They lived and farmed in area known as Knocknahoe, east of Killarney. My relative is their daughter Honora b. 1870 who went to America 1897. What parish is Knocknahoe in?
The Cahills parish of Knocknahoe will be found under either Headfort / Lisbaby in census forms - as far as I am aware there are still Cahills in the area - check out the 2011 census and you will find them.
OK- I went to the 2011 Census and got absolutelu lost. Can you guide me to where I find Knocknahoe Households and owner names? We have visited with cousin Patrick and his family, also Mary Cahill and they are neighbors. I do appreeciate your reply!
I'll check the parishes next for Catherime Cremin.
