Pardon me, I only get to check in very occasionally. Pressure of work. Many thanks for all the responses.
In that last list, Charles Cobbe of Bellegrove interests me. He appears to have been a 'cottier' and/or a 'porter.' However, he is mentioned with two different wives' names, Elizabeth and Anne. I am sure he is the same Charles, and she may be the same wife, but I wonder? I assume the 1801 baptism is a transcription error, more likely 1807?
The earliest semi-verified Charles Cobbe I have died in 1861, age 63, from Killimy in Emo. Charles would have been born circa 1798, and if he were the eldest (there were at least three, maybe four generations of Charles Cobbe) then this would kind of tie in with your given baptisms of 1803, 1805, 1807(?) and 1810 for the 2nd-5th children. However, I have a DNA connection with the line of a William Cobbe, born circa 1782, who I figured, on DNA evidence, to be an elder brother of Charles, so that confuses things greatly.
An earlier burial appears in the Coolbanagher records of Charles Cobbe in 1846, age 88, from what I read as 'Killinatogher.' This I now figure most likely to be Kilmalogue. Is this the Charles Cobbe from Belleville, I ask myself? But Belleville is quite a distance from Kilmalogue, and Kilmalogue I would have thought was Portarlington rather than Coolbanagher. Maybe Kilmalogue is wrong.
It's all very sketchy. Would anyone have any opinions on it all? Where did those 1803-1812 baptisms come from, the RCB library?
Many thanks.
