No more photos of her but three of her sons Michael, Edward and James. The Sisters at the presentation convent in Listowel may have a picture of her daughter Anna, Sister Brendan. Other than that we have very little on Anna Pope Hennessy. Her death certificate and the baptism records for her children are all that we have discovered so far. If you come across any info please let me know.

Anna Pope Hennessy born 1806, married James O'Connell in 1837. James had a lot of influence in Lahardane in Griffiths and they had six children as far as I know. Frances 1837, Michael 1839 papal knight, Edward 1840 my GGGrandfather, James 1844 Parish Priest Melbourne and Anna 1846 Sister Brendan Listowel Convent. James Senior died in 1868 and we believe he is buried with his father Edward in Knockanure Graveyard. Anna Senior died in Listowel 28 March 1881 but we have been unable to locate her burial.

There was a large family of Hennessys located just outside Ballybunion in a townland called Lahardane. It was in the parish you're interested in. Don't know if any James lived there but there were a lot. My GGGGrandmother was a Hennessy from there and I have her photo.
