Sean Kelly b 1925 approx Gortalougha

[Traceyk1ng]

Can anybody please help.

I can't find any record for the above man.

His Father was Thomas Kelly and Mother Bridgit Delia Howard.  He had 5 siblings
Thomas
Michael
Gerimiah
Kathleen
Mary

They lived on a farm in Gortalougha Co Clare.

Sean left Ireland in the 1960s for England but no trace of him there either?

Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Thanks

I see the parents married 1920

As their children's births are all less than 100 years ago the Certs won't be online yet.
They should be on the index on Family Search, Sean may be listed as John.
The Reg district is Ennistymon.
Difficult period to find records due to data protection, do you know what school he would have attended?
Is it listed in the Folk lore collection https://www.duchas.ie/en/cbes/CL?p=1&o=Vol

Hi Sinnan
I don't 
Was Sean known as John sometimes in Ireland?
I guess they went to the nearest school but I wouldn't know the name as I'm from England.

Sean is the Irish for John.
Often on official documents the English version of the name is used.

The index isn't proving much use, I can't get a Kelly/Howard result before 1929, all three such results for Ennistymon are for 1929, quite possibly triplets as they are all in the same quarter.

It may simply be a case that area haven't recorded mother surname on the index until 1929ish, it varies for place to place.

Since he was born in 1925 there's a chance he's still alive. If he didn't marry or die in England there may not be much to find online (not sure how recent are BMD death events recorded in online indexes but others will likely know).
Possibly Sean's parents?
Erected by John Kelly, Gortlaugha, in loving memory of his son, Michael Kelly died, 20th June
1913 aged 25 years , Catherine Kelly, died, 20th September 1895 aged 16 yrs. Bridget Kelly,
died, 22nd March 1965, her husband, Thomas, died, 11th June 1973.

Thankyou so much that looks to be the right family Gortalougha was a small holding/farm
