Hello, thankyou for the opportunity. Recently very good friends asked for my names of interest at the Nenagh Library, in the Heritage Centre, where an Archivist found an entry but she didnt give a date or if birth or baptism. The next day the Archivist was off work & my friends who were on holiday were unable to stay any longer in Nenagh. The information from the Archivist was..."Ally KENNEDY, Father Hugh Kennedy, Mother Mary LAHY, Townland of GARRANE. Sponsors Malachy Dwyre and Kate Quirk" My great grandmother married & died in Victoria Australia...... Alice Kennedy born c1834 "this side of Nana", her father Hugh Kennedy & mother Mary Lahey.....this was Alice's information on her marriage certificate. Is anyone able to help me with that record for Ally Kennedy please & the year that the event happened, or if anyone recognises these names in their family. Kind regards & thankyou for reading. Deirdre.
Hello, I would like to ask for some more help please. I am so pleased to have the baptisms of Alice 'Ally' Kennedy with parents Hugh Kennedy & Mary Lahy, thanks to Clare & another. I have purchased that information showing her Baptism date of 25 February 1836, but the printed information does not show a church name. I have googled for a R/C Church in the townland of Garrane, and the Parish of Toomevara but didn't come up with a church. Does anyone know the area that they might know the name of an old RC Church that would have been in the area 1836 please. Or would a baptism in 1836 have been held at Nenagh? Thanks for reading, Regards Deirdre "Ally KENNEDY, Father Hugh Kennedy, Mother Mary LAHY, Townland of GARRANE. Sponsors Malachy Dwyre and Kate Quirk"
