Looking for Sullivans

KerryTralee (Kerry)

My Great Grandfather was Daniel Sullivan born July 25, 1872(?).  From his death certificate I found he was from Kerry, Ireland and his parents were Daniel Sullivan and Catherine Carroll.  His obituary stated he had brothers Martin, Thomas and Cornelius.  I found birth records for Thomas (16/8/1867) and Cornelius (26/5/1870) with these parents.  It states they were born in Ardfert, Kerry, Ireland.  I canfind no other records on this family and don't know where else to look.  I know Daniel and Martin moved to Chicago, Illinois but have nothing on the rest of the family.  I was courious if they stayed in Ireland and if there are any decendents still there.  I would like to find any records I can on this family.

 

Thank you in advance,

Jean Sullivan Cardinal

Thanks Mallow.  I had the birth records for Thomas and Cornelius.  It was Daniel and Martin and the parents I was looking for.

Dear Jean, in haste...it might be useful to collate the Sullivans and Carrolls listed and go sideways instead of a straight line. You may find sibs or parents in the process!

Sullivans and Carrolls listed in Griffiths 1850 for Bawnmore
