Hello Kerry Researchers: My great grandparents were Michael McDonnell and Mary Quirk. They would have been born about 1830. They lived in Listowel but I do not know where they were born nor when Michael died. He was not in the 1901 census and was long dead at the time of Mary's death in 1913. Their son Michael was a cattle dealer and butcher in Listowel, born in 1857 and died in 1914 in Bedford. His son Michael (known as Anthony) was my father, born and raised in Bedford, Listowel. I cannot find my great grandparents in the Kerry Church Records, at least not in Listowel or any mention of their marriage. They probably married about 1855 and also had a daughter called Anne. Siblings of Mary Quirk were: Catherine, James, Michael and Jeremiah. If anyone has a connection or information on this family, I would be most appreciative. Thanks much, Anne
