  • All Saints' Church in Castleconnell is a delightful early nineteenth century building, full of interesting plaques associated with local families, including Sir Richard Bourke, sometime Governor-General of Australia, who actually died in the church! Sunday worship is held at 9.30am every week and there is a thriving congregation of about 35 and a vibrant Sunday School. Stradbally

     

    (2) St Senan's Church, Clonlara is used once a month and has a small but dedicated congregation, and major events such as Harvest Thanksgiving and Carol Services are generously supported by the wider 8 miles away.

     

    I carry out genealogy searches. If interested contact Seamus @ foxseamus@gmail.com

  • Do the burial records for All Saints Church, Castleconnell, survive? My great grandfather, Capt. George Ingham,RN died on 9 November 1837 (his widow was Catherine nee Shadwell). She lived in Island House, Cloon Island, Castleconnell, Limerick. Thanks
