Details

BirthMichael Reynolds was born before 20 Sep 1853 at Clooneagh, Mohill Civil Parish, Co Leitrim, Ireland. The Censuses give us estimated birth years of 1854 and 1855. His stated age at death also gives us 1854. A Michael Reynolds was baptised in Bornacoola in 1854 to parents Michael and Ellen McLoughlin. He also had a sister Elizabeth, but she was born in 1868 and that does not seem compatible with what is known about her.
Another Michael Reynolds was baptised in 1853 to parents Michael and Catherine McGarry. There is no record of an Elizabeth born to this couple. Nevertheless, as outlined under Patrick McGarry, thought to be the father of Catherine, it is taken that Catherine McGarry was Eliza Reynolds' mother and also, obviously, mother of Michael - and if so, this date of baptism is by no means incompatible with the calculated years of birth.

BaptismHe was baptized on 20 Sep 1853 at Bornacoola R.C. Parish, Mohill Civil Parish, Co Leitrim, Ireland. The sponsors names are not transcribed on the record.
MarriageMichael Reynolds married Anne Kelligher, daughter of Edward Kelligher and Celia Farrell, on 5 May 1884 at Bornacoola R.C. Church, Knockadrinan, Mohill Civil Parish, Co Leitrim, Ireland; The witnesses were William Prunty and Ann Kelligher.
DeathMichael Reynolds died on 30 Apr 1923 at Clooneagh, Mohill Civil Parish, Co Leitrim, Ireland .
He was shot in his own home in Clooneagh during the 'troubles'. His son John T. was apparently active on one side in the Civil War, and it is said that the other side shot Michael because of this.

It appears that a short time, perhaps a week or two, before Michael was killed, the IRA called to the house one night but ran away when Michael's son, John Tom, shot at them from within the house.
Some days later, another raiding party came, and this time they shot through the door. Michael was hit by a ricocheting bullet.

This apparently made such an impression locally that many people, including Sean Bohan's mother, used to remember things by referring to "The year Mick Reynolds was shot.". He was survived by his widow Anne Kelligher. The informant was his son John T Reynolds.

The witnesses were John Doyle and Mary Conboy. When John Doyle married Mary Diffley in 1924, a John Reynolds of Clooneagh acted as 'Best Man'. It seems reasonable to conclude that this was John Tom and it does seem as if they must have been close at this point.

Details

BirthBernard Kilrane was born circa 1788 at Co Armagh, Ireland. He was reputed to be aged 112 when he died in 1900. If not born in Armagh, he was probably born in County Down.
MarriageBernard Kilrane married Mary Shanley after 1830 at Mohill Civil Parish, Co Leitrim, Ireland.
MarriageBernard Kilrane married Mary Ann Kelly on 15 Aug 1844 at Longford R.C. Parish, Longford, Co Longford, Ireland. The identification of this as the correct marriage date and place is based on firstly finding a record that so closely matches and secondly the information from Gerry Kilrane that Mary Ann was from Killashee in Longford.
DeathBernard Kilrane died on 29 Aug 1900 at Tawnagh More, Cloone Civil Parish, Co Leitrim, Ireland. His age at death, on Registrar's records, was 111 years. The cause of death was Old Age. Apparently, the night before he died, Barney, although chatting away normally with the usual callers, sent out to the town for a supply of drink and tobacco. He later died in his sleep.
BurialBernard Kilrane was buried on 30 Aug 1900 at Mohill Graveyard, Mohill, Mohill Civil Parish, Co Leitrim, Ireland.
