Can anyone assist with information on the Billane Family, I know that they lived in the High Street, before coming to the UK in the 60's. Patrick Billane stayed in Birr, however came to the UK on a visit and sadly passed away.
If anyone has any knowledge can they contact me.

Cheers
My grandmothers name was Elizabeth (Eliza) Billane she came from Tipperary on the border of Offaly.By the way Birr was once known as Parsonstown.You can now access the 1901 and 1911 census on line under national archives .ie
