Hi
I too am interested in information on this family since Catherine married John Keeley at St John's RC Church in Wigan on 7th January 1855.
I too have seen that they both recorded their birth in one census ( can't remember which one) in County Mayo but I haven't got very far with that. I looked on Griffiths Valuation. I have however seen on another family tree Mary Carr born in 1843 in Newport Co Mayo.

Perhaps we could share information.
Best Regards
Linda

Hi Linda,
I have the Keeleys/Carr in my family tree. They are distant though - my lineage is from Catherine's sister Bridget.
If either of you have any info going further back to their parents (James Carr and Mary Browne?) please do get in touch!
Thanks,
Steph
