Re: Packington's question regarding my previous post stating that Julia Driscoll was the mother of Ned Curtin; your question caused me to review a document received from Aemon Lankford several years ago. It is the transcript of a conversation that he had with Wiliam "Billy" Curtin in August of 1981. I now conclude that it was not Julia Driscoll who married Denis Curtin, but her sister Shiela. Sorry for the confusion but Billy's narrative is quite convoluted.

I have only one recorded sibling to Edward "Ned" Curtin and that is Honora "Annie" Curtin. There may have been another sibling named Ellen but I have no record of that. Your best bet to verify that would be to check with the Cape Clear Heritage Center. Sorry I don't have a URL.

Hello,
Yesterday I googled denis curtin cape clear and came up with your message to the RootsChat.
Since I was not a member I had to enroll in order to respond but here I am. I realize that it has been some time since you wrote your message and that you have probably obtained the information you were seeking. but thought I'd let you know that I have the information that you are reqesting.
My grandmother was Honora Annie Curtin, born on Cape Clear on January 17th 1864. To Dennis Curtin and Julia Driscoll. Her brother was Edward "Ned" Curtin who married Catherine Fitzgerald in 1889. They had 12 children one of whom was Jeremiah. I have the names of Jeremiah's siblings but DOB on only a couple of them.
Jermiah married Nelly (maiden name unknown) on November 3, 1935 in Brooklyn NY. I list the names and DOB of their 4 children but do not have additional information on them.
If you feel this is the family that you are researching, I'd be happy to provide whatever further detail I have that might be useful.
I was searching for information on the parents of Dennis Curtin born about 1830, husband of Julia Driscoll. residents of Cape Clear. If you have information pertaining to that generation I would appreciate it.
