Sorry we haven't been able to help you so far on this one. 

Have you made any progress,  or do you have any further details that could help someone to find what you are looking for?

Look forward to hearing from you.

Best wishes

Hiya,

Would you please clarify the question ??? Are these guys living cousins of yours or are they cousins to one another ??? Two of the names you are seeking..Moriarty and O'Sullivan are mentioned in this article..
Bere Peninsula Families Co. Cork..Introduction to Bere Island Parish. http://www.rootsweb.com/~irish/igsi_published/berehave/bi-intro.htm The Bere Island Historical, Cultural & Craft Association, Bere Island, Castletownbere might be able ti give you some information. There is also the Beara Historical Society, Corney Murphy, NY., East End Castletownbere... worth a try too

All the Best, Chris

The author of the article on Bere Island, Riobard O'Dwyer, is the one to contact for Bere Island or the Beara Peninsula in general. Unfortunately, he's going to retire from genealogical research this year. 

Check http://www.rootsweb.com/~irish/igsi_published/berehave/odwyer.htm. He may still have copies of his Bere Island book.

Hi HW & Lara3145,

Bantry Bay O'SULLIVANs (2 families) & LOWNEYs from my wife's side are available on my website. This research was "inherited" from my late father-in-law and he made little progress. Ditto myself due to a lack of records.
Feel free to email me if you think we have some common families.

Regards,
Mark

Hi Kate I don't know much about  my people in Ireland except that my 2xgreat grandfather was Patrick Walsh from Donoraille Cork he was with the army on Bere Island and met my 2xgreat grandmother Margaret Mary Lowney  and they came to  Fremantle ASustralia in 1852 , Margaret Mary's mother was a McAuliffe and the Lowneys are  a branch of the O'Sullivans  , I don't think I have any Murphy's though Kate  thanks for the message will file it and maybe one day find we are connected somehow Kind Regards Lara
