Looking for information on O'Donnell ancestors

KerryKilnaughtin (Kerry)

I am looking for information on John (Sean) O'Donnell.  I did have someone send me a message indicating that they had found baptism records for a John  O'Donnell in July 1797 in your parish.  I have found information that his birthdate could be 1797 or 1799.  i am having trouble finding out much about him back in Ireland.  He married Margaret Carroll in Ireland  & I believe two of their children, Thomas & Mary were both born in Ireland before emigrating to Canada.   Hope someone can help.

Hi Annemarie

there are a lot of John Donnell baptism's - this is the only one in July  of either of those years - I do recommend you have a look at this website : http://churchrecords.irishgenealogy.ie/churchrecords/

I tried to find his marriage there aren't any to a Margaret O'Carroll but there are Mary's etc so suggest you try with just a surname to see if you can find their marriage - then look for the childrens births baptism's 

also at the bottom of the page of Johns baptism's click on the link to see the scanned image of the Register 

I also looked on : www.familysearch.org website 

Hope it helps

Good Luck
