Kilmartin Family Franfort offaly

Dear Tom

Welcome to Ireland Reaching Out and thanks for your query.

As you can see from the link below, Derrydolney is in the Civil Parish of Killoughy, Co. Offaly:

The records for the corresponding Roman Catholic parishes of Ballyboy and Killoughy begin in 1821. As this is the case, you could try searching www.familysearch.org or www.rootsireland.ie (a subscription site) for information on your Kilmartin ancestors. As both Daniel and Denis died after 1864 you should be able to locate a civil record of their deaths. If these men married you will be able to obtain the details from marriage records also.

Best of luck with your search
