I am Linda O'Driscoll Pearce.  I am the daughter of Norah Casey O'Driscoll, and Joseph O'Driscoll.  My father was born in Doncaster England, but his parents and half of his siblings were born in Cork, Ireland. My mother Norah Casey is from the parish of Tuosist, County Kerry.  I know that some my mother's family are Sheas, and some are Sullivans, but I can't seem to go beyond my grandparents generation to make the exact connections.  I have some names and dtes, but I'm not sure if they are correct. Any help in this matter would be greatly appreciated.

  • Hi

    I am the grand daughter of Catherine Driscoll, born April 1870.  She arrived in Canada about 1897.  Her brothers Richard and James arrived approximately in 1880.

     

    Parents are:  Michael Richard Driscoll

                         Mary O'Rielly

     

    All this information from marriage documents here in Canada.  The only information that we have states they were from Kerry.  Cannot find any record in Ireland.  I am wondering if maybe they were O'Driscoll.

     

    Does any recognize these names?  Willing to pay someone to search the parishes of the area.

     

    Cheers
