Hi Bill - This Lowney information is very interesting/  However I didn't see any reference to the John Lowney that immigrated to Upper Peninsula in Michigan with his wife Margaret and Chiuldren John and Mary ca 1878.  He later remarried and had 5 more children.  I have  information on the descendants. I  am his great granddaughter Patricia Carroll Lowney Gregory. His sons John and Dan came to Folsom, California ca 1912-1918.  The following is from Riobard research. John Lowney & Margaret O'Sullivan (Suonish)(Allihies) John, a Miner and a native of the townland of Allihies, was son of Michael Lowney, a Miner. Margaret, who was living in Coom prior to her marriage, was daughter of Daniel O'Sullivan (Suonish), a Miner.   Children: John (Apr. 1868), Mary (Mar1870, Mary as mother). WHO WERE MY ANCESTORS? Genealogy (Family Trees) Of The Allihies (Copper Mines) Parish, County Cork, Ireland.  Riobard O'Dwyer N.T. Family lore  revealed   that John 'Died in the Mine' (Copper Country, Houghton Co., MI) apparently in an accident sometime between 1892 and 1900.  The Census of 1900 shows his 2nd wife, Katheryn as 'Head of the House' w/seven children at home.  MTU did not find an accident report, and I wondered if you might have some reference  in your files of this type of accident occurring between 1892-1900.  The Lowney family lived first in Calumet and then in Houghton, MI.    Thank you!

Hello Patty, all, I'm sure everyone misses things. Since I don't have any control over the external website I posted the link to, I can't edit it. But there may be contact information for the site owner there if you wish to inform them of the oversights. Given that the site is attempting to provide a comprehensive listing of the Lowneys from Beara, I feel sure they'd appreciate having this information.
