Her name was actually Catherine , her mother was Kathleen although I see on the above they use that and Catherine.  The family were monumental stone masons, trading, I think as Byrnes - no Farrells - in Prospect Place adjacent to Glasneven cemetery where I believe Peter Hynes built a row of cottages to house his whole family as adults.  The Conmeys have an English branch, last members now living in Oxford, but I believe were originally based in Birmingham. My mother was the second of five – Desmond RAF, Carl/Karl one-time monk and rubber plantation manager, Turlough (Edward) RAF, died in Canada I think, all contact lost with his family of 4 or 5 daughters, and Ivy, recently deceased and survived by 3 daughters !
