My earliest known Keating ancestors, William <br>Keating and Bridget Bartley(?) were in Philadelphia<br>about 1792. William left something in his will to a sister,<br>a sister, Catherine Byrne, in County Leitrim. <br>These facts are all that exist regarding<br>connection to the old country. I want to connect<br>my American line to Irish Keatings. Can anyone <br>help?<br> <br> <br>
