Howling / Holden Family South Kilkenny

[Holden Kilkenny Ireland]

Currently researching the Holden Family within South Kilkenny, specifically within the old barony of Knocktopher - that is, Kells, Ballyhale, Mullinavat, Killahy, Kilkeasy, Danganbeg and environs. Anyone with knowledge / interest? Specifically interested in period 1690 - 1801. Thanks.

Am also interested in any Holden's from Wexford, town and county? / Callan or even Carlow.

Hoping to attract hits to this post, am looking to expand on my family tree that already covers Holden families from:

- Ballyhemin
- Killahy
- Cloone
- Busherstown
- Shambogh
- Mullinavat (Village of)
- Scart
- Glendonnell
- Smithstown
- Pollrone
- Red Acres
- Hugginstown
- Ballyhale

All of the above in South Kilkenny , but as I mentioned, am very interested in any Holden family extended to the greater County of Kilkenny, Tipperary, Wexford, Carlow etc.

My research also covers name variants including:

- Holding
- Houldin
- Houlding


Thanks

John

Thanks Jack - sorry I have not replied earlier, I didn't get a notice of a reply being posted (typical!) - are these all of the cemeterys in Callan? - or are there others?
Cheers

And thanks Conahy Calling - was aware of this article, but thanks for posting!

I do believe there would be older/smaller cemeteries around Callan, and if I get info I will post it.
