Dear Lorri:

Many thanks for your post to the Ireland Reaching Out message board.

You might consider checking the Clare Library website for a list of their online resources.  The link is below:

In addition, you might also check the parish registers in the surrounding area to Kilmanaheen.  Unfortunately, the Kilmanaheen registers that are available online only begin in 1870.  However, the adjacent parishes of Milltown Malbay, Kilfenora and Rath begin much earlier (1830's and 1818 in Rath) and it is possible that some information may be available there.

I will ask several local volunteers about the three surnames that you have mentioned. 

In the meantime, the best of luck with your research. 

If you need further assistance, you can email me at:  jhalloranryan@irelandxo.com.

Kind regards,

Jane.
