Welcome to Ireland Reaching Out!

I located the civil birth records for the youngest two children: Elizabeth and Timothy. It appears that the family lived in Faghcullia townland in Killarney civil parish. I checked the 1901 and 1911 census records for Faghcullia and it appears the only Connor connection would be the son Denis born in 1867 who was living alone in both censuses. Likely the parents John and Margaret died before 1901. Death record images are available for free at www.irishgenealogy.ie ; The registration district would be Killarney. There were too many John Connor and Margaret Connor death records to go thru to find the ones for your ancestors. You may want to look thru the possible records when you have a chance.

Let me know if you have any questions.

Have you considered autosomal DNA testing?
