Collins familys from Killeentierna

 

I am researching the Collins family from Killeentierna Co. Kerry. My Great Grandfather emigrated to the United States in the the mid to late 1870's. His name was Jeremiah Collins and he was born in 1851. His Father was Timothy Collins and his mothers name was Honora. His children were named Timothy, Honora, Jeremiah, Mary, John, Anna, Alice, Patrick, William, Elizabeth, and Catherine.       

I believe that this is his Baptism record, and his mothers maiden name was Honora Collins.     

Baptism of JEREMIAH COLLINS of CURRENS on 6 December 1851

Father    TIMOTHY COLLINS
Mother    HONORA COLLINS

Sponsor 1    TIMOTHY RUSSELL
Sponsor 2    MARGARET CONNELL

I am interested in this family record as possibly related.

TIMOTHY COLLINS        born  28 September 1825

JEREMIAH COLLINS    born  8 July 1828

JOHN COLLINS        born  3 September 1830

MARGARET COLLINS    born  9 January 1834

Griffiths Valuation Records show property in Currans occupied by a Timothy Collins in 1853 at the present location of Daly's Riverside Inn. The property on the other side of the river was occupied by a Patrick Collins, and a John Collins was on a farm nearby down the road.

As it appears that both of my Paternal Grandparents had the Collins Surname I am interested in any information about the Collins families in the Currans and  surrounding areas related to my family or not. Any information is useful even if it only serves to eliminate potential leads.

I would like to know if  anyone knows the possible location of the graves of Timothy and Hanora Collins from the mid to late 1800's.

Possible connections to these families;

CONNELL, BROSNAN, CASEY, RUSSELL, BYRNES, BURKE, and CULLINANE

Thank You, Jerry Collins
