I,too, am searching for the DEASY family.
Mine are centered on Lehina(Lehenagh)which is between Butlerstown and Timoleague(a few miles from Clonakilty). My greatgrandmother was Annie DEASY one of 8 sisters and 5 brothers and she married a Timothy MAHONEY from Timoleague.
Jeremiah is a name which features in both families.
The DEASY girls married into local families including KEOHANE(settled in Clonakilty)WHITE (some went to Pittsburgh Penn.USA),FAIR(PHAIR),SEXTON and two married SHEEHYs.
At least one of the DEASY boys went to Pittsburgh also.
Descendants still live in the family home there today. Others came to the UK, believed London.
The Clonakilty DEASYs seem to have been connected in some way to the large Brewing firm of DEASY which is still a presence in the town today.
Any connection?
