Hello everyone. I have recently learned that my parents' families, on both sides, are from the Kilmihil and Miltown Malbay areas. The surnames would be Considine, McCarthy, O'Neill and Marrinan. I will be traveling to the area in October and am starting the process of looking for any relatives I may have still in Ireland. Great, great grandfather Jeremiah McCarthy of Ennistymon Rd., Miltown Malbay. His wife Ann Marrinan McCarthy. My great grandmother Bridget Considine O'Neil and her husband James O'Neil. I am descended from O'Neills and O'Neils, both spellings. Thanks for anything anyone can contribute.

Hi there:
Welcome to Ireland Reaching Out!
I may be able to assist you if you cna give me some more information including dates/years of birth and/or death.
I live in County Clare,and I'm happy to meet with you and/or to arrange for someone in the local area to meet with you when you visit. Please let me know. You can email me directly at: jhalloranryan@irelandxo.com
If you have not yet checked out the online resources available through the Clare Library, here is the link to Kilmihil:

The Miltown Malbay parish link for the Clare Library is the civil parish of Kilfarboy. This link is below:

The above link has a large number of genealogical sources which are worth loooking through.
There is also a Kilmihil Community website and the link is here:
I look forward to hearing.
All the best,
