Laois (Queens) / Kellys of Bogtown
« on: Thursday 09 February 12 22:56 GMT (UK)  »
Trying to find any trace of Thomas Kelly born in Bogtown (Queens Co/Laois). He married Marcella Dempsey of Mountrice, Monasterevan, Co Kildare and they had about 9 children (eldest also Thomas Kelly). His father was also Thomas Kelly but no idea of mother. Any pointers appreciated.

Wicklow / Byrnes!!
« on: Saturday 31 December 11 00:54 GMT (UK)  »
I know there are lots of Byrnes and Doyles in Wicklow. My GGparents John Byrne (Newtownmountkennedy) - father Thomas Byrne (alive) married Anne Doyle (Woodenbridge) - father Joseph Doyle (alive) in Avoca in       . They went on to have at least 4 children - Margaret in 1865, Anne in 1868, Christopher in 1871 and Bridget (my GM) in 1874. I have Bridgets birth cert which givs the address as something like Ballinsoths?? (difficult to read) and at her marriage her address was listed as Barraniskey. I am trying to find out about John and Anne and their original famiies if possible and where might be buried etc. I am quite new to this research (which is fascinating) and would appreciate any help in going forward especially given the popularity of the Byrne/Doyle names in Wicklow.
