"Dark Rosaleen"

[Sinann]

I only looked in the 60s
I was looking for Mount Daisy
it's in the townland of Cloondeash

Yes, that's what I did Sinann.

As Anne, baptised 1872  was dismissed as too young,  I thought I would look for the time frame suggested by the censuses.

Griffiths shows a Michael and a Thomas in Cloondeash and either the same Thomas or another nearby in Derrinlevaun.

I am sure I will get this wrong somewhere and I stand to be corrected but I will give it a try.
Laurence Moraghan born 1867 the son of Michael Moraghan & Cecilia Walsh is the father of Lawrence Moraghan born 1896 who married Bridget Julia Morahan in 1920 (I have certificate copies for all this)
Bridget Julia Morahan born 1891 was the daughter of Patrick Morahan born 1862 the son of Michael Morahan & Mary Morahan & Honoria Morahan born about 1866 the daughter of Michael Morahan and an unknown mother (again certificate copies for this)
I am not sure where this is taking me other than into more confusion because I can see three lines going back to two people, for me this really needs drawing out so that is anything else I had planned for tomorrow written off. - GedB

[heywood]

Yes, please write it down 

I am sorry, I was thinking that Honoria was the daughter of Michael and Mary 

So is she more likely to be the daughter of Michael and Celia?

[heywood]

I think it might be the Michael & Mary link for her parents because one of her daughters marries into the Michael & Cecilia family - GedB

This is where I got the idea that Honoria was the daughter of Mary.

[Sinann]

I wonder if Honoria could be her second name and she was baptised by her first and than didn't use it. It's bugging me that we can't find her baptism.

To try and put a time frame on the families
Michael and Cecilia married in Feb 1856

Michael and Mary married in June 1861

[heywood]

If, as in reply 31's quote Michael and Mary are Honoria's parents then this is likely to be a daughter - Maria born September 1867 - so in that time frame.

I think it is Maria and not Martin.

I cannot see though, a civil birth
