Dennehy & McGrath families of North Kerry
« on: Tuesday 11 October 11 15:34 BST (UK) »
Hello!

I'm interested in any information people might share regarding my grandparent's families - Dennehy & McGrath - from North Kerry.

Also interested in great-grandparent's families - McGrath & Burkett / Dennehy & Moriarty.

Would love to hear from anyone with similar interest.


Cheers & Thanks,
SuasAnAbhainn.

I notice you are interested in a MORIARTY family in Tralee.
You just replied on my post about birth/baptism dates for Bryan NOLAN in Kilfenora.
Bryan went on to marry my GGrandmother in Swansea, Wales. He then died in 1927, also present at the death was Maurice Moriarty born around 1897 who then married Bryan’s widow (my GGrandmother Daisy Rees). If my Bryan Nolan was indeed from Kilfenora (not yet proven) then there is Maurice Moriarty in the neighbouring town land of Tawlaght of the right age. I am thinking there may be a connection.
