Hi Jim:
Better late than never eh?
Thank you for your insight on this.
I will try to contact the Linenhall info you mentioned. Do you know a website link?
After many years, a collaborative group of Keenan researchers have found Keenan relatives (William, son of John Keenan;b. abt. 1812, IRL. William indicated in UK 1911 census he was originally from Grey Abbey, Down. He is the nephew of my ggg grandfather; Felix Keenan;b. 1814;IRL).
Best regards
Chuck

Hi again Jim:
I saw another response you answered that indicated the linenhall site had already researched the McQuoid's of Greyabbey. By this, do you mean the entire family line?
How do I contact them?
Best regards from Western NY

Cumberland Completed Lookups / Re: Doran/Keenan
« on: Monday 06 June 05 02:09 BST (UK)  »
I just found the census reference:
It is from the 1881 British Census
Thomas Keenan;35 Coal miner; IRL
Mary Keenan; 33, wife; Cumberland
John Doran; 5 months; nephew, Maryport, Cumberland
Sarah Keenan; 79; Annuitant, IRL

This fits in with previous info re: Bernard Doran marrying Susannah Keenan and the birth of John Doran in 1881.  The ages and names match my gr-gr gr grandmother, Sarah Jane (McQuoid) Keenan and her son, Thomas; b. 1845.

Down / Keenan/McQuoid families
« on: Sunday 05 June 05 20:52 BST (UK)  »
Hello:
I am researching my KEENAN and McQOUID families, whom I believe are from the Ards Penninsula in Co.Down.
My gr-gr-grandfather, John KEENAN, was baptized in Kircubbin, Co.Downi in 1835. His parents, Felix and Sarah Jane (McQuoid) KEENAN were born in IRL in 1814/1809. Felix moved the family to the Workington area of Cumberland, ENG about 1850.
The sponsers for John's baptism were Robert McShane and Lucinda Dorrian. Based upon my friend, Bill Seeley's research, these families were interelated and likely from the Ballyobegun area of Co. Down.
Any information on these families would be greatly appreciated.
Best regards,
Chuck Keenan

Cumberland Completed Lookups / Doran/Keenan
« on: Sunday 05 June 05 20:44 BST (UK)  »
Hello:
I have a Bernard Doran that married my Susannah Keenan in 1865, Maryport, Cumberland, ENG. Susannah was born in 1838 in Ireland.
They had a son, John Doran born in 1881. I have Susannah's family originally located in the Dearham area of Cumberland, ENG after IRL. I have found Susannah's brother , John Keenan, who was baptized in Kircubbin, Co. Down in 1835. Her parents were Felix and Sarah (McQuoid) Keenan; b. IRL in 1814/1809.

Interestingly enough, the sponsers for John's baptism were Lucinda Dorrian and Robert McShane. I am told that Dorrian is a county Down variation of Doran.
I can't put my hands on it, but I believe I saw a Doran listed in one of the Workington area census, living in the home of a Felix Keenan and listed as a nephew.
If anyone has any additional info on these families, drop me a line.
Best regards,
Chuck Keenan
