Looking for any info on what I believe are my gt gt grandparents James And Ellen (Sweeney) Hurley of county Kerry in Killeen Tierrna. These folks were married in 1816 and we're mentioned as being the parents of Ellen Hurley Kehoe who died in New York City November 1907. If any living relatives would sure like to connect
Dear Bob
Welcome to Ireland Reaching Out!
You could have a look at www.irishgenealogy.ie - a free site for Kerry records. They are launching additional records tomorrow and so the site is not working as well is it should today but should be up and running again on Friday.
Best wishes

A conundrum...Having found some DNA relatives in New York there appears to be a discrepancy with information on my GT GT grandmother Ellen Sweeney about 1800. She had 4 or 5 children born to James Hurley in New York. Here is the issue. On at least 2 of her deceased children TUHIGG is listed as her birth name instead of Sweeney. I have attempted to find TUHIGG in many Irish databases but am unable to find. Any information on the TUHIGG name?
