I see there is a James Comer listed in the 1911 census in Raheen, Co. Galway. Not sure if this is of use. Bridget is listed as the head of family so may not be right.

Simon,

I have a Michael Comer b1864, son of John and Ellen Comer. Michael went to Sheffield and was  a bricklayers labourer. He married a Margaret Raftery (b 1874) and they raised a family in Sheffield. I have quite a lot of detail on Michaels offspring in Sheffield.

John and Ellen Comer (nee Gibbons) were my Great Great Grandparents. John was born around 1831 and they lived in Glenamaddy. Im looking for more detail on them if anyone can help.

Fascinating.

John and Ellen Comer were my great grandparents.

Michael was their third son born in 1864 and was a bricklayers labourer. He married Margaret Raftery in 1895 and both are buried in Sheffield (I have all references if needed. They had a number of children in Sheffield, Stephen 1897, John ?, Nora 1902, Mary 1901, Thomas 1901, Catherine 1910. His wife Margaret died in Sheffield in 1911 and Michael remarried Ann and they had a son * in 1923. Hope this is of use.

I have most details on John and Ellen Comers family but havent anything further back. Love to find out.
