Hi. Dick,
Thank you for your efforts regarding Purcells and Keatings in Paradise
township,but unfortunately they are not my direct relatives but they
could be relatives of my relatives, if you know what I mean.
My family line is as follows: my great grandmother was Margaret
Purcell and she married Michael Woulfe in Limerick in 1863. Margaret
Purcell's parents were William Purcell and Margaret Keating. They were
all born in Ireland.
Kindest regards Frank Wolfe
