Hello Deborah, all, I know St. Mullins, in the south of County Carlow, is rife with Kavanaghs (of various spellings). There are a great many of them buried in the cemetery of the old St. Mullins church. Do you have any particular given names, dates of birth, family stories, etc...? I haven't come across the names Large and Bowe in St. Mullins, though that's not saying they might not have passed through or even lived there.
