I live on a farm that has been passed doen are family, that was once owned by a John Buckley, from Plunketstown, Castledermot, he was born 1833 his farther was Michael Buckley died 17 may 1855 Mother Mary Nowlan (Nolan) Died 5 October 1851, both buried in Killelan Church Yard under an iron cross.

John also paid for the passage of a cousin James Nowlan, and he was related to Garrett Stynes, how married his arnty also a Nowlan.

His best friend in ireland was Danial Kelly of Plucketstown.

I have may letters from Ireland to John and I also have his personal diaries and papers.
