Hi Gail, Just wanted to mention that the Ruane name is also found in the Foxford area of Mayo. When I was there this summer, I actually met a Vincent Ruane who had purchased the property which was once owned by my ancestors. He said that his family had lived on the other side of the main road. In the census of 1901, there is a John Ruane in Belgarrow, a Mary and Patrick in Cloonmung, and a Mary,Julia, Anne,Garrett, William, Martin, Michael,Catherine,Sabina,another William, Bridget,James, Mary, Edward, and another James in Rinnanany. I hope this helps you or maybe someone else on the list looking for this family name. Good luck, Vicky
