Coadys of Kilcormac/Laois

Coadys of Kilcormac/Laois

I'm trying to track down my ancestry in the Kilcormac/Laois area starting with my great-grandfather Thomas 'Tommy' Coady 1895-1970 who was born in Kilcormac (Frankford) but later moved to the Laois area where my grandfather was born. He was one of eight (Patrick, Mary, Christopher, Teresa, William, Steven, James) and I think his father was William Coady born in King's County (Offaly) around 1841 if the 1911 Census is right.

I have also found a land ownership document from the 1870s where a 'James Coady' has 11 acres in the Frankford area so would assume this was an uncle or grandparent to Tommy.

Any more general knowledge of Coadys in the area is welcome.
