Hello,
Interested in descendants of Daniel and Mary (Carroll) Conneely of Manninmore. Their children included Ellen( b 1857),Thomas, Andrew, Patrick, John, Jimmy, Val, Mary, Ann Goreham, Katherine Devine. Ellen, Thomas,Ann and Mary emigrated to the USA. Ellen corresponded with Val in Balliconneely as late as 1930. Would like to learn more about this family.
Ellen's gr-granddaughter
Hi,
Thank you for your message.
Once again I would suggest looking at Church, Land and Civil registration records in order to try and find more information on the family. I gave these links to you on your message on the Drumachose parish page.
As there was contact made with Val as early as 1930, it may be a good idea to also place this message in a more local forum. As Val was still in the area within living memory someone may recognise the name and make a connection with you. Some possible places you could do this are:
The Galway Advertiser: http://www.advertiser.ie/galway
The Connaught Tribune: http://www.galwaynews.ie/connachttribune
Alternatively toy could try contacting Galway Family History Society West for assistance- a fee may apply.

Hi! I believe I may be part of this family! We believe our family was from the area of Balliconneely. My Great-great-grandfather was born (I believe) sometime in the 1850-1860s. His name was Thomas Conneely. He had a son (my great grandfather) in 1889 in NJ, Thomas Thaddeus Conneely. I do not know much about my great or great great grandfathers. Perhaps you can help!!
Great-great granddaughter of Thomas Conneely.
I also found that there was a Catherine Conneely born in 1883 and a Mary Elizabeth Conneely born in 1881, in Newark, NJ. I don't know if they are also children of My great great grandfather, Thomas Conneely. They would have been my great grandfather, Thomas Thaddeus Conneely's (1889) older sisters or cousins??? I don't know if there is a relationship between them and my grandfathers.
Please contact me if you read these replies. I know your post is a year old.
