Just to let you know I got the marriage cert & confimed the name of my g-g grandmother.  Thanks for all your help.

I now also know my ggg grandfathers' name is William Walsh, but unfortunately I can't make out the name of the place they are from.  I think it is Manor, Co Kilkenny.

Has anyone ever heard off a place called Manor in Co Kilkenny?

Hi There
I know your query is over a year old, but I live next door to Drumcannon graveyard and the inscriptions are available at:

Thanks Eamonn,

I am looking from my relatives who are definately buried in Drumcannon because I found the death notice in the paper from 1917.
The family name is Quan or Quann.  In the Griffith Valuation in 1850 John Quan is listed on a 40 acre holding in Drumcannon but were gone by 1901 census.
Do you know your farming neighbours there in Drumcannon?  If you do, could you enquire from the older generation did they ever hear of Quans.  I'd love to know exactly where they lived & any information at all.

Thanks & Regards,
Mags
