William McAlarney

I am trying to work out who is this William McAlarney who served in the Royal Inniskilling Fusiliers as in https://search.ancestry.co.uk/cgi-bi...iv=1&ml_rpos=1

and whether or not he may be connected to my family.

There is a William McAlarney in a passenger list in 1923 in ancestry and find my past

https://search.findmypast.co.uk/reco...hlights=%22%22

but his name is crossed out!

There is a William McAlarney in both the 1901 and 1911 census in Ireland, with his sister Jane and widowed mother Mary, in Co. Cavan

I have not found a birth registration for him.

There is a death registration for a William McAlarney age 46 in 1931, Chelsea registration district.

There is also William John McAlarney, age 15 on the 1901 Irish census at Lisnaskea / Lisnaskee, Co Fermanagh:

No birthplaces given for the family. His age would fit with the one who died in 1931.

There is a William McAlarney, auctioneer, in Cavan in 1928-9:

Perhaps the one who was in Cavan on the censuses.

Thank you. Sorry, I should have mentioned that I know about William John McAlarney, age 15 - he and his family are definitely my relatives; some of them go to America.

Thank you, the auctioneer is interesting.

He was born in 1885 in Maguires Bridge, Lisnaskea, Fermanagh, his father was Philip, a tailor, and his mother Mary nee Keenan.

This is the birth registration of the Lisnaskea one, born 20 Jan 1885 at Maguiresbridge, the son of Phil McAlarney, and Mary McAlarney, formerly Keenan:

Edit - ah, I see you have that already!

This is the death reg for Jane McAlarney of Cavan:
https://civilrecords.irishgenealogy....96/4181110.pdf

and this is the Cavan Mary's death reg, in 1918, although her age doesn't fit with the 1911 census:
https://civilrecords.irishgenealogy....94/4434580.pdf
Death registered by son William, residence Railway Rd, Cavan.

This could be another child of the same Cavan family - Lizzie, born 1887 (she died young):
https://civilrecords.irishgenealogy....58/1946222.pdf
Father James McAlarney, a tailor (Mary's death reg said she was a tailor's widow) and mother Mary McAlarney, formerly Reilly.

[kiterunner]

This is James and Mary's marriage record. I can never understand why it takes so long to find certain records on the Irish site. I had to look through Mary Reilly marriages on ancestry to track it down.

Not found William's birth reg yet but will have to try again tomorrow if someone else hasn't found it by then.

Thank you very much for all of that; I shall study it carefully.
