Would like to find the parents and siblings of Edward Kehily b1875.
Edward Kehily in 1910 married Brigid Mary Keeshan b1880 of Pintown, Roscrea. In 1911 Census of Ireland they lived at House 13 Church Street (Longford No. 2 Urban, Longford). Their five children are twins Eamonn Joseph and Maire Brigit b1911, Sheila, Dermot and Kathleen Kehily. Dermot lived in Blackrock in 1977 and died a few years later.
Would you please identify the names of Roman Catholic churches and cemeteries near Blackrock, Dublin that I can write to obtain copies of church baptism records?
Thank you for your assistance.

The place to start, if you have not done it already, is with the marriage cert for Edward Kehily and Brigid
A marriage cert will show their father's names and occupations and therefore help to confirm, or rule out, any possible births or baptisms you may find.
RC Parish records for part of Co. Dublin are available (free) on www.irishgenealogy.ie, Transcripts for some of the remaining South Dublin parishes are available on the pay-website of the Irish Family History Foundation at www.rootsireland.ie

Thank you for all the information you found on Edward John Kehily, wife Brigid Mary Keeshan, and daughter Maire Kehily. The death dates match the ones I have. The daughter's name may be Moire Brigid then misspelled over the years to end up as Marie. Brigid Mary Keeshan Kehily is the older sister of John Joseph Keeshan b1888, my maternal grandfather. The 1911 Census of Ireland is indeed this Kehily family. Thanks again for your time searching for records for this family.

1939 register of electors for dublin shows, brigid mary, maria b , sheila and eamon j kehilly at 9 greenmount road terenure,it also shows eamon j at 71 dame st,dublin most likely a bussiness premises. which could be found in Thoms directories which i dont have access to. i cant find a birth or death for eamon j perhaps he's wrongly listed as a kelly?.

Thank you for the info.
Found this record on ancestry com. The last name is correct, he is twin to Moire-Maire-Maria born March 1911, and the district Longford is a match, but this probably is for someone else, though mistakes are not uncommon.
