If anyone has another name for this I'll change it. It's the first tune from this youtube http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=HTstKph-psQ . Willie Larkin says he got it from the playing of his father so I've listed it as Larkin's.
Here's it in D - whistle played can play this on a C whistle...

A confusion of two polkas? ~ A-part: "Johnny O'Leary's"

The A-part to this one is the A-part to a tune that was popularly played in sessions, all over, and via this recording:

"Music from Sliabh Luachra Volume 6: Jackie Daly - Traditional Accordion and Concertina Music from Sliabh Luachra"
Topic 12TS358
Released on CD by Ossian: OSSCD 30
& Green Linnet: GLCD3065
http://www.thesession.org/recordings/display/212

A set of 3 polkas ~
Track 1: "Tom Sullivan's" / "Johnny (O')Leary's" / "Jim Keefe's"

I'll see if I can put the pieces together later...
