HI
Mary Keefe was around 1800 her son Michael Grady was born 1830 and his sister around 1840. Michael died in 1914 in Pennsylvania and his siter Mary married Patrick Costello and they lived in Clonmel Co Tipperary.I am not sure where in Cork they came from I am trying to establish that

I haven't gone back too far yet on the Walshes, as far as I know they are from Clonmel butm Thurles is not far away.  The Sullivans again I am not sure, I have them all named in a will that ws made by Michael Grady/Keiff who emigated to PA.  As far as I know he hailed from Cork.  It is difficult to stay focused as different names keep cropping up to send you on another line of thought.  I do know for definite that these all belong somewhere in the family as I have letters to my grandfather regarding the will.  Hopefully the link will be apparent pretty soon.

good luck everyone

I am trying to trace my gt grandmother's family.  Her name was Mary Curran born about 1868.  Her father was Michael Curran.  Mary married a John Lonergan in 1889 in Clonmel and they had 3 children, Ellen, Neddy (Edward) and Michael.  He died and she married my gt grandfather, James Holden again in Clonmel in 1897.  (James Holden died in 1915 in Flanders, France in the 1914-1918 war). They had 5 children, Alice (my grandmother) Mary (Molly), Tommy, James and Edward.

I believe some of the Currans emigrated to America and those are the ones I am trying to trace.  Unfortunately I cannot establish who Mary's mother was.

My grandmother Alice married Arthur Patrick Barrett from Clonmel.  Her sister Molly married Patrick Walsh.  If any of this is familiar to anybody I would welcome any information.

Hi

Our McCarthys are from Clonmel.  John McCarthy married Johanna Morrissey in 1866, he was a Baker. They had 7 children

Charles, Patrick, John Joseph, Justin, Richard, Margaret Mary and Johanna Mary  all born between 1869 and 1881 and I am trying to trace their descendents.  Do these names mean anything to you?
