynn, Massachusetts. Annie and her family were from near Belcoo in

  County Fermanagh on what later became the border between Ireland and the United

  Kingdom. Annie’s siblings and grandparents have been added.

•  Finally  a remarkable man John

  Alphonsus McGlade, born in 1882. John’s mother Ann McGinnis was the daughter of

  Bartholomew McGinnis the original farmer in what later became the Hannaway

  house in Levelamore. Ann McGinnis married John McGlade from the field next door (known later

  as Mary McCoy’s then John Crawley’s).

In 1884 Ann (McGlade) now a widow left for America to join her son

Brendan and daughter Bridget McGlade. With her were here 6 remaining children,

including John Alphonsus and they settled in Pittsburgh Pennsylvania.

“John wanted to become a priest and started college at St. Vincent

Seminary.  This school even today is way

out in the country. John would jump a train, probably to save money, to get to

school.  One day he missed and lost the

lower part of both arms; the year was 1915.”

“The Knights of Columbus, Supreme Council awarded him a full

scholarship at Catholic University, in Washington DC.  He graduated, June 11th, 1919 receiving a

degree of Bachelor of Laws. That year he was admitted to the Washington, PA

County Bar and to the Supreme Court of PA. At some point he retired to private

practice.  To do this he had a remarkable

memory. I have a copy of his memorial service, he died in June, 1962”.

I am grateful to Gwen McGlade (Auel) for these memories of her

great-uncle John. Gwen, from Pittsburgh now retired in Arkansas has generously

shared photos of the McGlade’s from Levelamore in USA. Also of Bartholomew

McGinnis (born 1867) better known as Brother Constantine CFX.
