Hi bets
I checked the Irish phone book www.118.ie/ & there are a few of each surname in Galway but no mention of Fohenagh, Killure or Killgerill.
Do you know your ancestors' religion? The R C registers (free at registers.nli.ie/) have Baptisms, Marriages & Deaths for Fohenagh 1827 to 1877.
I notice in the public member trees on ancestry that the ealry Penders were born around 1810. www.rootsireland.ie/ doesn't have any for Clonfert that early & has C of I only.
I checked my cd Memorials of the Dead Galway but had no luck with any of the surnames.
Free sites such as the Tithe Applotments, Griffiths Valuation & the irish Censuses 1820-1911 might be worth a look.
