Hello
  I don't know if I'm doing this right. But I came across this site and someone mentioned, Timothy Keefe from Ballyhooly, who later died in bedwellty, I'm sure if I can help anyone or vise versa, but I am a direct descendant of Timothy. He was my 3 rd great grandfather and I have done a lot of the welsh family

I think your Timothy would actually be the one that poster Patrick Keefe referred to, as he also mentioned Bedwellty, and it seems that one is a bit younger than the one I have, but just in case. . .

I have a Timothy Keeffe baptized in 1857 in Ballyhooly, son of my ancestors Arthur and Margaret (Harrington).  This is probably a bit of a long shot, since there was a death of a 10 yr. old Timothy dying in the area in 1867 which I suspect was him.

I also suspect that Timothy's grandfather was named Timothy Keeffe.

I'm just trying to determine what happened to Arthur and Margaret's children, as I've only been able to trace 3 of their sons that went to the USA.
CAMPBELL (Balleghan), DOUGLAS(S) (Carrowhugh) - Lower Moville, Co. Donegal
HUSBAND(S) (Sneem), SULLIVAN (Kenmare) - Kenmare, Co. Kerry
KEARNEY (Kilmurry/Castleisland), O'CONNOR (Shanaknock/Ballymacelligott) - Tralee, Co. Kerry
KEEFFE (Ballyhooly), HARRINGTON (Rathnadarrahy), DILLON - Castletownroche, Co. Cork
Note: My Irish ancestors ended up in Boston, Massachusetts area of U.S. between 1880 & 1905.

my 3rd great grandfather was Timothy Keeffe, born in ballyooley in 1807, married Mary Callaghan?. I found them in Kensington Middlesex on 1851 census with 4 children. their children were. John 1833. Hannah 1836. Ellen 1840 and Patrick 1842 all born in ballyooley. Ellen I found later in Bedwellty, she was my 2nd great grandmother and went on to marry John Delaney in 1862

My Keeffes were still in Ballyhooly at least through the 1880s.  I assume we are probably very distant cousins, as both our Keeffes came from Ballyhooly and they seem to have the same given names, but unfortunately I can't figure out the connection. ???

Okay, they won't let you post your e-mail address on the boards, & apparently you need to post 2 more messages before I can contact you through the personal message system.

Let's try this. . . I have webpages on RootsWeb (which I've barely worked on, but I suppose that is beside the point).  My e-mail address is posted on the bottom.  See http://freepages.genealogy.rootsweb.ancestry.com/~amich/index.htm
