I wish I knew more. This is the first that I heard of this location and only because it is written on the headstone.
I keep hitting brick walls when it comes to Ireland and England

The Newport Humphreys are recorded in Doonane in 1660s. Doonane is situated at the bottom of Keeper Hill.

Hi Mary...my cousin and John.
Keeper Hill is where a lot of ancestors were. Mary is in my group too. Let's share the info there too so we find the connections.
