Hello Mary,
Havene't touched this tree for ages but thankfully never threw out all the pages I had on the Lavelle/Gibbons connections, even though I am yet to find the connection to our Lavelle tree.
I found at the Coburg cemetery (Roman Catholic section A, grave 643a burial for Sarah Kane, father John Lavelle mother Sabina Minehan.Sarah is buried with her mother Sabina, sister Mary Ann & Baby Lavelle who died 1899 result of stillbirth.I'm not sure who's baby he is. Her son William James born 1889 at Coburg - surname KANE (VPI 29938)died 1890 at Coburg aged 4mnths. He is buried with his aunts, Bridget Lavelle & Mary Dunbar & grandmother Katherine Keane/Kane (nee Duggan). I sent for Sarah's death cert, she died as a result of childbirth. Peritonitis, cardiac failure 9 days after childbirth.Her father is on the cert as being a labourer.The address was Sydney Road, Coburg.Her Husband was William Keane. It states she was born in County Mayo and had been in Victoria 12 years.It states she married William in Victoria but I can find no record of the marriage.William remarried to Mary Barrett, I thought I had their cert but can't lay my hands on it.They are buried together at Coburg.I'm sure the marriage cert stated his first wife had died, her age & the year they had married.Anyway, it confirmed that this was our William. I've tried every spelling for the marriage to Sarah but to no avail.I can't imagine, the family being Catholic, that there was no marriage.
So that is Sarah's connection to our tree.I'm not sure if Bridget Lavelle's (nee Keane)husband Michael is connected to Sarah family or not. Michael died 1929 his father was Anthony mother Catherine UNKNOWN.
Now the Minehan/Lavelle part.
I have Sabina born circa 1815 in Cty Mayo, died 1878 Victoria buried Coburg Cemetery. Her father was William Meenehan (as per indexes) mother Sarah Reilly.I have nothing further on John Lavelle. I have a note that she may have married a 2nd time to Patrick Rilley/Reilly.

4.William Lavell b circa 1855 Cty Mayo, died 1876.Buried at Coburg with Catherine Rily aged 16wks, Patrick Riley aged 24yrs.Catherine's parents were Patrick Rilley & Sarah Lavelle.Patrick's parents were James Riley & Sarah Lavelle.Also at coburg deaths for James Lavell aged 4yrs & Thomas Lavell aged 6yr, both died 1876 parents Catherine Reilly & Michael Lavelle.Catherine & Michael also had a daughter in 1875 names Sabina and I have noted that Catherine may have been the daughter of Sabina Minehan & James Reilly.Also a daughter Sarah b 1878. both in coburg.
5.Sarah b circa 1856 died 1891 married William Keane as above.
Michael & Bridget, both died Kooweerup.You say you have their children.These are the ones I found, just in case either of us has missed any.
Sarah 1880 b Coburg

John b 1885 Cob

Mary Louise b 1892 Coburg
William b 1895 Kooweerup

Anthony b 1903 K-rup
Anne b 1900 K-rup
I found a brother for Bridge, Joh who died 7/5/1879 at Coburg cemetery.Also her brother James who married Mary Ann Lavelle.
I hope this helps and isn't too confusing.The Coburg Cemetery can be found at the website for the Fawkner Cemetery (in case you are unaware of it).
I am still no closer to finding our michael from Bellmullet, but I wouldn't be surprised to discover the Lavelles, Keanes & Gibbons all came from the same part of County Mayo.
kind regards
Debra
