Patrick CONRY/CONDRY, Born 1845, Ireland, County Roscommon

Hello,

The 1851 England Census shows a Patrick CONRY was born in County Roscommon, Ireland, in 1845 but resident in Birmingham with his family.......there are no further references to a Patrick CONRY that I have unearthed. A Patrick CONDRY was sentenced to 2 years imprisonment on 07/01/1861 and appears as "PC" on the 1861 England Census born in Birmingham?? Not the same person?? However, the 1880 United States Federal Census quotes a Patrick CONDRY, born 1845 in Ireland living in West Virginia.

Does anyone feel there is a connection between these three that can be developed, or I am barking entirely up the wrong tree!!

For the moment,

Tony Cocks
 
Hi Tony - I don't know if you have seen this or if it helps but it is the report from the Birmingham Daily Post 9th January 1861 of Patrick Condry age 16, a gilt toy maker stealing a cape on the 27th November 1860 and being sentenced to 2 years imprisonment with hard labour.

Thanks pollypops,

He was also caught up in the Park Street riots in 1867 as Patrick CONDRY but was discharged.
