My maternal grandfather, John McPoland, was born in Laurencetown in 1896. His father, also John was married to Annie Winstanley from Liverpool, and was himself the son of Thomas McPoland and Mary (or May) Byrne. 
I suspect I may have some relations in Laurencetown and would love to hear from anyone with any information.
