Looking for the Spillane

KerryStradbally (Kerry)

I am looking for the Spillane of Stradbally (Fahamore)and or Killiney (Castlegregory). The father was Timothy Spillane and his wife was named Mary Cournane. They had at least two sons, Jeremiah,born 1842 and Michael born 1845. Michael married a Mary Kenny and had the following children. Maurice, Jeremiah, Thomas, Mary, Michael, Timothy, John and Catherine. All born around the 1870's thru 1880's. Michael and Maurice moved to Waterbury Connecticut in 1901 and 1903 respectively. Mary Kenny father was Simon Kenny and his wife was Mary Hickson. Mary had two brothers Michael and Patrick born around 1841 thur 1851. Thanks

Welcome to Ireland Reaching Out!

You will want to visit www.irishgenealogy.ie which is a free Irish government site which has Co. Kerry church records. I found the 1840 marriage record (see below) in Castlegregory. They had at least seven children baptized: John July 2nd, 1841 Jeremiah August 6, 1843, Michael October 7, 1845 Catherine June 25th 1848 Ellen May 16 1852 No Name February 9th 1856 Margaret July 8, 1858

You will likely find further records of the next generation.
