Denis Kett Rath Killaloe

Clare

According to Irish Catholic Registers 1655-1915, Dyonisius Kett was born on 22-4-1826 at Rath.His parents were Patrick and Helena Foley Kett

When Denis arrived at Melbourne in 1850, his immigration papers state these parents stilll living in Clare.

Another sister Brigid born in 1825

I am unclear exactly where Rath is-hoping to find a more specific location for the family

Thanks  Moranding
