Looking for Buckleys

Looking for Buckley descendants. My grandfather Denis Buckley was born 22 Feb 1871 in Dooneen/Drishane. He migrated to USA and married Bridget White in 1898 in Little Falls, New York. My grandfather’s brother was John Buckley, born 1 May 1854. The Census of 1911 shows that John Buckley age 56 resided at house #21 in Dooneen/Drishane as head of family; wife Elizabeth Buckley-age 42 and children were: Denis Buckley-age 22, Julia Buckley-age 20, John Buckley-age18, Jeremiah Buckley-age 15, Mary Buckley-age 13, Stephen Buckley-age 11, Kate Buckley-age 8, Elizabeth Buckley-age 5, and Hannah Buckley- age 2.
I would like to contact anyone who is related to the nine children listed above. Thank you, Richard Buckley <email>

Wonderful Easter Parade Presentation on Thursday

Blessed with truly beautiful weather, a superbly colourful display of magnificent Easter Bonnets by the children of Presentation N.S., Millstreet enchanted many people on Thursday, 29th March 2012 who were privileged to witness the children (with their teachers) on a special Easter Parade through the town from their School in West End to Supervalu in Minor Row. We are presently preparing a selection of images from the splendid annual event and these will gradually be uploaded on our website over the next few days. Here we view the overall group having visited Supervalu. We wish the children and their teachers a very Happy Easter Holiday.
