Kiltallagh catholic church is about 3 miles east of Castlemaine village which is on road to Ballyfinane. Your friend could put note up there and also in Keel church which is in village of Boolteens which is about 5 miles west of castlemaine on road to Inch/Dingle. Dont think there is a church in Ballyfinane but there is one in Firies. Maybe putting up a note there and another one in Milltown would cover area. Also postoffices and large shops often have large notice boards.

But which Church?? My thinking is if it worked with one of our O'Connor rootsweb folk it might work for me also. I have found family birth's and marriages in two Parish's so far. Marriage for the parents of Maurice below Thomas O'Connor and Elizabeth Teahan married in Kiltallagh in 1842. One child baptised there , Catherine 26 3 1859. Another daughter Mary was baptised 30 3 1846 in Killeentierna . Maurice O'Connor's birth app 1854 I have been unable to find. There may have been others but so far that is all I have I do not think there is a church in Ballyfinnane where they are believed to have come from. I know that Killtallagh is in Castlemaine parish , so which other churches could they have used What I am trying to say is where do you think they would have gone to Mass each Sunday. Any thoughts at all . Trish in Sydney O'Connor's and Teahans from Ballfinnane and Currow,son Maurice went to New Zealand also Cournane and Bowler from Cahersiveen ,daughter Mary Frances married Maurice in NZ 1881 ------------------------------- To unsubscribe from the list, please send an email to IRL-KERRY-request@rootsweb.com with the word 'unsubscribe' without the quotes in the subject and the body of the message ___________________________________________________________ Support the World Aids Awareness campaign this month with Yahoo!
