Hi,
Thank you for your message.
have you tried looking for information on Anne in Church records?
Irish Genealogy have begun a project to upload church records to their website free of charge. So far only a small number of counties have been covered, fortunately Kerry is one of them. You should be able to find Anne?s baptismal certificate in these records and possibly even her parents? marriage and birth certificates. Here is the website:
http://churchrecords.irishgenealogy.ie/churchrecords/
Alternatively, you could check in civil records as civil registration became mandatory in Ireland in 1864. These records are available from the General Register?s Office in Dublin. Here is the website:

You can search the indexes to these records online at:
https://familysearch.org/search/collection/1408347
You could also check for the family in the 1901 census records, and for any family that remained in Ireland in the 1911 census records. These are available online at:

Some other websites that you may find useful are:

The National Library of Ireland http://www.nli.ie/en/family-history-introduction.aspx

I hope that this is helpful. Remember to post as much information as you can with regard to the people you are researching. The more information you post, the more likely it is that one of our volunteers will be able to advise or assist you. Also include information concerning which sources you may have already used so others may further your search.
Please be patient - as our programme has only begun to rollout across the island of Ireland and volunteers in some areas may not yet be organized.
Kind regards,
Genealogy Support
