Helen...I would suggest that her surname would be Connolly/Coneely or
similar ....(spelling can be altered dramatically over the years)

You need to work back from your own family and ask how you know they came from the Co Clare...do you have any documentation/anything that may narrow down exactly where to search....
Did the couple stay in the Co Clare....?

HI Erin

This is what I searched for and sure enough three possible with the exact same spelling came up

Hanora CONOLE

Ooops......I didn't read the results correctly!


3 matches for the search criteria: CONOLE (plus variants) Hanora 1838-1848

Gins ...Could still be a "possibility" ...the Mcnamara surname is a Co Clare surname but Connelly (variants) less so....You also have the surname spelled with a "K"..eg Keneally
Will need for Helen to get back with what she has on the grandparents /g.grandparents....otherwise it would be like looking for a needle in a haystack.....
