Trying to find O'Keefe

ProfilePosted byOptionsPost Date

Trying to find any information on the Keefe/O'Keefe family who moved from Ireland to Middlesbrough in early 1870's. Margaret, I believe was the eldest, born in Cork, others following all born Middlesbrough were Mary, Ann, David, John (gt g-father), Ellen and Jeremiah. I know a bit about the latter 3 but not much about older 3. I would also like to know more about their parents: father James Martin known as Martin and their mother I believe was called Ellen Crinnans(sp), but have never found out anything on that name. I believe Martin may have been from Limerick or Charlieville in Ireland. The name was interchangeable between Keefe and O'Keefe. Any info much appreciated.
