My knowledge of the Veale name of Ardmore area is limited.
The name KIELY has lead me to the Veale name.I'm not sure if yours is the same as the one I know some info.
The Veales I know seem to have been from Ballynaharda Townland, just outside of Ardmore.This rural area around
Ardmore is called Old Parish.I don't have my info in front of me so I'm going on what's in my head.
My Kiely family is from Ballymacart Townland of Old Parish.
We think the house on that land was used as the post office of Old Parish up to the 1960s.A Veale family ran the post office, two sisters.They were from the Ballynaharda Veale's.
There's more to this story.I will write to your email or you can write to mine, too.
