In a previous post I described the family of Denis Donovan of Lissalohorig and Catherine Collins, who was from Lower Lissane. That post suggested that Catherine was the daughter of Humphrey Collins of Lower Lissane and Johanna Barnane. Johanna was probably from Drinagh.
The known Donovan family consisted of six daughters and one son. So far, I have not been able to follow up on daughters Julia, Johanna, and Catherine and son Cornelius. Some information has been found about the remaining daughters.
The Bohanes of Killadery
Mary Donovan of Lissalohorig (b 1852) married John Bohane 26 Feb 1884. In addition to Killaderry, Castlehaven, it appears the family spent some time in Callaros Oughter, Goleen. Among their known children were:
Jeremiah (1885), born in Killaderry.
Patrick (about 1886, haven't found birth rec)
Norah, or Hanora (about 1887, haven't found birth rec)
Mary (1889), was born in Callaros Oughter.
The McCarthys of Mohanagh
Hanora Bohane (bc 1887) married John McCarthy 09 Feb 1922. The family lived in Mohanagh, Aghadown.
The McCarthys of Lissalohorig
Mary Bohane (1889) married Daniel McCarthy 13 Apr 1920. They were in Lissalohorig at the time. Their daughter Mary Philomena went on to marry Patrick Caverly of Cooranuller.
The Hegartys of Bluid West
Hanora Donovan of Lissalohorig (1855) married Daniel Hegarty of Bluid 10 Feb 1891.They had a son John (bc 1892, haven't found birth rec) and a daughter Maria (b 1895). This family was in the 1901 census.
By 1911, Daniel Hegarty was a widower.
Daughter Maria Hegarty married Denis McCarthy 24 Nov 1927. They may have lived in Angram and had a number of children, but this line of investigation has not yet been pursued.
The Lordans of Drishanebeg
Ellen Donovan of Lissalohorig (1864) married Cornelius Lordan of Drishanebeg 29 Jan 1898. As far as is known, they had one son, Patrick John, about 1901.
