Johanna (Sr. Mary Ellen) CUNNINGHAM was born 25 Nov 1895 in Kilbaha, Moyvane, Co. Kerry and was christened 27 Nov 1895 in Moyvane, Co. Kerry. She died 13 Aug 1989 in Concordia, Kansas.
Johanna's baptismal sponsors were Michael Stack and Mary Dore.
Johanna was also known as Hannie. She and her sister, Maggie, left Ireland in 1915 to join the Sisters of St. Joseph at Nazareth Motherhouse in Concordia, Kansas.
Ellis Island records (on www.ellisisland.org) show that the sisters arrived in New York on 12 September 1915 and were joining a "cousin", Bishop John Francis Cunningham, of Concordia, Kansas. It's not known how they may have been related to the bishop, who was born on 21 September 1842 in either Irremore or the neighboring townland of Mountcoal, both located near Listowel, to John Cunningham and Catherine Fitzgerald. The family emigrated to the United States when John was 12 years of age following their eviction from their farm in Mountcoal. John was ordained a priest in Leavenworth, Kansas, in 1865 and became bishop of Concordia in 1898 He died on 23 June 1919. According to an article in the Kerryman newspaper of 23 September 1961 on the dedication of the new Church of Our Lady of Fatima and St. Senan in Irremore, a Rev. P.J. Cronin, a grandnephew of the bishop's, donated a Rosary window to the new church in memory of his granduncle. Although Sr. Mary Ellen had second cousins who were Cronins (through the marriage of her great-aunt Johanna to Tom Cronin), I have unable to figure out how, if at all, Rev. Cronin might have been related to Sr. Mary Ellen. However if Rev. Cronin were one of Sr. Mary Ellen's second cousins, it would appear he was more distantly related to the bishop than a grandnephew.
Getting back to Sr. Mary Ellen, she was a nursing sister and worked in El Paso, Texas for a time before returning to Kansas to work in St. Anthony's Hospital in Concordia.+ 125 F iv Hanora (Nora) CUNNINGHAM was born 6 Dec 1896 and died 19 Feb 1988. 126 F v
Margaret (Sr. Mary Estelle) CUNNINGHAM was born 17 Apr 1898 in Kilbaha, Moyvane, Co. Kerry and was christened 18 Apr 1898 in Moyvane, Co. Kerry. She died 3 Oct 1987 in Concordia, Kansas.
Margaret's baptismal sponsors were not recorded on the parish register.
Margaret was also known as Maggie. She and her sister, Hannie, left Ireland in 1915 to join the Sisters of St. Joseph at Nazareth Motherhouse in Concordia, Kansas.
Sr. Mary Estelle, who was a nursing sister, worked for more than 30 years in St. Joseph's Hospital in Belvidere, Illinois. In 1973, due to frail health, she returned to Concordia where she continued to help with nursing duties.127 M vi
Thomas CUNNINGHAM was born 17 Apr 1898 in Kilbaha, Moyvane, Co. Kerry and was christened 18 Apr 1898 in Moyvane, Co. Kerry.
Thomas's baptismal sponsors were not recorded on the parish register.
It appears Thomas may have died very young as we have no account of his life beyond his baptism.128 F vii
Ellen CUNNINGHAM was born 17 Apr 1898 in Kilbaha, Moyvane, Co. Kerry. She died 17 Apr 1898 in Kilbaha, Moyvane, Co. Kerry.
Ellen died at birth. The date of birth I have been given for her by a family source is the same date of birth given on the baptismal records of two of her siblings. Could she have been a triplet?129 F viii
Eileen CUNNINGHAM was born 13 Aug 1899 in Kilbaha, Moyvane, Co. Kerry. She died 19 Jan 1988 in Askeaton, Co. Limerick and was buried in Ahavoher Cemetery, Gale Bridge, Moyvane, Co. Kerry.
Eileen is listed (as Ellie) in the 1911 census return for the household of her aunt Manie Dore in Moyvane South. In 1928 Eileen emigrated to the United States and settled in New York. She never married, and retired to Listowel where she lived with her sister Bridie.
+ 130 M ix John (Jack) CUNNINGHAM was born 1 Jul 1901 and died 7 Nov 1995. 131 F x
Bridget (Bridie) CUNNINGHAM was born 7 Apr 1904 in Kilbaha, Moyvane, Co. Kerry and was christened 9 Apr 1904 in Moyvane, Co. Kerry. She died 24 Nov 1982 in Listowel, Co. Kerry and was buried in Ahavoher Cemetery, Gale Bridge, Moyvane, Co. Kerry.
Bridie's baptismal sponsors were Jeremiah Kennelly and Elizabeth Kennelly.
Bridie was a nurse in London and later in Listowel District Hospital. In Listowel she spent many years working on night duty - she would do three months of 12-hour shifts, getting only a one or two day break before the next three-month cycle would start. Bridie lived on Court House Road in Listowel.
28. Johanna CUNNINGHAM (Johanna HUDSON , Margaret ) was born about 17 Jun 1854 in Kilbaha, Moyvane, Co. Kerry and was christened 19 Jun 1854 in Moyvane, Co. Kerry. She died 12 Dec 1927 in Kilbaha, Moyvane, Co. Kerry and was buried in Old Cemetery, Knockanure, Co. Kerry.

Johanna married William O'CONNOR, son of Patrick O'CONNOR / CONNORS and Mary DALTON (caution: not verified), on 12 Feb 1871 in Newtownsandes (Moyvane).

Patrick (Paddy Otter) O'CONNOR was born 20 Nov 1871 in Kilbaha, Moyvane, Co. Kerry and was christened 23 Nov 1871 in Moyvane, Co. Kerry. He died 9 Nov 1963 in Beenbrack, Lisaniskea, Knockanure, Co. Kerry and was buried in Old Cemetery, Knockanure, Co. Kerry.
Sponsors at Paddy's baptism were Edmund Cunningham and Honoria Cunningham.
Paddy was known as "Otter" because he had a passion for fishing. He lived into his early 90s and was still cycling up to shortly before his death.
Patrick married Hannah AHERN. Hannah was born in Moyvane, Co. Kerry. She died in probably Beenbrack or Lisaniskea, Knockanure, Co. Kerry and was buried in Old Cemetery, Knockanure, Co. Kerry.
Paddy and Hannah lived in Beenbrack in Lisaniskea, Knockanure. They had no children. The farm passed to a relative of Hannah's (perhaps a niece?) named Margaret Ahern who was married to a Joe Collins.133 M ii
Bryan O'CONNOR was born 5 Dec 1872 in Kilbaha, Moyvane, Co. Kerry and was christened 7 Dec 1872 in Moyvane, Co. Kerry. He died probably young.
Bryan's baptismal sponsors were Richard Cunningham and Margaret Cunningham.
There doesn't seem to be any recollection of Bryan as an adult. It's probable he died young.+ 134 F iii Mary Anne (Mainanne) O'CONNOR was born 6 Apr 1874 and died 11 Sep 1951. + 135 M iv John (Jack Bill) O'CONNOR was born 25 May 1876 and died 8 Nov 1959. + 136 M v Edmond (Eddie or Ned) O'CONNOR was born 24 May 1877 and died 25 Mar 1960. 137 M vi
Michael O'CONNOR was born 2 Jun 1880 in Kilbaha, Moyvane, Co. Kerry and was christened 5 Jun 1880 in Moyvane, Co. Kerry. He died 3 Mar 1912 in Kilbaha, Moyvane, Co. Kerry and was buried in Old Cemetery, Knockanure, Co. Kerry.
According to Michael's death certificate, he was aged 24 when he died in 1912, which would mean he was born in 1887 or 1888 rather than 1880. His headstone gives his age at death as 27, which would mean he was born in 1884 or 1885. Michael's baptismal record, showing his year of birth to be 1880, is the most dependable indication of date of birth (even moreso than birt certificates as births were often registered many months after the event whereas baptisms in Ireland at that time typically took place a day or two after the birth).
Michael died around the age of 30. I had been told by a family source that he died of a perforated appendix. However, according to his death certificate, he died from pneumonia.
30. Edward CUNNINGHAM (Johanna HUDSON , Margaret ) was born about 15 Nov 1856 in Kilbaha, Moyvane, Co. Kerry and was christened 17 Nov 1856 in Moyvane, Co. Kerry. He died 11 Jan 1924 in Chicago.
