Leary/Coakley/Bantry/Inchigeelagh

[Peggy2]

I am a newbie to this site but not to research. After 16 years of looking for the above connections without much success I do need help, definitely. Any assistance to finding info on these names would be much appreciated:
Michael Leary married Julie Coakley 29 May 1817, son Denis b: April 1818. Looking for more offspring and names of fathers of couple.
Thanks Peggy2

You may have already corresponded with him but there is a Peter O'Leary at a Ballingeary and Inchigeela Local Family History Society.  Maybe he can point you to something useful:

Thanks for the info.  Will contact Peter O'Leary and keep fingers crossed.

Hi all, I’m searching for a Mary Leary who married Cornelius Coakley. I’m not sure when she was born. She died in February 1923 as a widow. She married on 14.12.1858.  1911 has her aged 74 , married for 52 years with 8 births, 6 living. The marriage is down as an elopement dispensed in Advent.

Thank you.  What I can’t find is anything earlier such as her birth or baptism.
I suppose the records have somehow got lost.

There were Coakleys and Learys in the Kerry-Cork border area DED Gneeves in Brosna parish, Kerry. Farmers and  Catholics but some may have been CI.  Birth  registers and christian names may provide a wider net
