With the outbreak of the Rebellion of 1798, a group of republican activists, or patriots, set seige to the main Crown building in the locality. Some years ago. I met Mr. Kelly in the town square, next to the old water pump. Nudging his foot against a small monument, he said, " Your family had a lot to do with this rebellion.."Well, I knew about that in a vague, offish kind of way. "They were the ones who blew up the courthouse," said Kelly. Well, having taught a course in Modern European History for thirty eight years, I was quite skeptical. So, off we rode to the old Quaker Library.There, on several tables, were some of the original interrogations, made in the months after the insurrection, at least one of them implicating Ann Salmon, Michael Salmon and Edward Salmon in the destruction of the building. Interestingly, their names do not appear on the transportation lists. Like so many of the rural Irish, they simply disappeared into an unforgiving black hole.

I am new to this list and researching my great-great grandparents Michael Keenan from Ballysax, Co. Kildare who married a Catherine or an Annie Farrell from County Kildare. They moved to Glandore, Co. Cork around the 1840s. They had two children, James and Andy. Andy became a priest and lived in America and James married in Glandore and had 11 children. Would dearly love to find out if anyone has any connection with this branch of the Keenan family Kathleen Daly ----------------------------------------------------------------- Find the home of your dreams with eircom net property Sign up for email alerts now http://www.eircom.net/propertyalerts

Here is a link to photos of Ellis Island during its operation. Most are photos of Ellis Island itself, but there are group and individual photos of people. Unfortunately there are none titled "Irish woman and children" or such but it is worth a look at.
