I am trying to find any info on the above names. What I do know is:
Johanna was born to Mary Carney in 1889, Dungarvan Workhouse, Ireland
(father not named).
Mary Carney and her daughter Johanna somehow managed to get to Wales from Ireland ( do not know when).
It is believed that Mary Carney married a Jeremiah Keane ( whether in Ireland or Wales is not known) and Johanna took the Keane surname.
Johanna ( Annie as she was known) later married John Burke in Wales ? Mythr Tidfil.
Any info would be appreciated
Thank you
Josie

They didn't marry until 1919. Have you checked the 1901 and 1911 Irish census to see if they are still in Ireland? If you don't have this certificate it's a good idea to get it as it may have other family members names as witnesses.

Marriages Jun 1919 (>99%)
