It is probably that these Keanes would match the group of Keanes in the Cain DNA project that have the South Irish Modal Haplotype. We have also found one Kane with the North West irish Modal Haplotype, apparently descended from Kanes transplanted from Ulster. Given that Limerick is next to Clare, we would also expect to find some O'Ceins (who also became Keane) with the Irish Type 3 Modal Haplotype. All it takes to find out is a male line Keane, and join the Cain DNA project at www.familytreedna.com/public/Cain-Caine and joina bunch of enthusiastic amateurs.
