Hi Mike,

 

Once again I must say an awfully big thanks!!!! to you. You've found my Michael Keating for me and I now have a date of death. It fits perfectly with the year of birth that I have - 1817. Now I just have to find his marriage to Margaret. I have emailed raytracer as you suggested and am waiting on a reply. Fingers crossed.

 

One question - when putting the deatils into my family history software I am a little confused as to how it should be written. Should it be "Kilcanavee, Rathgormack, Co Waterford, Ireland" or should it read otherwise??

 

Thanks again for all your help - I'll let you know what I hear from my query.

 

Julie

Mike,

 

Ooooooh! I was just trying to work it out myself when you messaged. That explains it! This family seems to be growing by the second (sort of!)

 

I'll try that Waterford Library site a little later  might be up by then.

KILCANAVEE, Cill Cheannabhuidhe - "Canaway's Church"; John Fleming gives somewhere another (somewhat far-fetched) derivation, scil:- Cill Chinn Mhaige. Site of the early church on Keating's farm and the outlines of the circular rampart, enclosing two acres or thereabouts, are distinctly traceable. Some interresting dresses stones from a primitive doorway are built into a fence by the roadside. Area, 825 acres.
S.DD.(a) Gleann Fuinnse - "Ash-tree Glen."
(b) Cruachán (Paorach) - "Little (Mountain) Pile", little in comparison with the Comeragh heights behind it to the west, but itself in reality is a considerable hill, 1,285 feet high
