I have posted several messages before working with incorrect oral history of this family. I now have some corrections.
Searching for any information on the family of Peter Phelan, b. @ 1820. Married to Catherine Carroll in Abbeyleix on 8 Jan 1854. They had the following children:
Mary, Ch. 7 Apr 1855, Castletown, County Laois
John, Ch. 30 Nov 1856, " "
Margaret, Ch. 19 Jan 1859, " "
Sarah, Ch. 6 Jan 1861, Abbeyleix, "
Catherine, Ch. 1 Aug 1863, Mountrath, "
Elizabeth, Ch. 1 Mar 1866, " "
Peter Phelan died @ 1866.
His widow Catherine married Timothy O'Callaghan in Mountrath on 6 Jan 1867. They had 4 children born in Mountrath:
Michael, Ch. 1 Mar 1868, Mountrath, County Laois
Augustine, Ch. 1 Apr 1869, " "
Catherine, 1 Oct 1870, " "
Antony, 1 Mar 1872, " "
At least 2 more were born in Dublin:
Agnes, B. 28 Oct 1877, New Kilmainham, Dublin
Daniel J., B. @ Jan 1876 " "
Patrick, @ 1877
Timothy, @ 1884
Most or all of the O'Callaghan branch (and possibly some of the Phelans)of this family emigrated to Brooklyn, NY in 1888. Michael O married Mary Phelan. Catherine O married Michael Hynes. Agnes O married William Kane.
Margaret Phelan married John Hempstead in Dublin in 1877. They later moved to England.
I have been able to find some information on the O'Callaghans, but had little success with the Phelans. I am hoping someone will recognize this extended family and contact me.
Mary
