Descendants of Patrick Duffy and Bridget Hanrahan

Hello Tracey.

I have checked the Census 1911  http://www.census.nationalarchives.ie/search/ where it shows them living in Churchquarter and working as a mason. Churchquarter takes in the area around the village of Kilbehenny. 

It shows him as having been from Kings County which is present day county Offaly.

In 1901 he had been living in Beheneugh which is just above the village .

I will ask some people who would know of the family.

Where are you living now?

Conor O'Brien

Hallo Conor

I live in Salisbury, Wiltshire. Most of my great grandfather's family have ended up in the Uk, having been brought up in Kildorrery, Co  Cork.

Two younger brothers lived in Glanworth, Co Cork, and 

i am hoping to find out more about them sometime!

Best wishes

Tracey

Hello Tracey,

I have asked around and was told that Duffy's, I presume your Duffy's,  lived in a house in the quarry in Kilbehenny.

One of them worked as a ganger (foreman) on the council and was given a council house in Furrow. His mother lived there with him.

I will keep asking.

Conor

Conor, thank you for your message.
