I am interested in this Bridget Keane as a possible sister of Miles and maybe Michael. Miles was tried in Ennis court in 1847 and the notes of the trial indicate three sisters who were still in Clare at the time Margaret, Nora and Bridget. No mention was made of the parents. Perhaps this is the same Bridget.
Does anyone else have information pertaining to this Bridget or her siblings please.
