Well you are very lucky that this RC has some Deaths!  http://registers.nli.ie/parishes/0152 might get some early stuff.

http://registers.nli.ie/registers/vtls000632389#page/77/mode/1up gets Henry/Mary but no more info. (below 3rd X on Page!)

Yup thats the same scan http://registers.nli.ie/registers/vtls000632389#page/77/mode/1up gets Henry/Mary but no more info. (below 3rd X on Page!) which I got in Dublin at archives ....it is great that info is online now...  wish they had put his fathers name on.... I suppose next port of call is back to parish?....O'Briens in Leitrim/Roscommon were scarce as a family name in those counties....albeit there was another (unrelated - I think anyways) Henry O'Brien there....

OK.. was talking to a cousin of a cousin of your cousins, the O'Brien g/stone at Kiltoghert is 100% part of your lot and are 100% connected to the Gibbons!

So, you now have 3 names/dates to look up for Deaths and see who their father was!

The O'Briens are still living in the old homestead!

Wow....! That is amazing...I also have found out, tonight,  that Sarah is buried in aughrim graveyard in hill street Roscommon (she would be my Grandads Sister). See attached.

I really wouldn't know anything of their history...
