Hi,
I have read your message on the Kellys and Gleesons.
I have a connection to Kellys but at the moment i cannot tell you if it is through the Gleesons or Minihans. I know the Kellys that i am trying to connect had a butchers or Pork shop in Limerick City. It was there in the 1960s. Do you have any thing on that?
I have a connection to the Gleesons in Fedamore through a Edmund Minihan that married a Mary Gleeson in Troy. Mary's parents were William Gleeson and Ellen Galligan from Fedamore.
Mary immigrated and married Edmund in Troy,NY and then brought her parents over from Ireland
Edmunds family were already there.
I had some distant Gleeson cousins visit in Sept. They are now in their 80's. When they came here in 1965, they were taken to visit Kellys.
I am in touch with Wyndham and know of his Gleesons. I agree with you that the Gleesons in Fedamore are possibly all related but trying to patch them togeher is the problem.
As he said to you there was a Denis Kelly living with his James & Ellen in the 1911 census. So again i would say that there has to be a connection.

Do you think you have anything that can expand any of the above.

Mary Gleeson  born 1849 married Edmund Minihin
Parents William Gleeson and Ellen Galligan(married in manister)

Regards

Thanks for that Christopher. You're right. I should have updated it ages ago as my own research grew.
I did get a lot of help from another Rootschat member which helped me to expand.

Hi Annie,
I dont have him in my family. But know a little about him. In a book called The Widows Penny there is an extract from his diary from during the war.Also a picture of him on horseback.The author of the book met him and got permission to use the diary for his book.He was born i think in Templemore in Co Tipperary.
Dont know if any of this is any use to you.You may know it already.

Hi
I have some gleesons from Fedamore in my family tree. But none that match with your names. You should be able to get records for John Gleeson as i know the Parish records go back to the very early 1800 and some to the seventeen hundreds.I would start by getting your mothers.www.gro.ie would be the wed address to get some. I'm sure if you checked out the Limerick Dioese wsbsite that you can get a contact for the church in Fedamore there. As far as i Know the post office in Fedamore is still owned by Gleesons.I will be happy to compare and help
