I am hoping somebody out ther can help me. My grandmother was Kathleen Keogh bn 1899 in Mountbellew. She was the daughter of James Joseph Keogh Bn 1862 and Mary Ann Kelly 1860 - 1903. Kathleen had 4 sisters Bedelia, Mary Ann, Margaret and Fannie and 3 brothers Francis, Patrick and James. I believe their mother Mary Ann Kelly was the sister of Colonel Thomas Kelly. I think James Joseph Keogh was the son of Francis Keogh 1828-1892 and Bedelia McGauran 1833-1866. I have very little information on my Keogh roots and was hoping somebody out ther might be able to help.

Hello,
My grandmother was Frances Keogh (Fannie?),she had a sister who became a nun and a younger half sister,she also had some brothers none of whom married,I will talk to my sister and brother who know lots more about the family and let you know more details,but not sure about other sisters,
I do know that my grandmother spent a lot of time at Kelly's Bar in Mountbellew with her aunt so that would tie in.
They had a family home called Ballyderney House,which I have been too,also there is a large family grave in the local church.My grandmothers half sister was 103 when she passed away I think about 4 years ago,I am terrible with dates but I did go to the funeral.my email is hallkaren92@gmail.com,if you would like to get in touch,Karen Hall
