hello
thought you might be interested to know Mary Elizabeth Darby was my husband’s grandmother – her father’s mother was Mary Carr and her mother’s mother Elizabeth Martin. Grandmother Mary married Thomas Malarkey in Glasgow 24th Nov 1899 they had twelve children. Pleased to share what I have learned with you. I even have a photo of Mary.
Hi Valerie! I am really excited you found this. I just sent you a private email. Any chance you know who the Lapsleys are?
Hi, just thought I’d let you know that Patrick & Mary Darby’s daughter Helen McAvoy (m.s. Darby) was my great grandmother who I was named after as we shared the same birthday. I’ve been having great fun doing my family tree and it’s always exciting to hear from other branches of the tree. All the very best Helen
Hi Helen,
Wow we are cousins then! Well 3rd cousins to be exact. What part of the world are you in? Ive connected with Darby cousins in Ireland and Australia and I am in the United States. Helen’s sister Elizabeth was my great grandmother. Do you know Valerie from the previous comments? If there are any documents you want just let me know and I’ll email them to you. This is a lot of fun 🙂
