Children's ages way off on census
http://www.rootschat.com/links/01h4u/
That's good.
I saw a Mary A Breen in the RC Register that seemed to fit but the years didn't fit with the census so I was thinking either I had her incorrect or the ages were out, but I didn't have time to work it out.

Hi,
I'm new to this but saw your Dunnes Clonehurk posts. First mention of them after trawling the net for years! I too am related to these Dunnes, I think. My GGGrandfather William Dunne was a brother of Daniel Dunne although his death certificate notes Kath Moore and James rather than Eliza Moore and James as his parents, but a James, son of James and Kath also resided in Clonehurke in 1901. (William emigrated to NZ in 1875)
I'm off to Ireland soon to try to find more info, so any info you may have I would appreciate, and I will share what i find.

Hi , I too researched the clonehurke dunnes for years , my great grandmother Margaret was a daughter of Daniel and Mary Breen , sadly I never found a marriage cert for them , so don't have Daniels parents , they had a large family and I found all the kids births easily enough , I have had my ancestry DNA done but not much dunne info found , I have a tree on ancestry. Com which hopefully I can direct you too ,I will look into it after work today , cheers john

There is a Michael Dunne in Castleconor in Griffith's Valuation print date 1850. A possible father or grandfather!
