I didn't have Ellen's parents names, the only information I have come by is via Craig Fullerton's website. I would love any more information that you have about the Jordan and Feeheny families.

His Australian WW1 war records say he was born in Dromcollogher Co Limerick in1884. His parents names were also James Michael Ryan and Bridget Reedy but no further info given than that. If anyone knows anything further, we would love the info.E Rhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01744909983561478955noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6561249004966522983.post-81471733955369848512021-03-21T17:50:40.946+00:002021-03-21T17:50:40.946+00:00I'm from Kentucky USA.

Their first child was born in County Limerick (Michael) 11/17/1869. No doubt, Father William O'Donnel (Parish priest from 1843-1876) either presided over their wedding or knew of it. I'd estimate their wedding occurred around the early to mid 1860's. I really appreciate this wonderful information.

The sad story of the fire at the cinema with the stone memorial at the front gate to the church property, with all the names of the victims, including Norah HANNIGAN, who would be my cousin, will always hold a special place in my heart, even though I live thousands of miles away in Scarborough QUEENALAND AUSTRALIA. Yes that whole area of Dromcollogher, Broardford, Tulleylease, etc, etc, Holds a very special place in my very being, knowing that I am a product of the "IRISH SOIL". Hopefully my visits to this land of my forebears are NOT over yet, maybe when this Covid---19 Pandemic is over I will be able to return to this land of my Irish Heritage once again. Blessings to Patrick Comerford and to the people of Dromcollogher from this man in far off AUSTRALIA. WILLIAM (BILL)PATRICK HANNIGAN. Queensland 4020 Australia.
