Michael married Ellen Kelliher about1875. My next door neighbor in Boston is Mary Kelliher whose grandfather would have been Thomas Kelliher born 1864 in Millstreet, Mary’s cousin would be John O’Leary from Millstreet currently – trying to see if there is a family connection.ANY RELATIONS TO ANY OF THE ABOVE ARE WELCOME PLEASE BRING ANY FAMILY PHOTOS AND STORIES.

Fondest greetings dear listeners and wish you all the very best on this lovely bright and crisp Tuesday morning.
The Good news first. A million congratulations to all involved in our Tidy Towns effort on being awarded a Bronze Medal at the national results which were announced in Dublin yesterday. We also gained an extra point,bringing us up to a grand 296. Further to that we were overjoyed during the week to hear that Millstreet came first in category D in the Co.Council Anti litter campaign.
Full marks to all those who worked so hard all through to make sure of a victorious outcome. Many thanks to all those who cleaned outside their own front doors. Thanks to all those who put their rubbish in the bin rather than on the ground. To those who painted their places and removed eyesores .The list goes on. In fact it took all the effort of all the people to make us proud winners of grand prizes,
and proud to make Millstreet a better place.
