This is an interesting though very confusing thread
I have done a wee timeline as I was getting lost & the sums are not adding up for me either

Bartholomew Doosey married Maria Hurley 15 the April 1875 kinswayBut continuing with births with Mary from Sinann Reply #25
Maria/Mary 18 April 1875
Joannes/John 11 March 1877
Joanna 22 June 1879
Then…6 yrs after the 1875 Marriage (in between the above births)……
Maurice 1 July 1881 Kilcalf
Eliza 3 July 1883 Kilcalf
Margaret 14 April 1885 Kilcalf
Bart 5 Nov 1886 Kilbeg
Unknown born 3 pm and Patrick born 3.30pm April 1889 Kilcalf. There are deaths of an unknown and a Patrick aged 0 1889 not online yet
Thomas 1 Dec 1890 Kilcalf
Then……
Maurice Hurley witnessed Bartholomew Doocey s death in 1894 but Brigid has him dying 1900 (from somewhere) & there's another mention he died 1891.
Bartholomew died...
1891
1894
1900
Are the dates all referring to the same man?
Maurice would have been 13 yrs old (would a 13 yr old do this)?
Then Mary (1st wife) dies 1900
My guess is it has to be different families but there's no mention of ages supporting 3 deaths for Bartholomew i.e. that needs investigated & were these deaths all in the same area or spread?
Just thought it was easier to grasp but still not making sense
My references & comments are not meant in any bad way, simply putting all info. I see in one place along with my thoughts.
Sinann & Bridgid doing a great job plucking here to get to the bones
