Hello !
My gg-grandmother Mary Mahony (1823 - 1901) was from Bredagh. Her father was Denis Mahony and her mother was Catherine Hurley.
If my research is correct, her brother Denis stayed on in Bredagh and her brothers Patrick and Timothy lived in Rearahinagh.
I would love to be in touch with O'Mahonys if there are any still in those areas !

Hi Susan,
Thanks for posting this message and sharing this information.
Perhaps the best course of action would be to place a message in a local newspaper or online newpaper.
I have found a couple online that you could try, here are the links to them:

Do you have anymore information that you could post? For example do you know if her brothers had any children? Remember to post as much information as you can with regard to the people you are researching. The more information you post, the more likely it is that one of our volunteers will be able to advise or assist you. Also include information concerning which sources you may have already used so others may further your search.
Please be patient - as our programme has only begun to rollout across the island of Ireland and volunteers in some areas may not yet be organized.
Kind regards,
Genealogy Support
