Iam a Kiernan, and on a 1989
visit to Carrigallen , I met a Mrs. Bernard Murray whose maiden name was Kiernan.She was not related to me through my father's side but on my mother's, who was a Doyle! She has a number of children:sons Francis and Gerald, several daughters,Patricia,etc.
Other relatives in Carrigallen are the Joseph Doonans.
Mrs.murray was approx 60 then as a guess.
Joe Doonan is/was a prominent track and perhaps also a swimming coach.
My dad's Kiernans were from Cork but I believe his forebears were from Cavan or near Leitrim
