Michael and Catherine (Morrissey) Connolly were the parents of:
Nora J (born 1880 in Kolcolgan, galway, Irl Roveagh and Mary J, Bridget Delia, Anne, Katherine J, Winifred, Martin, and Peter. Katherine was my grandmother and Married Patrick Killeen in the US in 1920. Births were between 1880 and 1895. Nora, Mary, and Catherine immigrated to the US from 1897 to 1909.
I am seeking information on this family. Thank you.
Mary Anne:
Below are the links to the 1901 and 1911 census records for the family in Roevehagh townland. I also located the 1878 civil marriage index record for Michael and Catherine. You can get a copy of the record from the general Register Office for around 4 euros. https://www.welfare.ie/en/Pages/Apply-for-Certificates.aspx
The record will show the names of the fathers of the bride and groom and where the bride and groom were living in 1878.
Likely Michael's father was named Martin. See the 1856 griffiths.
