Hi Theresa,

The SeanRuad site is always a good place to look for places in Ireland.  It is at:
http://www.thecore.com/seanruad/

It finds a Kilkeel in Co Down ...

A search on Google for Kilkeel gets many hits ...

Theresa:
Kilkeel is on Carlingford Lough in COunty Down. Here is a great site for Kilkeel research:  http://www.raymondscountydownwebsite.com/

Another site which may be of some help is  http://freepages.genealogy.rootsweb.com/~rosdavies/index.html

Good luck!]
