Hi, Peggy, I saw your message to Maureen on Wexford Digest vol. 4, Issue 29. I have been looking for ages for Luke Kehoe and Laurence Kavanagh, and this is the first time I have ever seen them mentioned in one place! I am looking for a Luke James Kehoe, b 1792 in Ireland. He was married in the Yarmouth, Nova Scotia, area. His son, Luke Kehoe, married into my mother's family. My mother's grandfather was Lawrence Cavanagh, b. between 1837-1842 somewhere in Ireland. His father was John Cavanagh and his mother was Mary Ryne (not Ryan). They both died on the voyage to Canada around 1849. The witness Luke Kehoe in 1826 could be the Luke James Kehoe I am looking for. The witness Laurence Kavanagh could be grandfather or uncle to my Lawrence Cavanagh (who never learned to read and write so any spelling is possible). I have never heard of Kilaveny/Annacora. Could you please tell me what records survive for that area? Are Roman Catholic baptisms available in that area? I ! will be very grateful for any information. Thank you very much. Shirley Smith Hi Maureen, Don't know if these are your couple, but here goes... Brian (Bryan) Kavanagh married Bridget Murphy 10 August 1826 in the R.C. Church in Kilaveny/Annacorra. witnesses to the Marriage were Luke Kehoe, Patrick Murphy and Laurence Kavanagh. This record was transcribed from microfilm # 4257 at the National Library in Dublin. I also have a Brian Cavanagh married to Mary Carty in 1830 Married in Ballyoughter R.C. Church. I have a Brian Kavanagh and Mary Dempsey of Kilanerin who Baptized Elizabeth, Anne, blank, John, Mary, Alice, Catherine between 1807 and 1821. These couples might be too early for your use, but you can get a clue as to where they might have come from in Wexford. Who knows, maybe they are you next generation back, if they followed a naming pattern. I'm going back and forth between transcriptions for Kilaveny/Annacorra from microfilm and Kilanerin digital records, so I may have more of these Cavanagh/Kavanaghs later in the year (I'm only up to F in Kilanerin and 1850 on Kilaveny/Annacorra). Good luck, Peggy
