Trying to find Kavanagh

Trying to find relatives of my Great grandmother Margaret Mary Kavanagh born 1899, in Kilkenny??. I think she had a brother called John who died young and a brother called Daniel who moved to the Durham area and was a coal miner. Margaret married James William Piercy in Ireland in the 20's and had children- Margaret(1922), Dorothy (1924), James William (my grandfather 1928-1999), John (1930-1946), Joseph Francis (1932-2001) and Esther who died in Infancy. The family moved to Birmingham UK in the 30's and lived in Sherlock Street, then at Thanet Grove and finally Frances St,Lozells. James William Snr. worked as a mechanic in West Brom, he died in 1971 and Margaret Mary in 1976. It is rumoured that Margaret's brother Daniel came to visit her in the 60's and was believed to be living in the Evesham area. Any help would be greatly appreciated as this is all I have to go on. Many thanks Nadia
