Hello Martin,

My great grandmother was Bridget Heneghan who was Patrick's sister.  She married James Kielty and they lived in Shanballymore, Dunmore and went on to have eight children.  One of them Mary Ellen Kiellty married Michael Flaherty (my grandparents) who settled in Rockfort, Irishtown.  They had four children, one of whom was Nora Flaherty who married Peter Collins and they lived in Cashel, Boyounagh, Glenamaddy.  I am their youngest daughter, Bridgetta.  I am currently doing a family tree on MyHeritage.com and finding it very interesting.  Do you know what Sabina Heneghan's maiden name was?  My mother will be 84 this year so her memory is n't as good as it used to be but she has helped a lot with all my info so and remembers a good bit of the Heneghan side of things.  If you let me have your e-mail address, I can send you an invite to join the family tree from MyHeritage.com.  I have just been talking to my sister who actually think she remembers your father, Denis, calling to our house when my grand-aunt, Julie Kielty, died in 1973.  She thinks he lived in Ballymoe at the time but she may be imagining this.  If you can scan in the photo of your grandmother, I'd love to see it.  My direct e-mail is (*). 

Thanks
Bridgetta ;)

Hi,

In my family tree, I have the Heneghans of Louth Lodge too.  My great grandmother was Bridget Heneghan whose brother was Patrick Heneghan and her mother was Sabina Heneghan who was age 75 on the 1911 Census.  My mother has pointed out the house to me that her grandmother came from which I assume is Louth Lodge, its a lovely detached two storey house (derelict now) but still standing on the Clonbern Road, as far as I can remember its on th first sharp left bend when you leave Dunmore.  If you want to look on http://www.census.nationalarchives.ie check Sabina Heneghan, Quarter (Dunmore South, Galway).  Let me know, if we are on the same Heneghan household.
