Yes, there is a story of ten (?) being killed in the Great War 1914-18 and I am trying to research it. William Furey was born in Tynagh c 1850.

Hi Patrick, I am also related as my great grandmother was a Furey from Loughrea. We will be at Garrybreeda Cemetery on 15 June  2018, noon,  as a memorial to Mary Ward Furey Mother of the soldier brothers.  Please attend if you can.
