Hello:My name is John Doyle and my Wife and I are visiting Ireland for the Centennial celebrations later this month.After the Dublin activities we plan to visit Tipperary on 3/29,/3/30,3/31 and part of 4/1.
My Grandparents were both born in Ireland and emigrated to the US before marrying and raising a family.My Grandmother,Nora Feehan, was born in Toomovera and We've made contact with her family and have a get together planned for 3/30
My Grandfather,William Doyle,came from Killenaule.His parents were William Doyle and Margaret Fahey.He had a brother,Patrick,who also came to the US but I believe he had other siblings who remained in Ireland.I have no names much less contact information for any of the Killenaule Doyles,their descendants or people who may have known them.
Any help or direction you might provide me would be GREATLY appreciated.
Thank you
John A Doyle
