I am searching for the relatives of Anthony Flannery who was born in Ballina, County Mayo. His parents were Thomas Flannery and Bridget Killgallen. He had two brothers Martin James Flannery and Thomas that emigrated to the United States. He also had a sister Catherine that emigrated to the United States. Martin ( my grandfather) passed away In 1950 before I was born. I’m not sure if there were other siblings.
Martin was born circa 1881.

J K: I located a civil birth record for a John Flannery in 1891. See seventh record. https://civilrecords.irishgenealogy.ie/churchrecords/images/birth_retur… I found the family in the 1901 census in Carrowcastle under the surname Flannelly. http://www.census.nationalarchives.ie/pages/1901/Mayo/Sallymount/Carrow… Back to Flannery in 1911 http://www.census.nationalarchives.ie/pages/1911/Mayo/Sallymount/Carrow… Bridget indicates eight children with six living in 1911.

The 1891 and 1911 are the Flannery family I am related to. The 1901 census is a different family, Flannelly, and a different address. My Martin Flannery had already emigrated to the US BY 1901. I would appreciate if you could find more on Anthony and John. I also wonder why Catherine was not listed in any census. Could you see if you could find her birth record as well as Martins.

JK: I found Anthony in 1883 See last record NOTE surname was shown as Flannelly https://civilrecords.irishgenealogy.ie/churchrecords/images/birth_retur… Unable to find Catherine or Martin. I'm guessing Catherine had already emigrated by 1901 unless she was living with another family in 1901. www.irishgenealogy.ie is a free site I would suggest that you search in the Ballina registration district for Flannery and Flannelly births/marriage and deaths.

I know that there can be variations in the name but that is not the Anthony I am looking for. That Is Anthony Flannelly who is from the other Carrowcastle family not the one I am looking for. The first names match but not the address and not the ages. If you find anything on Anthony Flannery perhaps in later censuses I would appreciate it.

JK: Are you saying that there were two Thomas Flannery/Bridget Kilgallon couples in that area of Mayo? Kilgallen/Kilgallon was not a very common surname. Roger

I was wrong. This is the Anthony Flannery I was looking for. Thank you. I can account for five of the children : Anthony, Martin, Thomas, John and Catherine. I don’t know if the sixth child was a boy or girl. If you could try to find the birth records in the sixth child and Catherine I would appreciate it.
