hi Beamobhoy
 Thanks for your post about Mary and Patrick Dwane.I think they are the ones that I am looking for .Do you know the date that they moved to Youghal as my father said there was sixteen children in his family.I don't think they would all fit in such a small house that you described.They might have moved there before they had all the children.

                                                    Thanks Mary
ps this will be my third posting

Vicky, very interested in your post as my grandparents came into Youghal with Patrick and Mary Dwane!  If you PM me, I can show you a copy of the 1943-44 Youghal Electors List where it states they were living on Strand Street (Mall) in Youghal at the time.  I go across to Youghal occasionally (less recently due to new arrivals in my family!) and have spoken to lots of people there who remember both my family and the Dwanes.  I believe that there are still descendants of the Dwanes there.  My interest is that I cannot find out where my grandparents were born/came from so your lead about Templemichael may help me.

BEAMOBHOY very interested in your post as my father came from Youghal and his mother and father was Patrick and Mary Dwane.He was one of sixteen and was brought up by the nuns in Youghal . He joined the Royal Navy when he was old enough
so he lost all contact with his family.Sadly he died last year. I think one of his sisters was called maureen. My fathers name was Michale Dwane born 27 12 1922.
hope any one out there can help me trace any of my relation as I have so little to go on
