Dear Kathy,
Hi - my great-grandfather was Jeremiah McCarthy born in
1873 in Tullough, Inchigeelagh. His parents were Charles
McCarthy & Juliana Lanktree (or Lantry). His brothers &
sisters were: Margaret, Mary Anne, Julia, John, Charles,
Elizabeth, Ellen, Catherine, James & Eugene. Charles
McCarthy was born in 1840 to Jeremiah McCarthy & Margaret
Tyner in Shiplough, Dunmanway. Charles "married into" the
farm in Tullough, which had been the property of his father-
in-law, Thomas Lanktree. The farm is still in my family. I
have reconnected with both my McCarthy & O'Leary families
in Inchigeelagh & have so far met 58 cousins. I am going to
Ireland on May 23rd. Let me know if I can do anything for
you while I'm there.
Regards,
Kathleen
