Michael Keating's gravestone in Caledonia Ontario Canada is marked "A Native Of Aughrim Co. Galway". He was born in !814. In 1861 he was married to Ann Conor and living with two children Mary and Malachi. Both were born in Ireland, the youngest Malachi in 1840. I believe Michael to be a relative (brother?) of Martin and Thomas Keating. Thomas,my great granddad was born in Ireland circa 1828 and in Canada In 1850. Any information on these folks in your parish area would be greatly appreciated. I would love to come and pay my repects to any family, living or dead, in the area. All the best Paul Keating
