Looking for relatives of Thoas Cooney/ Ellen Gafney of keadue West parish listed is Kilronan don't know the new name. They had ten children born between 1864-1883 in Keadue West. I have not found their marriage. At least three of the daughters ,Winifrid, Mary, and Ellen came to Massachusetts in the late 1800's and early 1900's. Margaret signed her father's death cert in 1911. We are looking for any relatives of this family still living in Ireland

  • Hi

    Have you checked the information to be found in the 1901 and 1911 census records for other possible family members? You can find this here: http://www.census.nationalarchives.ie/search/

     

    Most Catholic records are held locally - One site which might be of use is - http://www.irishtimes.com/ancestor/browse/ - where you can ?browse? an overview of available records per county. If you have any difficulty, you could try writing to the parish priest for possible assistance.

     

    Remember to post as much information as you can with regard to the people you are researching. The more information you post, the more likely it is that one of our volunteers will be able to advise or assist you.

    Also include information concerning which sources you may have already used so others may further your search.

    Please make sure you link anyone else in your family who is interested in their Irish heritage to our site - and indeed anyone else you know of Irish heritage.

    Kind regards,
