Hi Michael, Welcome to the site and I hope we can help you. The only Caveney I can see is Thomas aged 47 single a Hawker living at School Croft. Thats on the 1891. Is this the chap you are looking for? Elaine in Ottawa.

hi elaine,thanks for your info. i do have a thomasbut his dates are 1849 to 1897.thats the trouble, i have the names but i can,t seem to put them together. none of them are listed on any census, apart from my g.g.father john caveney who in 1871 lived at 4 pea croft with an owen caveney born ireland 1847. my grand fathers name was owen but he was born in 1894.other names are james 1820 to1902.michael 1851 to1881.patrick 1857 to 1910.we think they originated in galway. cheers for now michael. |

Hi Michael, 1861 census......Solly St. If Catholic probably St Vincents.....opened 1853. I see that Owen & John's mother was Mary born Ireland. Was her husband John? Death Sept 1857. I don't think John & Margaret's births were registered though it does say they were born in Sheffield. I would say that a good sleuth through the Parish Registers are needed in this case....... Good Luck. Elaine in Ottawa.
