Found even more information.

Great-grandfather: James William Eyre (Eayre)
Born: March 16, 1869 in Callen, Kilkenny, Ireland
Parents: William Eayre and Frances Christy

James came to the US, into Ellis Island on April 13, 1899 on the SS Teutonic. Departed from Queenstown, Ireland. His occupation was coachman. This was found easily on the Ellis Island website. He lived with an uncle (real or friend of the family, I don't know, but listed as Uncle): Robert Bradley of Manhattan who was just a few years younger than James, and also from Ireland (whole Bradley family immigrated in 1883 from Ireland). Is this Frances' brother ???

Does anyone have access to Callen, Kilkenny, Ireland records?

[Information found on IGI database. Quarterly returns of births from 1864-1955, with index to births 1864-1921. Ireland General Register Office.]
