I'am searching the Kirvan name here in southern Ontario-Canada.My father was one of three sibblings born to a John Joseph Kirvan near Guelph Ontario (mother Julie Agnes Brown) John Joseph Kirvan was born in 1873 approx. to Patrick Kirvan of Elora and Catherine nee Keating. Patrick was born in Waterford approx 1844 and Catherine in King's county Ireland. Patrick's parents were Patrick Kirvan and Bridgit nee Morisey.They had 10 sibblings including my grandfather John Joseph.Some may have gone to USA or other places.The names from eldest to youngest are - Mary, Elizabeth, Morice,Patrick, James,John,Alice,Herbert,Catherine(called Annie)and Fred. In 1891 census Mary was 26 and the youngest Fred was 7.
