Thanks so much (underlined) for all the info you sent on the Keatings, Whittys, etc. I need more post-1853 info to check the names. Wexford names are all so similar. i was glad to get more info on the Whittys especially as that is the name under siege in this family line at present. A Catherine Whitty was gggrandmother and I believe she had brother James. Thomas also appears in that family so you sent much to ponder. Again my appreciation for taking the time to look up those names.
