Genealogy
Genealogy, Our focus on this website is to help O’Keeffe genealogist and family researchers find information about their O’Keeffe heritage. Currently there are several family trees of information that is continually update and maintained. There are over 20,000 names in the family tree. Additional names are added to the family tree as the source information is being cleaned up. The current O'Keeffe Clan family tree is located under the Genealogy tab .
The first family tree, started in 1996, is built from the queries and GEDCOMs that people have sent hoping to find more about their ancestors. An obituary information was added to the family tree in 2007. Many obituary notices contain hypertext links to the original source. There are several sources of obituary notices such as Legacy.com and RIP.ie. Recently, news articles have been added to the database. This includes information about living people such as political figures, artists and performers.
The Ireland 1901 and 1911 census has its own family tree. This family tree is unique in that it only contains O’Keeffes and includes many spelling variations. Unfortunately the family tree is only individuals, the family connections still need to be built. The purpose of this database is to make it easier to find O’Keeffes without having to search all the spelling variations.
