Anthony Kilgallon is the son of Micheal 'Rua' Kilgallon and Mary McDonagh, who are my great-grandparents.

Hello -

Anthony Kilgallon, son of Michael 'Rua' and Mary McDonagh, married Ellen Carroll. Their daughter Mary, born 1891, married William Carney and their daughter Gertrude, born 1923, is my wife's mother.

Apart from Anthony, Michael 'Rua' Kilgallon and Mary McDonagh had eight other children - Thomas, Martin, Bridget, Patrick, John, Mary, Michael and William.

If you think that any of the information I have may be of interest to you, let me know and I will gladly share it with you.

My Grandfather, Martin married Margaret Kilgallon(2nd cousin from the Bohola side I think) and had 7 children. My mother Sheila was great friends with Gertie Kitching. Is that the same Gertrude?

Hello -

I assume, therefore, that your father was either John Patrick or Martin Thomas Kilgallon. Gertie Kilgallon, who married George Kitching, was the daughter of Anthony Kilgallon and Ellen Carroll, as was Mary Kilgallon, married to William Carney. My wife's mother, Gertie Carney, was Gertie Kilgallon's niece.

My mother, Sheila Kilgallon, was the daughter of Martin Kilgallon, therefore Gertie Kilgallon's first cousin.

Hello -

The seven children of Martin Kilgallon and Margaret Kilgallon are, as far as I am aware, John Patrick, born 1906, Mary Cecilia, born 1907, Bridget Agnes, born 1908, Margaret Teresa, born 1909, Martin Thomas, born 15 October 1911, Annie Kate, born 23 January 1914, and Celia Mary, born 15 July 1915.

Martin Kilgallon died 21 January 1934 and Margaret Kilgallon, daughter of Thomas Kilgallon  and Celia, died 25 November 1948.

There are so many similarities that I cannot believe that we are talking about different people, but I have never come across a Sheila Kilgallon. Could it be a variation of Celia?
