Hello Mary
Thanks for the reply. We also had some communication with Fr. Crean, a few years back. The earliest O'Connor ancestor, we have been able to trace, is Michael O'Connor, through British Army records, where he was always recorded as Connor. He was born in 1791 and is my g/g/g/grandfather. We presume he died in 1843, because that's when the army pension, ceased being paid. He enlisted at Tralee, but was from Castlegregory. He was the father of the Jeremiah O'Connor, who I referred to in the marriage record, in my previous posted message.
I was born in New Zealand in 1941, where my g/grandfather, Patrick O'Connor emmigrated to, in the 1860's. His siblings, Michael & Jeremiah, and maybe sister a Ellen, went to USA, but we have not been able to establish any link with them , or any ancestor of theirs.
With all the Kerry O'Connors' there were, I fully appreciate the frustrations, of having the name, on both sides of the family. If any of the above resonates with you, we would love to hear about it.
Regards
Kevin O'Connor
