Anyone have any info on the above.  Father was James and one known son Peter born 1856/57. ::)

there's a possible match on the IFHF website (www.irish-roots.ie) :

  Church Baptism    Kavanagh    Peter    1854    Co. Wicklow   

this is using a search on Wicklow RC parish for a father James. There is one other Peter born in that timeframe (1852-1860) but does not seem to be in Wicklow parish.

it's a pay per-view-site (€5 per record) and these are parish register transcripts - there are no marriages available yet.

Hi JMF,

Sorry, I have really nothing further other than that Peter was born in Wicklow and that they moved to Reilly's Bridge, Cabra, Dublin sometime between 1854 and 1873 when their so Peter was married to Rose Reilly.  James occupation was listed as labourer on Peters marriage cert.
