In Limerick, the Minihan family had a close relationship to the Keane family, but we didn't know exactly what the connection was. When Annie Tuite married John Minihan, a Julia Tuite served as witness. And when Daniel Tuite married Annie Lee, a Charles Keane served as witness. This was the only lead we had.
We have now discovered that Edward Tuite had a sister named Julia born around 1848 in Dublin. She married William Keane in 1869 in Limerick City. Based on the 1901 census, they had at least 6 children - Julia, Charles, Mary Ellen, Catherine, Harriet, and Elizabeth. At one time, they lived at 18 Roxboro Road. By the 1911 census, it appears that Julia (Tuite) Keane had passed away.
