I'm looking for relatives in Kilbaha. My grandmother Marie Keane was from here. Left to go to US. not sure of dates early 1920's I think. Had several siblings. Brothers Patrick left with her to NY. Marie settled in Bridgeport Ct. married Joseph McDonnell from either Ross Or Kilkee Kilrush. Martin Keane left later to US. Marie also had twin sister Della.Any help would be appreciated. Thanks

  • Marie immigrated with her twin sister and not her brother. She went to sty with brother Patrick in Brisgeport. A, away at the moment. But will send more when possible.

  •   Hello I'm so happy to hear some information! I'm Sarah McDonnell the daughter of John Marie's oldest son. I am also a twin and never remember meeting my grandmother's twin sister. I am trying to find my relatives in Clare but I'm finding it difficult because I cannot get dates and places from my dad's family. My father passed on about 15 yrs ago. I also have not been in touch with the McDonnell side of my dad's side because of a falling out which happened years ago. I have recently reached out to my cousin Bob McDonnell on facebook and he gave me some information to start looking. I would love to get more information. I am planning to come to Ireland in the future- don't have it really planned out yet but would like to travel to where my grandparents came from. Do you have any information on my grandfather Joseph McDonnell? Where he is from? My cousin thought Ross or Kilrush. Please contact me. I live on Martha's Vineyard Ma. island off Cape Cod Ma. I can be reached at 508 696 5703. My email is Sarahmcd@verizon.net. Thanks so much

  • Hi SarahM

    By chance I read your message.  May I recommend that you edit it and add the relevant surnames and use a Message Title that reflects the content (all messages on this message board are about Kilballyowen, so your original title will not attract anyone's attention)?

    This might be your Keane family in the 1911 census.

    There are a few discrepancies, but there is a Martin and there are apparently twin girls. Check the original image to confirm that the ages are actually mistranscribed.

    Most of Kilbaha village stands on Kiltrellig townland.

    The same family are there in 1901.

    The grandparents were Thomas Keane and Kate Lillis.  Their marriage is in the parish register:

    JANUARY 27th 1856 THOMAS KEANe from KILTRELIG
    to CATE LILLIS from ROSS
    PATT LILLIS & BRIDGET McMAHON
    Rev L Hannan

    Their younger children are in Ireland, Births and Baptisms.

    The older children (pre-civil registration in 1864) will be in the baptismal register on facebook.

  • I say thank you for letting me visit you have here. I wish you great hope to write something more useful in the future for us. And pass on the positive things in us, and for entertainment interlude eyes modifikasi vixion then a fresh one is able to make you back in shape with modifikasi satria fu How did you prepare the actors for their performances? Conversations and rehearsal. The conversation was, "What is it, what does it mean?" And again, this is not just a Bobby Sands film
