I am trying to find information about my great-grandfather, John O'Connell from Port Magee and/or his wife Mary Casey O'Connell from Ballinskelligs. They were married in 1870 in Duneagan and had approximately 7 children, one of which was my grandfather, John, who emigrated to St. Louis, MO in 1902. Looking for any living relatives in Ireland or the USA.

See fourth record 1870 civil marriage record. Names of fathers listed https://civilrecords.irishgenealogy.ie/churchrecords/images/marriage_re…
Is this your O'Connell family in the 1901 census? http://www.census.nationalarchives.ie/pages/1901/Kerry/Portmagee/Portma…; John is not included. Civil parish is Killemlagh and RC parish was Prior/Ballinskelligs
1911 census http://www.census.nationalarchives.ie/pages/1911/Kerry/Portmagee/Portma…
see fourth record likely death record for John O'Connell 1926 https://civilrecords.irishgenealogy.ie/churchrecords/images/deaths_retu…
did not locate Mary's death record.
Have you considered DNA testing?
