Hi

Thank you for your message.

In the meantime- Remember to post as much information as you can with regard to the people you are researching. The more information you post, the more likely it is that one of our volunteers will be able to advise or assist you. Also include information concerning which sources you may have already used so others may further your search.

Hi my othere half  sister is married to a kelly of castledermot although not the same family.   they remember that family and shed etc. - what actualy does the person want a contact name and number????

Hi! Narraghmore,

      I've been thinking hard about what I want, as you asked. In past messages, I've asked to know of cousins in the Castledermot area or any info on ancestors beyond Michael Kelly who married Mary Stines in 1790.( I was wrong in the original message). I met Michael Wall in 2008 and drove out to Plunketstown Lower with him. During that drive, he told me that I'd be related to half of the people in any pub in Castledermot and I have met Deidre Kelly on line who told me of her uncles, whom Michael mentioned and the old cottage and the new house. So, at this point I can only ask to get to know more relatives of the old homested. Any info from 18th century will probably take much more investigation.

                                                                                       Thanks for your help, Kevin Kelley           

Recently, I received a record copy from a helpful angel from Glasnevin Cemetery that records Silvestor Kelly ,son of Michael Kelly of Plunketstown Lower  , dying at the South Dublin workhouse in 1870 and now I wondering when his wife, Anne Nolan died and where she is buried:.Silvestor was born in 1793 and I have no birth/death dates for Anne, but I was told that some of my ancestors were buried across the road from  plot 5 or 6 on the Griffiths map. Can anyone help?
