kane/murphy families

[wild_thistle]

Looking for any information on John Kane from Longford. He moved to Monaghan and was a Customs Officer there. Any ideas

Hello wild_thistle,

What denomination was John Kane, and when was he in Longford and Monaghan?
The parishes and townlands where he settled in those counties would also assist
in the search. By the way was a member of the Murphy family John's wife?

1911 and 1901 Irish census records are gradually being put online and you will be able to search for both families if you haven't already found them there. See National Archives site for information and updates (list of what order counties are to be added under 'future plans'):
