Tuesday 08 March 2005 8:19:09 pm Learys from Cork near Kerry borderStrong oral tradition places my Leary clan's origin in Cork. (I realize that historically this is true) But my research shows my line in Kerry near Cork border east of Killarney back to at least 1800. Anyone researching Leary and Callahan from this area? |

Friday 24 February 2006 10:09:48 pm Learys Near Kerry BorderHi Maureen..Hope you are still active in this forum. I am looking Learys- GGG Arthur around Inchigeelagh, GG John, same area. I also have a Florence who maybe a brother or cousin to John. His (Florence) obit in Faribault, Minnesota, 1907 mentions that he came from County "Carney", and sis and I thought it may be Kerry, and he came from the Rathmore area. We do not have anything concrete to go on, except a Parish record for Arthur in Coolmountain, near Inchigeelagh, which we are not 100% sure of. Hopefully you are still in contact with this board, and I shall await any reply..Thanks...Helen...hlearyo@comcast.net |

Monday 07 April 2008 2:41:16 am BHUI SEPTHi Maureen & Helen. Do either of you know if you have a connection to the O'Leary Bhui/Bwee/Boy Sept? I'm currently working on a theory that I may be a descendant of a Richard O'Leary, b. 1795, Tooreenean, (Iveleary) Cork brother of Maura Bwee O'Leary the poet. I am in touch with a couple others with connections to the Burke side (Maura married a Burke) with whom I have a 95.4% DNA match. Still searching for those needles in the haystack, namely my g.g.grf. Richard Leary and g.grf. Michael Leary. Looking forward to hearing from you. Thanks. Don dbjoleary@aol.com |
