Dooley,
Thanks very much for that...
I must dig out the research I was doing on this family to see whether this might be an important new piece of the tree.  Certainly the forename and surname and the location look entirely correct.
Very best wishes, keith

re: Maurice Kepple/Eliz Dooly

You might try emailing the Cork County Library to see if they have any information about children of these two.

They have an index of baptism and marriage records of the Cathedral.

I think this email address would work

Reference.Library@CorkCoCo.ie

Good luck.

PS re: Maurice Kepple/Eliz Dooly

at irishgenealogy.ie I found one child, Catherine, born in 1846.  There were also a few other Kepple entries, as well.

So the North Cathedral may not have anything on other children.  Still worth checking with the library though.

Hi Keith,

I beilieve that William Keeple was my great grandfather. All I know is that he was stationed in India with his wife. My grandmother Mary was born in Wellington, India, before she and her mother moved back to Ireland. William was beilived MIA or dead for years before he returned himself. Unfortunatly I know little else about him.

I would be delighted if you could pass on any information you have on him. I have just started looking into my family tree and I would love to learn more about William's Military Records.

Regards
Shane Cahalane

Hi, Shane,
And welcome to Rootschat!  And I have to tell you that you ought to delete your e-mail address from here as it compromises your privacy.  However, I've made a quick note of it and will be in touch with you through my own e-mail very shortly.
I'm also very happy when a thread I've started suddenly comes back to life after lying dormant for a while - in this case about two and a half years.  And I'm very interested in the details of your great-grandfather that you've already begun to tell us about on here.  Supposed missing in action, then turning up back in his native Ireland a few years later - sounds like quite a story there!
Regards, keith
