Warren family

KerryKilleentierna (Kerry)

My great-great grandfather Timothy Warren was murdered by his neighbors in 1859 after winning a court case. His brother Jeremiah and brother-in-law John Hussey were also attacked. I found the story and the trial in old newspapers and I wondered if this kind of thing was common or not in the West at that time. I still cannot find an actual death record for Timothy.Any ideas?

Welcome to Ireland Reaching Out!

Civil registration of deaths did not start until 1864. The Killeentierna parish recorfs start very early but there are no drath records available on the NLI site.  http://registers.nli.ie/parishes/0664    We do have a parish liaison for Killeentierna and I will alert her to your message.
