According to Christopher's death certificate, he was born at Castle Dun(n)agh, Kilkenny, Ireland. After much searching by all of my relatives and myself we cannot find a Castle Dunnagh, in County, Kilkenny. I know that the boundaries have changed over the years and maybe we have been searching in the wrong place. 

Christopher's father was Mat(t)hew Flanagan, and his mother was Elizabeth Mary Coyne. 

Christopher J.K married Johanna (Hanna) Connery  in Tallow, Co Waterford, 1840. 

Son, Mat(t)hew was born in 1841

Christopher, Johanna and Matthew emigrated to New South Wales in 1841. 

Christopher's Date of Death 30 March 1894 in "Jerrabiggery", New South Wales, Australia

Spouse Johanna Connery (Coonery, Conoly ?),1817 - 1885 died in Queanbeyan, New South Wales, Australia 

All assistance and advice is greatly appreciated and trust that someone can assist us. 

Kind regards

Joy Flanagan

    Travelling Folk in the 1930s

    <p>Between 1937 and 1939, primary school pupils across the Republic of Ireland interviewed the elderly in their neighborhood to collect and record local stories and folklore from the 19th century. "The Schools Collection" as it became known is held by the Dúchas Folklore Collection in UCD and is and has been digitized online at duchas.ie. One of the topics schoolchildren were asked to write about were "Travelling Folk" or An Lucht Siúil. </p> <p>Here is a selection of what "settled" children wrote about travelers in the late 1930s.</p>
