Mathias McNamara & Mary Doherty McNamara

GalwayGlenamaddy (Galway)Kilcroan (Galway)

Looking for relatives of Mathias McNamara (DOD 17 Aug 1907) and his wife Mary Doherty McNamara. The family lived in Bracklaugh Bog, and I think they had extended family on both sides in the general area of Williamstown, Kilcroan, Glennamaddy and Ballymoe, Galway.

See third record on this link for the 1875 marriage record for Matthias McNamara and Mary Doherty. Matthias' father was John and Mary's father was Michael (deceased).  https://civilrecords.irishgenealogy.ie/churchrecords/images/marriage_re…; Mary Doherty was from Kilnalag townland in Templetogher civil parish.

Here is the 1901 census. They lived in Bracklagh townland in Kilcroan civil parish.

I did not see the family in the 1911 census. Were they still in the area?
