Hello. I am searching for Catherine Larkin born circa 1887, Kilcolgan, Kings Co (Offaly).  She is in the 1911 census as single and living with her brother Michael (born 1879) and her sister in law Catherine Curley (1880-1939).  In a family obituary in 1922 she is listed as Catherine Egan of Kilcolgan, Ferbane, Ireland. 
 

I am trying to locate any information on her and any of her family. Any assistance would be greatly appreciated.  
 

Thank you. 
Terri

  • Terri,

    I think Catherine was born May 1886, parents were Michael Larkin, father Michael, and Ann Lyon, father James, who were married in 1876 in Kilcolgan, Ferbane, Offaly.

    Her brother Michael was married in 1910. Unfortunately, the father's name was not included.
