I have been doing genealogy for many years now. I'm familiar with the Millstreet birth and marriage (Glenflesk Parish, Kerry) online records from the Department of Arts, Sports and Tourism, and the 1901 and 1911 Ireland Censuses online. Great places for research!! I know about my Lehane ancestor's emigration to America (Massachusetts, some via New York) and have found many others related to my Lehanes in America. I am so glad to know about your wonderful website on Millstreet. If there are any Lehanes related to Stephen Lehane and Honora Kelliher, both born in the 1830's, then that is a good place to begin. They were married in 1860. They had 11 children. Through birth records, I found that some of their children were born in Dooneen, some in Droumsicane, some in Coolekerane, one in Shanaknac, and one in Ballydaly. I'm guessing the towns are all in one area. Stephen and Honora were the parents of my great-grandmother, Julia Maria Lehane. Julia emigrated to Massachusetts to marry my great-grandfather, Patrick Kell(e)y, formerly of Ironmills, Glenflesk. I'm hoping to find a Millstreet family connection to this Lehane family. Thanks for your time. ~Patsy Re: Lehanes of Ballydaly

I shall attempt to discover how similar or how different the setting of 26,Coomlogane Street, Millstreet is now in 2009 as it would have been in your great grandparents time. We've recalled your summer 2009 visit to Millstreet in the current issue of "Clara News" in our "In Passing" feature which will appear on our website shortly.

She came to England and married John Coyle in 1948 in Lincolnshire. I remember her telling me that her father was a postman who had a large family. I have met some of them in the past but have since lost touch. If any one with information could contact me I would be highly delighted. Many thanks in anticipation.

I believe they are working on the 1901 census at this time and plan to have it online by the end of the year. I have found my great, great, great grandfather and grandmother living with one of his daughters (my great great grandfathers sister) which confirmed a lot of things for me! My great great grandfather came to the US (to Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania) in 1895 and it's been hard to track down to Ireland prior to this. I have information on him and his brothers that they came from Millstreet so this was a great find. If any Kelleher's (descended from Tim and Ellen) or Carrolls (descended from Kate Kelleher Carroll and Daniel) would like to exchange information please let me know! I'm always trying to make links back to Millstreet! Presley Kelleher presleyk|at|verizon|dot|net (replace |at| with @ and |dot| with .)

I reviewed the census Late last week and found my great grandparents, Denis (65) & Honora (65)Dennehy and son Michael(36)at 26 Coomlogane Street, and I had no idea where it was, other than somewhere in the West End. To your knowledge, is there anything in that particular area now?? Thanks again for everything you do. Joe & Marie Sean – Thanks for explaining this.

Coomlogane House was of course situated in what we later called The Lawn ...now the Town Park...and one of the visitors, we believe, to arrive on a regular basis to the McCarthy-O'Leary owned residence was the famous Daniel O'Connell. Yes, the Justice Family had a Bakery in Coomlogane Street. Later this famous Bakery moved to Main Street to a setting which was once owned by the Hegarty Family of Pound Hill, Millstreet. The fame of Justice's Bakery spread far and wide over the years with such hugely popular products such as the hot cross buns, the brown square, delicious confectionary and superb Christmas cakes! Riordan's Lane, the Lane near Nibbles - there was a forge in that Lane also...and I believe there was a Riordan Family living close by. Bank Lane could have been down by BOI or perhaps McCarthy's Lane as I feel there were dwellings behind those houses. Also, the person in charge of the Ireland's most recent census is of course a Millstreet native - Donal Garvey (who, I believe, is now retired).
