Descendents of John Cornelius Nestor and Bridget Earls from Kilshanny

Seven of John and Bridget Nestor's eight children left their farming life in "the lovely green vales of Kilshanny", County Clare. One, whose name has been forgotten, went to Australia and the other six settled in New England. They and their offspring found work in factories, railways, police, domestic service, and show business. Some served in the armed forces. Their lives were unexceptional with illnesses and domestic upheaval touching parts of the family.
