MARRIED IN 1860 TO CHRISTINA DALY,5TH DAUGHTER, OF JAMES PETER DALY AND MARGARET DOLPHIN OF TUROE

. Edward Southwell FitzGerald, Capt. Hon., * 1864, +, Md. 1884, Margaret Mary D?Arcy, d. of Matthew P. D?Arcy, of Kilcroney.

From the Visitation of Ireland: A wee bit of info for you all.

Edward Plunkett Burke,= born at 55 Pembroke Road, Dublin, i July, bapt. at Haddington Road Catholic Church 17 July 1866; Lieut. 2nd Battalion King's Own (Royal Lancaster Regiment.) =Christina Juliana Mary, dau. of Matthew Peter D'Arcy of Clonmines, co. \Ve.\- ford, and Kilcroney, co. Wicklow, M.P., J.P., and D.L., by Christma Mar- garet his wife, dau. of James Daly of Castle Daly, co. Galway, J. P. and D.L. ; born 7 February, bapt. at West- land Row Church 13 February 1867; marr. at Donnybrook Catholic Church, Dublin, 19 March 1892.

Wicklow, Ireland, the latter part of the 1870s: 1. Thomas Darby, address Bray, owned 358 acres. 2. Matthew P. D'Arcy, address Kilcroney, Bray, owned 119 acres.

I suppose Mary Anne might just be the sister of Matthew Peter D'Arcy, or at least some relative. His wife, Christine Margaret Daly may be my great grand mother's sister. She was Mary Daly, then Johnston.

hopefully some more information may come to light...wish I knew more about her. *sigh* :)

While I have built up a file of the Christina Daly/Matthew P.D`Arcy family, His Father was John D`Arcy whoo was Lord Mayor of Dublin ,Matthew himself was Member of Parliment for Wexford. Records show that the had 6 children but I hold a family Bible showing they had 9 children John, the father lived in Raheny Lodge,Dublin Matthew and Christina lived in Shanganagh House,Loughlinstown,Kilcroney Castle (or House ) Bray,(still standinding and used as a Scool) The town house was in MerrionaSquare

Vickie,
on re-reading my posted reply I realised that I omitted to answer your question.
I have done little research into the D`Arcys previous to M.P.D`A and found no Mary Ann.
