QUINN Family from Ballynakilla, Abbeyknockmoy

GalwayAbbeyknockmoy (Galway)

Hi,

I would like to make contact with relatives of my g-grandmother Kate QUINN 1859-1927.

She was married in Abbeyknockmoy, and her marriage certificate shows her father John QUINN was a farmer from Ballynakilla.

Griffiths Valuation 1848-1864 shows him leasing land  from a Martin J Blake.

There is also a John QUINN who leased land at LISS, Abbeyknockmoy.

I don't know how far apart the Townlands are, or if they are both leased by the same person ??

Kate married my g-grandfather Brian ROCHE and they lived in Feagh.

Regards,

SEAN

It looks like the two townlands are about 3 miles apart with Liss to the northeast of Ballynakilla. Both are just off the N63 national road near the village of Abbey.
