Hello, Lee,

Where were your Connollys from? Might they be from Kildare? My Michael
Dunn's mother's name was Mary Connolly (written various ways).

I also noticed in the records from the new newspaper project that a
Maria Clinton was in Troy quite early and wonder whether she was a
Kildare Clinton?

Thanks, Mary Lee Dunn

RE: New Catholic Ground, Troy. Our first Conolly's to be buried in Troy
were,
according to my gr gr grandfather's journal, buried in the "new
catholic burying
ground", which was in 1847, one of the earliest burials in what is now
St.
Mary's Cemetery.  I am not sure this is the same, as your date are ten
years
later, but it is common for a cemetery to be referred as the "old" or
"new"
burying ground.  My gr gr grandfather Conolly/Connolly, by the way,
married Mary
Ann "Carey."   Are your Careys, from Galway? If you have Sullivan links
to the
Careys - then we are related somewhere along the tree.  Lee

Hi Lynn.  I'm a little late catching up with my emails, and I don't see
any
replies on-List to your question.  My guess (and only a guess) would be
she
was buried in what was soon to become an official Catholic
cemetery...perhaps St. Agnes in Cohoes, or St. Agnes in Menands. Have
you
considered writing to, or calling the Diocese office in Menands?  They
hold
the records for old Parishes and cemeteries.  They might be able to
help
you, seeing that you have the date of death. Where did you find this
record?

Terry Bora
