Surnames: Teefy & Gleeson
Hi Everyone,
I am researching the Teefy Family from Birdhill, County Tipperary, Ireland. Parents were Patrick Teefy & Margaret Gleeson. Their children were: William b:1826, Catherine b:1827, John b:1829, Mary b:1831, Michael b:1832, Denis b:1834, Daniel b:1836,Connor b:1838 and Bridget b:1842.
Their son Denis Teefy married widow Julia Fitzgerald (nee Madden) in Sydney in 1862 at St Mary's Cathedral.Looking for anyone connected to this family in Australia or in Ireland.
There is another Teefy message board at www.genforum.genealogy.com
Regards Cheryl from Melbourne, Australia.

Hello, my ancestor is William Teefy born about the time you list.
I do not have anything else on him but the name Denis stays in the family so that is a bit of a clue.
Do you know any more of William? Mine immigrated to Philadelphia PA USA a bt 1845-50ish.

This will take you to William J Teefy and Mary Ryan.

I am related to him as well through his son WILLIAM J TEEFY, born November 01, 1867, son RAYMOND A TEEFY, born April 1892, son Raymond Anthony Teefy, Jr. born April 14, 1920.

Cheryl,

I am researching my great great grandmother who was born CATHERINE TEEFY, in Tipperary, probably Birdhill, in Jan of 1835. I do not know her parents. She married Patrick Kennedy and their only daughter was born in Schenectady, NY in 1854. I do not know if they married in Ireland or in New York. Patrick died young, and Catherine remarried in 1860 John Maher (probably "Meagher" in Ireland), also from Tipperary but living in Chicago. They had five children together.

The daughter from Patrick Kennedy was my great grandmother who corresponded with relatives in Australia until one of them irritated her enough so that she broke off the connection. Catherine died in 1912 in Chicago.

If any of this connects with you, please contact me. Thanks!
Kathy Gire

Hi Kathy,
I'm afraid a list of names and dates of birth for the Teefy children of Patrick Teefy and Margaret (nee Gleeson) is all I have so far. The child Catherine, daughter of the above was born in 1827 a bit earlier than your Catherine. Apart from that I really don't know much more.
Good luck in your research.
Regards Cheryl.

Thanks anyway, Cheryl. I am familiar with the family you mentioned. Dates are too far off. I found another "Taffe" family with a Catherine born in 1841, but this is too late for my Catherine. She was 19 when my great grandmother was born, and so that one is off as well.

I weill persevere!

Hi Cheryl
Great to here from you. My Father was John Patrick Teefy..son of Isabella Hill and John Francis Teefy...son of Dennis Teefy and Julia.
Did you know Isabella Hill (my grandmother) had been married before to a William Holiday before she married my Grandfather John Francis Teefy?. She also married again when my grandfather died to a Thomas Carter.
Are you in Australia? I have a lot of information I can share with you if you need it. My grandmother Isabella is buried at The Field Of Mars cemetary and so is my grandfather John.
