Hurley's of Ballycommane,Durrus

[Casa23]

Hi
I'm trying to find any information about my grandmother's family and would really appreciate any help given.
My grandmother was Mary Hurley her father was called John (a farmer), her mother's name unknown. She had 6 brothers, Jeremiah,John,Daniel,James,Michael and Joseph.Jeremiah,John and Daniel left Ireland between 1904-1906 for Boston USA.
Many thanks

Parish records for this area are free to view on www.irishgenealogy.ie

They are under the parish of MUINTERVARA unfortunately they seem to only cover as far as 1880 right before the children were born in 1901 Census.

Did any of the Hurley's marry before 1915 in Boston?

Casa23. There is a marriage record for a John Hurley to a Catherine Duggan
April-May-June 1882 Reg District Bantry. Vol 5 Page 21.
As John Hurleys eldest son Jeremiah was born c. 1884 (going by census age) thought this may be a possibility.
There is also a Death registered for a John Hurley Reg District Bantry, Ap-Ma-Jun 1915 age 62 born c 1853 which corresponds with age John gives in 1901 census. Vol 5 Page 15
