You are right, I did mean 1930!
While I have done a lot of searching of the Glin Catholic parish records (1851to about 1880 ish) I don't recall seeing the name Pegum, but I just checked the 1901 census when Stephen,49, and his sister Mary were living at Caharagh and four children, Stephen J 13, James 10, Joseph P 8, nephews and Anne M 7 niece. All were RC and born in Limerick, not necessarily Glin. I also checked out the 1911 census and as well as the ages not being consistent there were the same number of Pegums in Limerick,18 with the two children, 7 and 5, of George and Margaret born in Sydney NSW, an Australian connection. ( Probably quite unconnected but I am sure years ago I saw Pegums as the name of a restaurant in the Blue Mountains, about 2 hours west of Sydney!). Could be worth checking NSW BDM records for Pegums. Interestingly in March 1848 the owner of Cahara House, Glin, Richard Sleeman, had the house which I presume to be where the Pegums were living later, up for sale. The advert was copied in the same journal and showed the house to be quite grand - 2 drawing rooms, a dining parlour, 7 sleeping apartments, hall and office. Good luck with your research.
