Individual Details

Catherine (Kitty) HEALY (caution: relationship to parents and siblings not verified)

(Abt 1829 - 29 Aug 1883)

Very sadly, Kitty died just three days after her 22-year-old son Tom. She was 54 years of age and had been suffering from tuberculosis.

Unfortunately we know little about Kitty's family, apart from the fact they were from Clontubrid (I have also seen Clontubrid spelled as Clountubrid, Cloontubrid and Cloontubbrid), near Listowel, Co. Kerry. However, based on DNA matching, it appears Kitty was closely related to Philip Healy who married Mary Carmody.

Healy is a very common surname throughout Ireland. For the most part, those bearing the Healy name today are descended from one of two Irish families, the Ó hEilidhe (from the Irish word "eilidhe" meaning "claimant") originally from south-east Sligo, and the Ó hEaladaighthe (from the Irish word "ealadhach" meaning "ingenious") from the parish of Donoghmore in Co. Cork. Given the proximity of Cork to Kerry, I imagine Kitty may have been a descendant of the Donoghmore Healys.
