Dear Scarlet, I had an enquiry like this in the past and the person was helped by the Salvation Army. I do wish you well in your search.

I have found a listing for Kissane burial records, I don't know if this will be of any assistance to you but it does give addresses.

There are several Kissanes listed in the telephone book for Tarbert. Directory enquiries will give you the nos. if you want to go down that route. 

Do let me know me know how you get on. I will be thinking of you.

Dear Scarlet, There is a Thomas Kissane listed as a current owner of a house in Dooncaha, Tarbert.

Dooncaha is the address given on the burial records. Does it ring any bells?
