'unknown' CONNORS (male)

( - )

A descendant of unknown's granddaughter Bridget Connors (who married Pats O'Connor) tells me that, according to family lore, 'unknown', whose name may have been Denis, was born in the Dingle area of Co. Kerry and left there around 1760, settling initially in Seconglass, Mountcollins, Abbeyfeale, Co. Limerick. He was evicted from there so he moved on to Ballycommane, Tournafulla, Abbeyfeale. However, a brother of his named Jeremiah did at some point settle in Seconglass, along with two sisters, Mary and Bridget. I am told Mary married a Martin Leahy who lived next to the Connors' farm; Bridget married a Jack Ford from Milleen, Rockchapel, Co. Cork; and Jeremiah married a sister of Martin Leahy's. So far I have been unable to verify the above.
