Connor/O'Connor, Flahive family, Caher Castlegregory

~Martin Connor/O'Connor married Mary Flahiff(Flahive) in 1854 in Castlegregory, Dingle peninsula. They had several children including Hanora, Mary(Maria), Cornelius, Michael, Catherine and Martin. The last two, Catherine and Martin emigrated to the US and one or more of the others may have emigrated as well...at least one of the others emigrated to New Zealand, a daughter Mary who married Cornelius Horgan in NZ. Initially there were two named Mary and two named Michael; the eldest of each probably died in early childhood.

I can find no trace of any of the family in the 1901 census so I've surmised that they either emigrated or died...it's most probable that the elder Martin and his wife Mary remained in Ireland and died there.

If anyone has any information on any of these family members I'd appreciate it.

PS, I believe that the parents of Mary Flahive were John Flahive and Johanna O'Donnell

On the Irishgenealogy site the residence for the baptisms of all of the children was listed as Cahir which I now know is Caher, a townland between Castlegregory and Tullaree
