My 2nd gr Grandmother was Catherine Kennedy (born Spillane) from Fahamore.  I have not been able to verify the names of her parents.   Timothy Spillane and Mary Courname have come up in my research but I could not verify the path.  

Wife of James Kennedy 
Mother of Patrick Kennedy (my great grand father); Mary Murphy, James Kennedy, Thomas Kennedy, Margaret Kennedy, Bridget Kennedy and Thadeus Kennedy

I'd love to add more pieces to the puzzle!  I have only been able to go back as far as James Kennedy and Catherine (Spillane) Kennedy.  

Wondering if the owners of Spillanes Bar in Fahamore can fill us in on the tree.

Welcome to Ireland Reaching Out!

You did not provide any dates in your message. I searched on www.irishgenealogy.ie and found an 1848 baptismal record for a Catherine Spillane from Fahamore with the parents you listed in your message (see second record below). However, I also found an 1846 marriage record for a James Kennedy and Catherine Spillane which would eliminate the 1848 baptismal record. The Castlegregory/Killiny baptismal records start in late 1828 so possibly the Catherine listed in the 1846 marriage record was baptized before records are available. Let me know.

so it looks like Tim and Mary had two sons Jeremiah 1842, Michael 1845 and Catherine 1848?
