Cornelius sailed from Liverpool on the ship Girard and arrived in New York on July 22, 1837. He married Bridget Dailey, who had emigrated in 1846. This pair was the start of the Keenan clan in upstate New York. Also could have been from County Down.
County Clare, or An Clár in Irish, is located in the mid-west region of Ireland. Clare is known for its beautiful scenery and we are home to the famous Burren and Cliffs of Moher. We have a population of approximately 117,196. We look forward to helping you connect with your ancestors’ place of origin.
