I have recently come into a old hand written family history titled "Outline of the O'Connor Family History." I have no idea who wrote it but I thought the first few paragraphs might help somone. "For several generations the O'Connors worked a large tract of land under an absentee landlord in England in that part of County Kerry called Sussa a few miles for the town of Cabirsiteen. When "The Land Reform Act" restored the premises to the tennants, a part of that section lying generally between Killarney and the Macklicuddy Mountain Range passed to family of O'Connor. This section of land eventually became vested in two brothers-one belived to be Patrick, and the otherJeremiah(or Dermid) known as"Dermid au Cipeen"for his skill in the use of the shillalih." This history is of the Dermid family. I believe I am of the Patrick family and if anyone has any information on this family I would love to hear it. If this sound like it may help you e-Mail me with what you are looking for and I will try to help. This is many pages hand written and also I will be away for a few day. Thanks Joe O'Connor >> Hi Joe, Do you have a time period here ? Some of us have O'Connors that left before 1925, some around the famine and others later, not to mention in between. Sounds like some great info for some happy family. Perhaps it could be shared on a web site ? Ley K. O'Connor
