I am currently assembling a file on our surname which is initially focused on Ireland where my grandfather John served in the Royal Irish Constabulary was subsequently a caretaker on retirement and was married late in life to my grandmother Mary Donovan-McCarthy a widow with four sons. Their home was a small farm in Kippagh outside of Dunmanway,West Cork My father William was the only child of that marriage. My grandfather's brother-William left Ireland in the early 1920's for Australia and since the going away party was in Clonikility. I would assume he lived in Clon or close by. My father emigrated to Boston in 1927 and stayed in contact with his three of stepbrothers,two of whom I met,(one brother had been killed in action in WWI-served in the British Army's South Irish Horse) I would like to hear from others with Deane family interests in Ireland, Australia and the U.K.
