Looking for family connections in the name of Killingley from Dublin

My grandmother, Elizabeth KILLINGLEY married Arthur Keppel HOPKINS at St Catherines Church Dublin 17th October 1906. My grandmother's parents were Alfred KILLINGLEY and Elizabeth (nee) CURTIS married 5th September 1871. My grandmother and grandfather emigrated to New Zealand in 1909 but she had other siblings, namely Caroline KILLINGLEY, Florence KILLINGLEY, Alfred Edmond KILLINGLEY, Herbert Stilwell KILLINGLEY and Eleanor Curtis KILLINGLEY. I am trying to find if I have any living relatives of Alfred and Elizabeth Killingley.

Dear Maggie:

 

Many thanks for your post to the Ireland Reaching Out message board.

The best place to try to search for any living relations or cousins is to use the XO Chronicles at the top right of the page.  You can create a profile of your grandmother and include a photo, birth, marriage and death details.  The Chronicles reach a very wide audience and someone who reads the profile, may be connected to your and respond. 

If you have any trouble creating a Profile, please contact me at:  jhalloranryan@irelandxo.com.

The best of luck!

 

Kind regards,

Jane.
