It would appear reasonably certain that Cadwallader BLAYNEY born about 1705 of Dromore, Co. Tyrone, Ireland was the father, not only of John and Cadwallader (Chadwallader) Blayney families who emigrated to the USA, but of Ambrose BLAYNEY [who married Jane STEEL(E)], in turn the father of the Cadwallader BLAYNEY who married Mary SPROULE.
Ambrose Blayney (born 1740 who married Jane Steele (born 1745) in 1767 (Ulster) and identical descendants appear on this page, the Blaney page as the ancestor of many Canadian Blaneys; the Canada page as the ancestor of many Canadian Blayneys and the CadwalladerUSA page as the ancestor of many US Blayneys! There are at least two links to some New Zealand Blayneys [NZ Somerville families and NZ David Blayney.]
