Andrew Keily was a church clerk, first serving in Mitchelston, where he married Margaret Ahern from Glenbrohane in the Catholic church on 17 February 1867.  They later moved to Cappoquin where they raised their family: Johanna born 22/12/1867, Catherine born 7/3/1869, Callahan John born 12/7/1870, Andrew born 19/12/1871, Mary Ann born 20/9/1873, James born 17/9/1875, Margaret born 26/11/1876, Julia born 23/4/1878 and Agnes born 28/12/1879.

I have not been able to find any record of his death.

Andrew's son Andrew was my great-grandfather. He and his sister Mary Ann migrated to Melbourne, Australia in 1892, a year after their mother's death. Mary Ann remained in Melbourne and married Edmund Palmer, while Andrew travelled to South Australian and worked at the Mt Schank station. He married Margaret Jane Kemp and they had 7 children. He died in 1935.
