Hi,I believe Annie is related to the Gladneys from Northern Ireland/South Carolina, but back years before.My Gladneys are definitely related to Annie (from Killegney/Forrestal, Wexford, Ireland) and I think that they were descended from thesame families.On the internet look for my relative's account of the early Wexford Gladneys.It states that my William Gladney, born 1780 at Castleboro/Killegney was descended from a Dutch miller who had come to "our part of Ireland" in the 1740's.Some think that prior to coming to "our part of Ireland", they may have settled in Northern Ireland first.Also, I think that they were originally French Huguenots or Flemish rather than Dutch.Probably came over to Ireland after the Edict of Nantes was revoked. Please keep in touch.My e-mail is [email protected].
