Member Since: July 2011 Posts: 4 Send Message	Hello, I am new to this and would appreciate any help finding my ancestors. My father's family was from Kildare in Ireland. His father was John Arthur Ernest Hendley and his mother was Agnes O'Neill. They were married in Athy and had 7 children. I have traced my great grandfather and great great grandfather but can't get any further at present. I know even less from the O'Neill side, just that Agnes's father was called Michael O'Neill. Any tips or information would be great and I take my hat off to anyone who can get their heads easily, around genealogy. Kind regards Kerry

	Researching: Old genealogists never die.....they just lose their census.
