Denehy, Thomas, Daniel

If you haven't done so yet, you might want to look for an obituary for Daniel.  Sometimes they will mention a place in Ireland where the person is from or if there were any surviving siblings.   It's not clear from their website if they do obituary look-ups, but you might want to try contacting the Youngstown library:  http://www.libraryvisit.org/genealogy.aspx

There's a tree that gives Daniel's mother as Johana:  http://worldconnect.rootsweb.ancestry.com/cgi-bin/igm.cgi?op=GET&db=necarter&id=I23050

Hi Skipgirl,
You seem to know what you are doing. i on the other hand are having great trouble tracking my family tree. i'm hoping you can help me.
I'm not sure if my Denahy/Dennehy's are connected to these but I'm hoping you/someone can help my find the missing connection. The name seems to have been Denahy in Ireland but changed to Dennehy in Australia.
My GG grandfather was;
John William Denahy/Dennehy b.1838? in Churchtown? Parish, Cork (died 14/12/1916 in Melbourne); married Deborah Mary Haly/Healy b.7/5/1838 (died 5/12/1921 in Richmond Melbourne). Married 15/12/1858 in Milford, Freemont, Ireland. They immigrated to Australia in 1862. Their son Cornelius John b.31 oct 1858 in Church of Assumption, Mallow, immigrated to Australia at about 22yrs old. He was left with the Haly/Healy family.
John William's Death certificate has his mother as 'unknown Singleton'
The only Denahy/Singleton I could find is;
Cornelius Denahy/Dennehy b. 1810? In Mallow? Died 1862? In Kanturk? Married Catherine/Catharine Singleton  b. 1816?
They married 22/6/1834 in Churchtown Parish, Cork.
I have found a Catherine Denahy living in Ballybahallagh in 1853 Griffiths rego but no mention of Cornelius
Cornelius and Cath Singletons daughter Catherine bap 18 june 1835 in Liscaroll cert says they lived in Ballybahallagh, so possibly the same people. They also had a child Ellen bap.10 sept 1843 in Milford. I could not find any other children listed for them.
Hoping you can help me find the parents/siblings of John William, or find proof that Cornelius and Catherine are his parents.
Could you suggest what I should do next as I have exhausted the subscriptions I have I think and have searched all the records at the NLI. Also put posts on various sites without success.
i am very bad at tracking back through these posts. if possible please email me, ^(*)
Many thanks
Cherie
