Kerry List Reidys
My ggf Jeremiah Reidy, emigrated from Kerry in 1872. I have been engaged in researching the family since the 1970s and have discovered a whole raft of Reidys from Castleisland. There were over 100 families with the name Reidy in Kerry on the 1901 or 1911 Census.
My Jeremiah came from Meenleitrim North townland just north of Castleisland. Meenleitrim North and South were located in Brosna Catholic Parish until 1916 until the western, Castleisland portion of that parish split off from Brosna and formed Knocknagoshel Catholic parish.
Here is a list of what I have found on the Kerry list and the people researching them. Unfortunate-ly, as many as there are, I haven't been able to put much together.
