is there any way of tracing my in-laws,who were from CO.CARLOW?

Have found my husbands' grandfather MICHAEL CURRAN.,g/mother ELIZABETH(believe nee LAKES,from LEIGHLINBRIDGE.,CARLOW)

In 1901 irish census they lived at no.11 BOHERDUFF.,FENNAGH.,CARLOW,with sons CHARLES and JOHN(my late father-in-law)and daughters FRANCES(Fanny).,CATHERINE(Katie)and MARY.

In 1911 censusthey lived at no.12 BOHERDUFF.

There were also neighbours in BOHERDUFF...THOMAS & JOHN CURRAN.

How would I go about finding out if these two Currans were related to Michael?

Would appreciate any help at all.
