Kelly Family from Shanaglish, Galway

Galway

I am seeking relatives of John Kelly who emigrated to Australia, circa 1881, and lived in Ipswich and Brisbane.  His Marriage (at age 28 Years) and Death (at age 79 years) Certificates state his parents as Thomas and Margaret Kelly (nee Loughry) from Shanaglish.

Any information would be most helpful.

Thank you.

Thank you MaryTV for this valuable information which I hope will help lead me to the Irish records relating to my great grandfather, John Kelly.  The YouTube video "Nights in Shanaglish" was much appreciated and I now know how to correctly pronounce Shanaglish.
