Kathleen O'Connell (murdered young?) M: Alice Kennedy; F:Patrick O'Connell

[Prue Heron]

Hi.  A friend is looking for ancestors in Cork/Limerick areas of Ireland. In particular Kathleen O'Connell (they were said to come form Charleville but I can't find anything.)  Mother as above,  Kennedy and father Patrick O'Connell (surname edited.. 20:42 20/7/19).  Kathleen was allegedly murdered as a young girl/teenager and I expected there would be a newspaper report but can find nothing.  Her death would have been around the 1916 era they have assessed from times of family visits back to Ireland and the black and tan era.  They would dearly like to find her grave to visit.  Any hints please...

There's a Patrick Connell born 9 June 1905 at Foxhall (not far from Charleville). Parents Patrick Connell and wife Mary Kennedy.

Prue,

You have quoted your first post but removed Alice. Is that right?

There is this family of Foxhall - Father Patrick and Mother, Mary Kennedy

Sorry, Shaun,
It took me a while cross checking and I didn’t see your post.

Here is that family in 1911 - 6 children born and 5 living but 4 on the census.

This looks like the family in 1901

I did find that but haven't linked them to the thread yet but there is Arthur in 1897, then according to 1901 it is Mary Ann who was born 1900.

Arthur is missing in 1911 but there should be another child.
Perhaps they lost a child between Arthur and Mary Ann.

I was hoping that Prue might be able to confirm something about the family.

Another point, is that there are more children in this family than are recalled

Oh no!  what a coincidence - back to the drawing board.  About to get death cert to see if any more clues on there (Kate train victim),
