I found Grandma (Bronsan)Hanifin’s parents and Grandmother on the Doonties west section of the 1901 census. Here they are.
Living in Doonties West on April 1 1901.
Mary (Griffin)Ashe, Mother (of Johanna), Can’t read, age 50, Farmer, Widow, speaks both Irish and English. this is my GGGrandmother.
Johanna Ashe, son of Mary, reads & writes, age 24, Farmers daughter, n/married, speaks both Irish and English. This is my GGrandmother.
John Ashe, R&W, age 21, Farmers son, n/m, speaks both Irish and English.
Bridgit Ashe, R&W, age 19, Farmers daughter, n/m, speaks both Irish and English.
Thomas Ashe, R&W, age 17, Farmers son, n/m, speaks both Irish and English.
Patrick Griffin, Servant, R&W, age 36, Farm servant, speaks both Irish and English. (I suspect this is Mary Griffin-Ashe’s brother or nephew. That came to help out with the farm after father Gregory Ashe died)(This is the Gregory Ashe that I think links up with the Big John Griffin-Gregory Ashe family tree that is well documented.)

Hi,
My great grandmother was Catherine Hanafin and she lived in Brosna. Her family lived there also. My Mom told me they are all buried there. She is also associated with Knocknagoshel in Kerry. Her relatives were the Griffin’s. One of the Grifffin’s was a famous poet. Catherine Hanafin married Jermiah Piggott in around 1871 at the age of 17. I believe her Father’s name was Michael. I know Catherine had brothers named John, Michael and I think Thomas. Her brothers went to Endicott, New York and Binghamton, New York.
