I am adopted and looking for information about family that may have lived in Spiddal over 50 years ago.

My birth Mother was Julia Bernadette Conneely Dob, 26/10/1958 or 26/09/1958.

Her Parents ( I think) were John Conneely and Annie Conneely ( maiden name- Larkin). I dont know birth dates but they must have been born roughly between 1900- 1930

Both Parents passed away when she was about 13 years old, the cause of death was unknown but must have been in the early 70s maybe 1970-1973. 

She went to live with friends after her parents death  to complete her schooling but became pregnant at the age of 16 (1974).At this point she left Ireland and moved to London to live with sisters that had moved there.  There were at least 2 older sisters that had moved away before the parents passed away.

If this story sounds familiar to anyone and they have more information I would be most grateful

    A search of Subscription Site www.rootsireland.ie did not show any children born to John Walsh and Anne Larkin.
