There was no user submitted family tree for Timothy Gilroy and Eliza Boyle, but I found marriage information for three of their daughters in the index for "Rhode Island, Marriages, 1724-1916".

Annie T. (Gilroy) Crane
Today I gathered data to send for some records from the Rhode Island Archives. I started by searching for Elizabeth Gilroy Weaver's death record. Then, I searched for information about her sister, Annie T. Gilroy, who married Maurice Crane.
This is part of an effort to check Timothy Gilroy and Eliza Boyle children's records for information about the parents' place of origin in Ireland. In most records the parents list their birthplace as "Ireland".
I searched http://familysearch.org, specifically searching for records in the Rhode Island, Deaths and Burials, 1802-1950, database containing the name of Annie's husband, Maurice Crane, of Newport, Newport, RI. (https://familysearch.org/search/collection/show#uri=https://familysearch.org/records/collection/1675536).
While there, I learned a sad story.
She lost a child only identified as Male on 18 Nov 1886 (https://familysearch.org/pal:/MM9.1.1/F8XY-P7Rm)

| She lost another child only identified as Female on 09 Sep 1893 (https://familysearch.org/pal:/MM9.1.1/F8XV-7SM) and she herself died at age 36 on 14 Sep 1893 (5 days after her female child) (https://familysearch.org/pal:/MM9.1.1/F8XV-3WR) Annie and Maurice's 14-year-old son, Maurice V. J. Crane, died on 18 Oct 1905 (https://familysearch.org/pal:/MM9.1.1/F8XD-C92) In 1892, there was another record for Morris Crane, as the father of Theresa Crane who died on 26 Nov 1892 (https://familysearch.org/pal:/MM9.1.1/F8XQ-GV4) Which suggested that he had remarried. This was verified in his obituary found in Newport newspapers. Annie's husband, Maurice Edward Crane died on 19 Apr 1910 (https://familysearch.org/pal:/MM9.1.1/F8XX-MM6) | |
| They had one son survive, Charles Crane. Maurice would be survived by his second wife and a son from that marriage, as well as Charlie. |
Welcome to the Gilroy Family Research Blog
This blog is intended to document what I find out about Timothy Gilroy's roots and descendants.
Timothy Gilroy came to the US in 1851, settled in Newport, RI, and married Eliza Boyle in 1855 at St. Mary's in Newport. In an effort to learn more about this couple, their ancestors, and their descendants, this blog will also be about the associated families with them. I will also include some surname study data about Gilroys living in Rhode Island between 1850 and 1900.
My goal is to claim to be the greatest living expert about Gilroys in Rhode Island between 1850 and 1900. My desire is that someone comes along with all the data I am missing to prove I am not!
