Hi all, No domes fell on Ray Marshall's dome? Now that was a relief to hear... We enjoy those descriptive research stories, and good advice. Best wishes for the holidays and a peaceful new year, Barb Glassel

Yes, to Ray and all the Kerry Listers- A very Happy and Merry Christmas to you all!

A Holy & Happy Christmas to you Ray in Minneapolis and to all Kerry Listers. Ray: My g-grandparents Andrew Fogarty, baptized in Lixnaw Parish Nov. 1827 and Mary Callaghan supposedly of Tralee, were the first couple married in Sacred Heart Parish, Paris, On., Canada on November 15, 1852. Andrew's parents John and Elizabeth (Costello) were from Aghabeg. Andrew's sister Johanna also married in Paris, ON. to William Patrick Moriarty. Nothing more is known about Andrew's brothers Matthew and John. Mary Callaghan's parents were Patrick and Mary (Howard). Her only brother known was Owen Eugene, who also came to Ontario. Should you be browsing that website at your leisure,( my visual impairment makes it difficult) I would be pleased if you came across any information on Andrew's missing brothers. We do believe the Fogarty name originated in Tipperary, but don't know where either of their parents were married. Any help would be appreciated.

You may have seen this already but this is the census 1911 entry for the family of Patrick Brown b. 15 Aug 1842 parents Maurice Brown and Margaret Slattery. It may give some clues to follow up on. http://www.census.nationalarchives.ie/pages/1911/Kerry/Castlegregory/Kilshannig_Town/294881/ Regards Clare ----- Original Message ----- From: "Maureen Dabinett" <[email protected]> To: <[email protected]> Sent: Wednesday, December 01, 2010 8:52 PM Subject: [IRL-KERRY] Maurice Brown > > > Looking for descendants of Maurice Brown and Margaret Slattery of > Killshannig Kerry .Their son Maurice Brown and wife Catherine Hussey came > to New Zealand in 1875. > _______________ > --------------- > > Policies of the IRL-Kerry List: > http://www.rootsweb.ancestry.com/~irlker/mailing.html > To unsubscribe from the list, please send an email to > [email protected] with the word 'unsubscribe' without the > quotes in the subject and the body of the message. > > To subscribe to the Digest version of the list, please send an email to > [email protected] with the word 'subscribe' without the > quotes in the subject and the body of the message. > > To visit the County Kerry Research and Resources Page go to: > http://www.rootsweb.ancestry.com/~irlker/ > > Share your stuff!

Hi Kathleen, This is probably not connected to your group, but I thought I would throw it out here anyway, just in case it rings a bell with someone...... My great-grandmother was Ellen Kerwin. This is what I have on the family. All information is from US census records from Illinois. John Kerwin, b abt 1798 Ireland               his wife Bridget ?       b abt 1810 Ireland children Michael b abt 1839 New York Margaret b abt 1841 New York Ellen b abt 1843 Canada John b abt 1845 Canada William b abt 1847 Canada Mary Ann b 1850 Illinois I have not been able to determine any specific locations in Ireland, NY, or Canada. The Illinois location is around Joliet, Will County, IL. Thanks, Larry Talbot in cold but clear Wisconsin. ________________________________ From: Kathleen Kerwin <[email protected]> To: [email protected] Sent: Wed, December 8, 2010 6:08:55 PM Subject: [IRL-KERRY] Michael O'Sullivan 1800 My name is Kathleen Sullivan Kerwin.  My family were famine immigrants from County Cork.

I just found a new South Irish project in FTDNA. They are looking for the unique SNP for the South Irish; see http://www.familytreedna.com/project-join-request.aspx?group=R-L21_South_Irish. Kathleen.

Hi List Long time since I mentioned my Daniel Sullivan, so time to update what I have found and see if we can find a connection with the parents or grandparents now. Father of Daniel Sullivan of Cahersiveen is Timothy Sullivan born abt. 1785 Mother of Daniel is Ellen Driscoll 1787 County Kerry. Timothy Sullivan is the son of Timothy Sullivan born abt, 1765 of Killarney and Mary Roche born abt. 1765 and married in 1784 in Killarney Ellen Driscoll is the daughter of John Driscoll and Johanna Connell. Can anyone connect to these families? Liz - still searching County Kerry's records.

Liz, I have some Sullivans intermarrried with my DENNEHY in the Cahersiveen area. To know if they connect with yours you would have to trace the Daniel and Timothy down to about the 1850s, because that is about as far back as i et in my data. I realize of course how common these names are so they recur from generatin to generation, but the spouse name helps make connections.

List, Is anybody familiar with the surname Malvey? I thought it was a misspelling of Falvey but there are too many records for Malvey's. I was wondering if it had a variant like so many other surnames. Thanks for any help. Helen

Why do I have to download the digest? My virus protection won't allow it

I resubscribed after the upset with AOL. I now receive the Digest header etc. but there is no mail attached. What can I do to receive the messages again? Thanks. Rosemary

Hi - I'm new to the Kerry List, although on other ones. I have been having a problem with finding a village. The name shown on a Death Certificate is "Lerveen" but I have been assured that it is not in County Cork so I decided I would try the surrounding counties in the hope that it occurred there. It would appear to have been large enough to have a church/chapel as my husband's ggggrandfather was married there c.1830. I read that there was a "Creveen" in Kerry - could this possibly be what I am looking for? Any help gratefully received. TIA Kay - in Northern NSW, Australia.

I cannot download the digest. Why is it not sent the regular way?
