I knew Charles Horan and his wife who came from Co.Kerry. Both are deceased now, but for many years had a religious goods store in Los Angeles, owned by Charles - and maybe a brotther. Called Horans Religious Goods.This was in the 1950s and 60s. I know Charles daughter lives in Missoula, Montana, but can't remember her married name at the moment. I always thought the Horans were from Kilmoyley/ Ardfert, where my grandmother, Mary Nolan, came from, but am not sure. She was born in 1875. Not sure if this helps. Good luck!
