• Notes

  Haven't, to date, been able to prove John Colony in Kilkenny, County Kilkenny, Ireland, except through a biographical account stated he was born there. His name was spelled as Collini in the Wrentham, Massachusetts records. In Scotland, not Ireland, I find many with the name Colline in the county of Orkney.  Will hopefully be able to look into this, as many Irish families first lived in Scotland. Also spelled as Connolly, Conoly, Collini, Colline, Callahane, and Conley. Came to Wrentham, Massachusetts about 1740.
