Duntocher families

[Marie Kelly]

Hi,
not sure where to start here. Finding this site very interesting. My Dad stayed in Duntocher all his life, his name was Frank Kelly, he had 2 sisters and 1 brother who died in 1935. His mother was Agnes Cassidy, died in 1993 and his father was Patrick Kelly who died in 1942.
I read a post about someone knowing Annie Cassidy, I'm sure that would be my Dads Auntie.
Dad stayed in Carleith Ave and Old Street in Duntocher. Then they moved to Hillend Cresc.
Anyone know them?
Would be good to know more about my Dads childhood as he recently passed away. I loved him telling all his stories...mostly football!!
Thanks
Marie

Wow!  Nice lot of Cassidy's and other Duntocher names there! 

My Mother's great friend at St. Mary's school in the 1930's was Annie Cassidy - they used to tease each other by finding worms and chasing one another. 
Much better than video games - don't you agree?  LOL! 

Hi Debbie,
my Dads mother was Agnes Cassidy from Duntocher and she had a sister Annie. Not sure if it's the same person or not.

My mother was from Duntocher too.  She was the daughter of Denis O'Connor from Tralee (died 1933) and Mary Cassidy (b. 19.8.1872). Her aunt was Agnes Cassidy ( b. 7.4.1874) who married Joseph McNeil in 1926 and they kept a shop; there was also a brother, Patrick...............and another brother, Francis Cassidy, b. 7.8.1883, who was illegitimate. I'm curious to know what happened to Francis............he married a Maggie Callachan 9.4.1904, and they had twin babies Kate and Mary 7.10.1904.  Kate died a few weeks old, but I can't trace what happened to Mary, or to Francis and Maggie.  They all lived in Old Street. Anyone know?

Hi Billy,

How do you know Frank?

Are you related to the Williams?

Have an idea who you are.
