Dear Ed
I may have some info on the McConvey family.
My husbands grandmother was Mary McConvey, the family were all stanuch Roman Catholics. Mary died 1986
She was the daughter of James McConvey and Mary Jane Murphy of 8 Tynwald Terrace
I think his parents were James McConvey and Elizabeth McConvey both born in Ardglass N Ireland , they spent a little time in Cockermouth before moving to 10 Tynwald Terrace
Mary had the following brothers and sisters
Johnny
Maggie
Annie
James
Thomas
Mary had one son Alfred McConvey who was killed during the early days of WWII in Battersea
followed by two further sons to her husband Tommy Cannon - Daniel who served as mayor of Douglas and my father in law Jimmy who past away last year.
Apart from Danny they are all burried in the family grave at the Douglas Borough Cemetry
Eddie McConvey son of Thomas lives in Douglas
I have a photograph of Mary and her sons together if you would like a copy please drop me a line.
I would welcome any information you have about the family if you feel we are talking about the same one.
Maxine
