There is a Galbally petty sessions record of a John Connors residence Annagh (John's parents
residence 1918) that occured 15/07/1908 and he is the defendant. It is a fine for drunkenness so nothing crazy but good to see evidence of Connors in the area at the time.

I keep searching and pouring over various records but it gets confusing.  ;)
It seems there are two Annaghs in Limerick

Annagh, Galbally

Annagh, Clonkeen.

I am not really sure but Barrington’s Bridge and Clonkeen could be interchangeable.

Your family mentioned Annagh, Barrington’s Bridge, I think.

Clonkeen and Galbally are a distance from each other.

If you look at the censuses for Annagh, you will see the two DEDs - Clonkeen and Galbally.

Thank you.. I thought I posted to say I have found my Grandfathers birth certificate and parents. His Father died when he was young. Years later his mother remarried and his name was Michael. They got married in Castleconnell. So it all fell in to please. Thank every one for all your help in this. I stayed up for 48 hrs and it paid off. Xx

 Oh I didn’t see that.

I have just been looking at some folk from Castleconnell as I knew you mentioned it some time ago. :)

Can you point me to the post please. Do you mean his mother married a man name Michael or was the surname Michael.

My phone needs charging but it's Johanna O'Connor Married Michael Supple 1892  that is why my Grandfather called his first son Michael after  his step father. Many thanks for all your help x

Thank you.

I can only see a couple of that name with children in the censuses but no marriage so perhaps not them.
The children do have a mother’s name of O’Connor though.
If it is them, was John illegitimate?
