| | Manuscript Collection | Save | | 1 | Title: | Larry Flynn Family Genealogical Papers
| | | | Creator: | Flynn, Larry Family | | | | Dates: | 1921-2002 | | | | Abstract: | Larry Flynn was born in Cleveland, Ohio, and is of Irish descent. His parents immigrated to the United States. His father, Patrick W. Flynn (b. 1888) came from Ballina County Mayo, and his mother, Theresa (christened Bridget) Ruane (b. 1900) grew up in the nearby town of Carantrila. They met for the first time in the United States, despite the fact that they came from neighboring towns in Ireland. Upon naturalization, Bridget officially changed her name to Theresa, as she disliked the fact that the name Bridget can refer to Irish house maids who were known as the "Irish Biddies". Patrick and Theresa were married on September 22, 1926 at St. Agnes Church, Cleveland, Ohio. Patrick worked as a polisher, and Theresa worked in a beauty parlor. Larry was born February 17, 1930, in Cleveland, Ohio, and married Judy Patton in 1961. He worked as a firefighter for twenty-seven years in South Euclid and Cleveland Heights. He also owned his own company, Flynn Electric. Larry was a councilman in Mayfield Village for twenty years. The collection consists of copies of certificates of naturalization, genealogies, passenger lists, and ship information. | | | | Call #: | MS 4883 | | | | Extent: | 0.20 linear feet (1 container) | | | | Subjects: | Flynn, Larry, 1930- | Flynn, Patrick W., 1888- | Flynn, Theresa, 1900- | Flynn family -- History -- Sources. | Ruane family -- History -- Sources. | Baltic II (Steamship). | Carmania I (Steamship). | Irish Americans -- Ohio -- Cleveland -- History -- Sources. | Irish Americans -- Archives. | Ireland -- Emigration and immigration -- 20th century. | United States -- Emigration and immigration -- 20th century. | Cleveland (Ohio) -- Emigration and immigration -- History -- 20th century. | Mayo (Ireland : County) -- Emigration and immigration -- 20th century.

| Manuscript Collection | Save | | 2 | Title: | Peggy Patton Family Papers
| | | | Creator: | Patton, Peggy Family | | | | Dates: | 1872-2001 | | | | Abstract: | Peggy Patton (nee Calvey) (b. 1937) is from Cleveland, Ohio, and is of Irish descent. Her parents Martin Calvey (1901-1980) and Bridget Moran (1894-1987) were both born in Achill Island, County Mayo, Ireland, in different villages, located approximately six miles from each other. The Moran family came from the Deserted Village, in Dooagh, and the Calvey family came from Dookinella. They came from large families, ten siblings each. Both parents chose Cleveland as a place to settle, as both had relatives in this area, and because employment was ample. Martin Calvey worked at the Jones and Laughlin Steel mill, while Bridget worked as a housemaid at The Union Club, located on East 12th and Euclic Avenue. It was in Cleveland that Martin and Bridget met and were married on December 10, 1929, in St. Malachi's Church. One of Patton's uncles, Michael Moran (1896-1921) was a Lieutenant in the Irish Republican Army. After participating in the Easter Rising of 1916 in Ireland, Michael was arrested in imprisoned in Darmunt in England. His last meal in the prison was a bowl of porridge (oatmeal) loaded with arsenic, provided by one of the guards. He died subsequently. Patton is the last living child of the Calveys. The collection consists of photocopies of the Moran family genealogy, a map of Achill Island outlining historic events, a Memorial at Dooagh in honor of Michael Moran, necrology files, newspaper clippings, obituary, passenger records, passport, pedigree chart, photographs, a postcard, and ship manifests. | | | | Call #: | MS 4885 | | | | Extent: | 0.20 linear feet (1 container) | | | | Subjects: | Patton, Peggy, 1937- | Calvey, Martin, 1901-1980. | Calvey, Bridget, 1894-1987. | Moran, Michael, 1896-1921. | Patton family -- History -- Sources. | Calvey family -- History -- Sources. | Clan-na-Gael. | Irish Americans -- Ohio -- Cleveland -- History -- Sources. | Irish Americans -- Archives. | Fenians. | Irish Americans -- Societies, etc. | Ireland -- History -- Easter Rising, 1916. | Ireland -- Emigration and immigration -- 20th century. | Cleveland (Ohio) -- Emigration and immigration -- History -- 20th century. | Mayo (Ireland : County) -- Emigration and immigration -- 20th century. | Achill Island (Ireland) -- Emigration and immigration -- 20th century. | Ohio -- Emigration and immigration -- History -- 20th century.
