Individual Details

Elizabeth (Lily) HANRAHAN

(10 Oct 1897 - 10 Nov 1943)

Lily's baptismal sponsors were Jeremiah Hanrahan and Mary Hudson.

Prior to her marriage to Paddy, Lily's parents had arranged a marriage between her and someone else. However, Lily and Paddy had fallen in love, so they eloped. After their marriage they lived in Kilbaha where their first child was born. The move to Urlee in Lisselton (in about 1923) came about because they bought or were given the farm of Lily's uncle Mike Buckley and his wife, Maria (née Kissane) who had no children.

Lily and Paddy were second cousins once removed as Paddy's great-grandfather Bryan Cunningham and Lily's grandmother Margaret (Peg) Cunningham were brother and sister.

Lily was only 46 years of age when she died (of "bronchial asthma").
