My sister and I are just embarking on researching our family tree. Our Father was John Joseph Lynch who was born 1926 in Tipperary but his mothers family came from Killucan and this was where he grew up. His mothers name was Ann Kelly and his Father was James Lynch (we think). John had an older brother who we think was called Christopher who was born about 1922. Ann Kelly died in about 1930 in child birth (we think) John and Christopher were brought up by their mothers sisters in Killucan. One sister might have been Kathleen Mitchell who died 12th Feb 1972 age 70. We think Christopher may have been a monk for a time. John joined the army age 18 and eventually moved to Colchester Essex.
Does anyone know this family, either the Kelly sisters who will all have different names once married of course, or Christopher Lynch?
