Hello,

If it would be possible, I would be extremly grateful if someone could take a picture of a window in the St. Mary's Star of the Sea church in Kilcrohane

This window was either  patronized or donated by one of my Donovan ancestors.  The possible names are listed below, but I believe someone in the family stated it was donated by

Charles  Donovan........................But

It could actually be any of the below names

 

A Huge Thank you to anyone who might be able to take and  post this picture....Huge Thanks! ****************************************************

  • Hi Dee Anna,

    Note query, was in Kilcrohane Church over the Easter period, unable to locate a church window with a reference to the Donovans of Knockroe.

    However did locate a wall plaque ( one of 14 subscriptions) with reference to the Donovans of Knockroe.

    Unable to attach pic, where it is in excess of One Mb,

    If in a position to make contact my e-mail address here is tobn@outlook.ie can e--mail pic in reply.

    Regards

    Liam Tobin
