From “Memory Lane,” THE SHANNONSIDE JOURNAL, 1994, by the Shannonside Journal
Committee, page 121:
Richard Rahilly was the father of the ORahilly who died 1916 in Moore Lane, Dublin
Hi Brendan, thanks for this. I had seen the RTE documentary on the O’Rahilly, so it is good to note this.
Thanks for this. I expect the one or both of the Brassils mentioned are related to my ancestors John and William Brassil who emigrated from Ballylongford in 1812. I know their father Michael Brassil still lived in Ballylongford in 1834. He was a cooper, a profession I did not see mentioned in the list of trades.
Any thoughts or information about whether Killelton townland in Iraghticonnor near Carrigafoyle Castle, just outside Ballylongford, is related to the gentry Kilelton (one l) mentioned above. Just a coincidence? I’ve also seen Killelton townland in Corkaguiny barony and Killeton townland (no l between e and t) as the place in Iraghticonnor/Aghavallen along the Shannon estuary. Thanks
Mark, there is no townland in Kerry called ‘Kilelton’ (with one ‘l’). You are correct in saying there are two with a double ‘l’. One is in the Civil Parish of Kilgobbin in the Barony of Corgaguiny and the the other in the Civil Parish of Aghavallen, Barony of Iraghticonnor. The ‘Hickies of Killelton’ are probably the gentry that you mention- you can see that they were large subscribers to the Famine Relief Committee in Ballylongford 1n 1847/48.
Interesting reading about Kilelton and the the Hickies of Kilelton House. My Hickeys were tenants of Hickie of Kileton House, and I assume were unrelated as they are chronicled in birth, death and marriage records alternately as farm laborers, boatmen and fishermen residing in either Cloonaman or Kilelton townlonds. The last of my Hickeys in Ballylongford (to my knowledge) was Margaret Hickey Broderick who resided at Kilelton, dying around 1920.
I’m looking for a Daniel Mulvihill born 1855 ballylongford area but moved to mountmellick at some stage and married a Mary McCormack and had 4 or 5 sons.
Eleanor, ideally you would need to know Daniel Mulvihill’s parents or at least his father’s name. There are a number of Daniel Mulvihills recorded in various townlands baptised in Ballylongford. I would suggest, once you have the father’s name, logging onto http://www.IrishGenealogy.ie and go to Church Records. Unfortunately many of the Ballylongford records are missing or mutilated, 1855 being one of the missing ones.
we think his fathers name name may have been cornelius cause his first son was cornelius. But thank you for your help.
I am a descendant of the Fitzell family. My great great grandmother was Sophia Fitzell the daughter of George Fitzell and Ellen Fitzell (nee Power). Sophia Married into the Walsh family. She married John Walsh. She had my grandfather Joseph John Walsh and several other children, but died in July 1941. John Walsh then remarried. He lived until the late 1980s.
Nicky its great to have this history. And as you know George Fitzgell was the son of Peter Fitzell of Lislaughtin Abbey and Ellen Power was the daughter of Patrick Power of Sallen. The address of the seven Fitzell children baptised is Saleen. Thank you for your comment.
I am searchng for the O’Shaughnessy family who lived near Ballylongford, in Kilgarvan townland I think. Jeremiah and his wife Ellen (Hurley) were married in 1839 and had several children before they left for the USA in 1849.
Any information would be most appreciated.
Richard O’Shaughnessy
Richard, yes I have found baptisms of four children – Anastasia (1840), Jeremiah (1843), Michael (1846), Honora (1848).
Hello Kay,
Thank you for your reply. It has taken me a long time to return to this site and I am delighted to hear from you.
I have found those baptisms too at Irishgenealogy.ie and had the opportunity to visit Jeremiah and Ellen’s townland of Carhoonakineely.in summer of 2017.
I am now trying to find where Jeremiah came from , in County Limerick, before he settled in Kerry and met Ellen Hurley.
Alos trying to learn more about Ellen Hurley’s family from Townland Kilgarvan
It is rewarding to pursue my roots and I thank you for your help.
Richard
Joanna Brassell married Michael Finucane. Had a daughter Mary Ann Finucane born 1852 ish and died in the USA 1917.
Eieen, I found Mary Finucane’s baptism on 1st November 1851 in Ballylongford. She would not have been called ‘Mary Ann’ in the baptismal records. I will send it to your email address.
Kay
Hi Kay, TY I finally found out how to get into this area. Do you know any thing more on Joanne Brassil/Brassell and Mary Finucane.
My email address is kolkana@twc.com
Thank you soooo much. Eileen
Eileen, I already sent you a copy fo the baptismal record of Mary Finucate in March last. daughter of Michael Finucane and Joanna Brassil.
Kay
I’m wondering if there are any residents by the name of Breen still living in Ballylongford. My great grandmother’s name was
Catherine Breen. She had a twin sister named Elizabeth. They were born in 1881
Karen, the only way you could find present day residents in Kerry (or anywhere in Ireland) is to check the local Register of Electors or if they had a landline phonebook and there s one Margaret Breen, Lenamore, Ballylongford. But that is only one person – you would need to know what townland in Ballylongford Catholic Parish your great grandmother was from. And then there is the complication, that most people have given up on landlines and only use mobiles – and no telephone directory for mobiles.
I took a chance and looked up Catherine and Elizabeth Breen were daughters of Eugene Breen and Margaret Keane. They were baptised on 11 June 1876 (not 1881). Four more children are listed and one of them has the address as ‘Lenamore, Ballylongford’. So it looks like you have hit gold!
Kay
In reply to my request for finding Residents by the name of Breen in Ballylongford.
Where would I find the local Register of Electors you mentioned in your reply to me April 22 2017
Karen, the only places that I know you could get the Electoral Register is in local libraries in Kerry. If you are outside of Ireland, I expect the best thing would be to write to Kerry County Council and ask if they could supply you with Registers\
I am also a granddaughter of Katherine Breen whose had a twin sister Elizabeth Breen. I would be happy to share the information I have on the Breen Family that emigrated to the States
Joan, thank you for this comment. I get bogged down myself every so often with the number of enquiries and just can’t get around to replying to everyone immediately – I usually get there eventually. If you would point me in the direction of the other equirer on the Breen name I can put you both in touch. Kay
Hello, writing on behalf of my mother inlaw, Lucy Eileen Chilvers (Meehan) resident of Oak Lawn, Illinois – Daughter of Lucy Catherine Breen b:03.09.1911, Grand daughter of John Eugene Breen b: 12.03.1879 (& Margaret Mary Coakley Breen b: 06.24.1881) – great grand daughter of Eugene Breen & Margaret Keane Breen.
A little late to be doing this type of research, but we will be in Ireland next week.
Would love to learn of any long lost relatives!!!!
We will be spending 2 weeks traveling around Ireland….. if anyone is related, please reach out,!
Chris, I know I am good but I don’t have magic powers! You would need to have started this ages ago if you wanted to get the exact location, land, possible relatives etc. Was John Breen born in Ballylongford or is it Kerry? As no Irish person new their exact dates of birth, what proof have you for the birth date of 12rh March 1879? There was a John Breen, son of Eugene Breen/Margaret Keane baptised in Ballylongford on 6 December 1879. Their address is Bridge St., Ballylongford. My advice at this stage is to call into Kennelly’s Pub in Ballylongford and ask them if they would know Breens or if they could recommend an older person in the area who might know.
When you get home, if you want me to follow the ancestral trail back, just let me know. Kay
Thank you for your suggestions. We ended up not going there; however, we did track down a long distant cousin in the town of Faha near Kilarney! Very cool!
Thanks again
My Great-great grand-father was Jeremiah Enright (blacksmith), his son Michael (Mick) Enright (blacksmith) was my great grand-father. Mick Enright married an Ahern. They had a bunch which included my grand mother Mary (Ahern) Enright who migrated to Chicago USA in 1900 at age 17-18. She married James Hayes from Cloonlahard upper in West Limerick who migrated to Chicago USA in 1899. James was a Chicago policeman from 1906 to 1945, died in 1966 at 86 yrs old. James and Mary had 7 kids one of which was my dad Joeseph Michael Hayes (Bud) born in Chicago in 1919 died in 1962. And here, I Michael, Born 1948 sit in the foothills of Rocky Mountains, in Colorado USA.
Hallo, I have a postal item addressed to a Miss Annie Hayes at 62 Pomeroy Road, Pittsfield, Massachusetts. Posted on 6 April 1899 and arrived there 15 April. I wondered if your James Hayes might be a relative of Annie. I can email a scan of the letter of you like. At the time, Annie was in the care of a Mr Oliver Peck.
My GG Grandmother was Mary Enright, of Carhunakilla, Ballylongford, who married Thomas Geran (or Guerin/Guyrin) in 1842 there. The witness at her wedding was a John Enright. I do not know his connection to her, perhaps a father or brother? But I am wondering if the blacksmiths Jeremiah or Mick Enright may have been related to her in some way?Any information about this family would be appreciated.
My grandfather was Patrick Joseph Shanahan born 1895 and was a tailor from Ballylongford. His father was Patrick Shanahan (died 1909 at 54 years old), also a tailor who was married to Johanna McCabe. The math doesn’t work for him being the tailor in 1861 as he would have only been 6 years old.His father , my great great grandfather was John Shanahan who was married to (H)elen Sullivan. Could the dates or info from 1861 be wrong on Patrick Shanahan listed as the tailor or could there have been another Patrick Shanahan, tailor not related to me?
Michael, thank you for your comment. Firstly I am not sure where you saw ‘Patrick Shanahan’ listed as a Tailor in 1861 – you don’t mention your source. Secondly very few Irish people knew (or cared about) their year/date of birth in the nineteenth century so you can be sure that age 54 is not accurate on the death certificate.
The next mystery is that I have checked the births in Ballylongford to John Shanahan and Helen Sullivan and there are none listed as Patrick. Their first child Maurice was born in 1861. Their other children listed are Ellen 1862, Cornelius 1864, Thomas 1866, John 1866(?), Stephen 1867, Michael 1873.
I was referencing the above article from “memory lane” the Shannonside Journal 1994.
Thanks for your response Kay. I will be in Kerry tomorrow 9 Aug for 8 days and will visit Ballylongford and try to find more info about my family and see if I have any relatives left in the area. Would you have any helpful advise for a lost son of Ireland?
Michael, sorry I am only getting around to this now and I know you are in Kerry already. I would just advise that you to try and get hold of my book Finding Your Ancestors in Kerry. It should be in Woulfe’s Bookshop, Church St, Listowel. Also any book you can find there that will give you an idea of the history of North Kerry. Best of luck and get back to me on your return if you are still stuck.
Does anyone know of Thomas Kennelly and / or Catherine O’Connor ? They were married in Ballylongford in 1823.
Sorry I meant to say Timothy Kennelly
Yes, my wife’s family is Kennelly who descend from Timothy and Catherine. They emigrated to Georgia in America and ended up in Iowa. They had several children in Ireland and then more in Georgia. We are at a brick wall, however, to learn more about Timothy and who is parents might have been and where they lived., specifically.
My great grandmother was Hanoria Scanlan ,daughter of Michael Scanlan and Catherine Enright, born in 1860 in Ballylongford . She married a Giles Cook ,a Royal Marine in the Catholic Church at Ballylongford in 1882.On her marriage cert it shows her as a servant . I believe she was one ofseveral children ,most of whom emigrated to America . .She returned to Plymouth with her husband and our family have lived here ever since / I wonder if there are still any relatives living there now and where they would have been buried
Maureen, Honora was actually born 30 March 1862 in Moyvane, which is an adjoining parish. There were twelve children recorded in the family. I will reply to your your email address. Kay
My GG Grandmother, Mary Enright, who married Thomas Geran in Carhunnakilla, Ballylongford, in 1842, had a daughter she named Catherine. I am wondering if perhaps the Catherine Enright you mentioned might have been Mary’s sister/niece or some other connection. I don’t know the names of Mary’s parents but there was a John Enright who was witness at her wedding.
Any information would be appreciated.
Does anyone have information on my Grandfather John Dee.? He had brothers names Dennis,Paddy, Micky,Jimmy,Eddie Joe and sisters Brideg,Eileen and Mary.Thank You
John, do you have any dates for the births for the births mentioned?
Hello, There was a Paul Dee born January 15, 1938
John, because of Data Protection restrictions, we cannot access birth dates less than 100 years ago. If you have Paul’s father’s details we could look him up. See http://www.IrishGenealogy.ie – Church Recods. Kay
I know the dee family my daughter married to Paul’s son didn’t know John was married I grew up next door to them
He also had a brother named Paul Dee, which is my grandfather. So we must be cousins!
Have relatives by those names, where did your grandfather live and was he married, please reply and I fill try to give you more information. It may not be the same family.
I’m looking to find where my grandfathers family is from and if there is any family members still alive, if so where might they be residing. Last name is Rahilly.
Thank you
Keith, Rahilly is a well known name in Ballylonford. I will send you a Query Form separately to get relevant details.
I recently discovered that my ancestors were from Ballylongford, and just now came upon your site, which I found very interesting. I was surprised to see so many Enrights in your entry about Ballylongford. They are listed as Grocers and other tradespeople in 1861. My ancestor was Mary Enright but I haven’t found her parents’ names yet. She married Thomas Guerin (also spelled Geran, Guyrin, Guyrn, etc,) in 1842 in Ballylongford. I do not know where his family lived. But I know of two daughters, Catherine, born in 1843 and Mary, born in either 1849 or 1853. This daughter, Mary Guyrin/Guerin came to New York. An odd coincidence is that Mary became a Grocer in New York City.
So many Enrights in Ballylongford in 1861! I am a descendant of Mary Enright, born ca. 1820. Her daughter, Mary Geran (Guyrin) b. ca.1850, emigrated either with her family or as an adult, and lived in NYC. I am wondering if there are Enrights still living in Ballylongford?
Mary, I am quite sure that there are. Its just not possible to list them – we have to adhere to Data Protection Rules. If you just enter ‘Enright Ballylongford’ into Google you will see lots of entries and go from there is my advice.
My great grandfather Edmond O’Connor is not mentioned. He was the butcher for the village. His shop was where Kennelly garage is now. He and his son Patrick were known as the burly connors. Anyone have or have heard any stories on the.
Have been looking for long time always hit a wall. Edward Sweeney and brother James Sons of Edmond Sweeney? any help would be great!
It would be a good idea to include oossible dates of birth or any other information – location etc. that you might have.
My grandmother Mary Ellen Walsh lived in Ballylongford and was born on December 5, 1870. She emigrated to Chicago in 1895. I have been unable to find any record of her online. I would most especially like to find her parents’ names or any other information.
Timothy, you need to give me more information and I can have a look. What was her mother’s maiden name? Are you absolutely certain of the birth date or is it a guess? (like most 19th century Irish birth dates!) And the last thing I would say is that Irish people only had one ‘christian’ name given to them at baptism/birth for most of the 19th century. She would have taken on the name ‘Ellen’ after getting to the U.S., when she would have noticed it was the norm.
Please get the book “Remembering Ahanagran” The book was written of the Walsh family and showed a Mary Walsh born of 1870. It also talked of the family moving to Chicago. She, Sara Walsh was born in Ahanagran, Ballyylongford Kerry.
I agree with Michael Holly here – ‘Ahanagran’ is a great book and very informative. Tim, I don’t think your information here is correct.
Kay C
My gggparents Daniel Graddy and his wife Mary (Roche) we’re born early
1800’s in Ballyline/ Ballylongford. They had several children: Margaret (1824), William (1827), Mary (1832), Johanna (1835), Catherine (1837) possibly married a Thomas Leyne in 1846), Honora (1842), Ellen (1846) who married a Lawler and moved to Guernsey, Daniel (1849) and my ggfg Henry (1834) who left for England and married an Irish girl Hannah Hayes in 1856. They immigrated to Sydney, Australia and had 13 children. I notice there is mention of a tailor, Daniel Grady in the story here and wonder is anyone has ANY information on any of these people, please! I’ve been searching for years and had had not much luck all. thank you in advance.
I’m researching a branch of my ancestors who lived in Ballyline West townland, Ballylongford in the late 1800’s and early 1900’s.
In particular: The Connor family, the father being Jeremiah Connor born 1848, the mother Catherine Nevill born 1848. Their children were John b. 1868, Bridget b. 1870, Mary b.1872, Elizabeth b. 1874, Catherine b. 1877, Margaret b. 1881, Hanora b. 1883 and Ellie b. 1888. At this stage I only have information onwards of the 1900’s for Mary (who happens to be my Gt. Grandmother) and would be interested in finding marriage details and children from marriages of any of Mary’s siblings.
In addition, Jeremiah Connor and Catherine Nevill had a granddaughter, Mary Ahern b. 1909 who was staying with them during the 1911 census, so I assume one of the female Connor children married an Ahern in the early 1900’s.
Fingers crossed!
So I am replying to my own message above re the Connors (or O’Connors depending on which records one looks at) from the townland of Ballyline West, Ballylongford.
Jeremiah Connor b. 1848 and Catherine Neville b. 1848 had 9 children; 8 girls and one boy, born between 1868 and 1888. They were John, Bridget (Delia?), Mary, Elizabeth (Lizzie), Catherine Mary (Kate), Johanna, Margaret, Hanora (Nora), and Ellie.
Mary emigrated to Scotland. Delia, Lizzie and Kate emigrated to the States (New Orleans), and Nora appears to have ended up in London. So that still leaves 4 to be accounted for… I recently did a DNA test with ancestry and uploaded it to a few genealogy sites and found a second cousin once removed through that path and some sleuth work on Genealogy.ie with birth records (the date of birth the cousin had was exactly a year out). The emigrees to America I found via Familysearch and much cross checking.
Good folks of Ballylongford – get testing your DNA! Amazing what can turn up…
I’m sure I have Enrights and Aherns to find yet.
https://waterfallmagazine.com
Good post but I was wondering if you could write a litte more on this topic?
I’d be very grateful if you could elaborate
a little bit further. Many thanks!
Would love to … if I could get around to it – time is the problem a big county with lots of history.
My Grandmother was Catherine Walsh, born in Ballyline, Ballylongford. She was a twin and the eldest of about 10 daughters. She died in 1963 and was married to Peter McGrath. Catherine’s parents were Patrick Walsh and Bridget Lynch (born 1865 in Kilgarvin). If anyone has further information on the Walsh / McGrath family, please do let me know. A lot of my ancestors are buried in Lislaugtlin.
Yes I can find your grandmother Catherine Walsh b. 25 February 1891. If you want more information on the family and their ancestors, I will send you separately a Query Form to fill in and return, if you wish to progress your search.
Am looking for the McElligott family from Tarbert who had a brother or son who migrated to Melbourne Australia in 1849-1852. Would like to know who his parents were and if he had any brothers or sisters in Ireland. Thank you
My mother was Marjorie Lynch, nee Woulfe. Her mother was Margaret Jeffcott a daughter of the John Jeffcott you mention as a farmer, I think he found some ancient cross at some stage. Do you know where their farm was? Were they buried in Ballylongford? I think that my mother’s cousin Bridie was the last of this line of Jeffcotts and she was brought back from England to be buried in Ballylongford somewhere during the 1990’s
Margaret, I know my mother knew Marjorie Lynch (Woulfe). You are a cousin of Brenda Woulfe of the bookshop. I know that the ancient Processional Cross of Lislaughtin was found on the farm of John Jeffcott in 1867, and he presented the Cross to the National Museum in 1890 Their farm was at Ballymacassy, Lislaughtin so I am presuming that their burials would also be in the burial ground there (Lislaughtin).
This is not a reply but a request:
My married name is Bambrey. I know the Bambreys were in Ballylongford because the Catholic Church rolls and the cemetery are full of Bambreys. The names Edward, George, Joseph, and John are of interest to me, because these names have continued down to my own son, born in 1975 in Colorado, USA. If anyone has any information on the various Bambrey lines, it would be greatly appreciated.
Thank you!
Lucy, thank you for your inquiry. Yes, there are a lot of Bambury families in Ballylongford. I will send you a Query Form by email. It has targeted questions to enable me to identify the correct family.
Good morning Kay. I am seeking more information on my Kerry ancestors. What I currently know – or think I know – is that my great great grandparents were William Ahern(e), born 1819, and Bridget Buckley, born 1831, in Tralee and Killarney respectively. I believe they were married in 1854 in Gale (?), and had several children. One, who is not my direct ancestor, was Bridget, born 13 Feb. 1871 in Ballylongford, and I found that record. For my great grandmother, Mary Ahern(e) I think she was born in 1859 in Listowel, but have no records for her. She married James Barrett from Athea, Co. Limerick…..just down the road! Since James was quite a bit younger, I think my great grandmother lied most of her life about her year of birth, which has foiled my search for her records. So, what I am seeking is information on my great grandmother Mary Ahern(e) and her parents, William and Bridget Buckley. All emigrated to the U.S., to Syracuse, NY, and all three are buried there in St. Agnes cemetery, which I have visited. Mary died in 1939, and both her parents dies in 1899. Thank you for any information you could provide.
-Tim
Hi Tim. Interestingly I have a GGrandmother named Mary Buckley born in Ballylongford. Her birth certificate from St. Michael’s parish says Maria Buckley born March 26, 1860. She immigrated to the US, New York specially, when she was in her teens. Her parents were Daniel Buckley and Bridget Patt. I bet we are somehow connected through the Buckley family. Do you have any stories around that family?
Katharine, I am very interested myself in the Patts. My Great Grandmother was Margaret Patt, daughter of Martin Patt, Clounamon, Asdee. You know that the correct name was ‘Patoile’ as they were reputed to be of French origin. It became Patwell, and is that to-day – they just used the surname ‘Patt’ in the 19th century. Margaret Patt married John Connor of Springmount, Duagh in 1867. As genealogy is my business, I have been to the presbytery and seen the remaining records which are scrappy and indeed incorrect in a number of cases, for this period in time. Kay (Caball)
Kay, My Great Grandmother was Mary Buckley (d. 1938). Her parents were Daniel Buckley (d. 1862) and Bridget Patt (d. 1911). Bridget was the daughter of Kate Forhan and Michael Patt. Bridget had a brother Michael who had 4 children: Martin, Mary, Jonathan?, and J___? The chart I’m working with is very old and the 2 “J” sibling names are hard to read. The name & date information is all family genealogical charts so may not be precise.
I didn’t know the name origin of Patt. Thank you for that.
Hi Kay…asked my brother to translate his shorthand on the genealogical chart for Michael Patt’s children…The 4 children of Michael Patt on my 1988 chart are Martin, John, Joe and Mary, in that order.
Hope this helps. Katharine
Hi Kay, I see my follow up note below but not my original reply to you. So here it goes again…
First thank you for the background information on the name Patt. I didn’t know about it so I appreciate your reference. As I mentioned my great grandmother is Mary Buckley (b. 1860) is the daughter of Daniel Buckley (d. 1862) and Bridget Patt (d. 1911). Bridget is the daughter of Kate Forhan and Michael Patt. Bridget had a brother Michael. (Brother) Michael had four children: Martin, John, Joe, and Mary.
These names and dates were compiled by family members but they are correct as far as we know.
Hi and thank you for this information. The Hanrahans, the Enrights, the Patts, and the Buckleys of Ballylongford are all weaved into my family tree. Mary Buckley of Ballylongford married Patrick Kane soon after coming to the US escaping the famine of Ireland. I’m grateful for your list above and will pass along to my family…I am number 7 of 10 in my immediate family. Katharine Donovan Kane
