Not sure if this is significant or not but someone may be able to help

Maria Collins birth 1877 - Errew

Agnes Ann Collins birth 1878 - Erriff

There is a marriage here
1875 Ann Collins Erriff - Father John Collins occupation ‘Lodge’

There seem to be 3 Erriffs in civil parishes, Turlough; Bekan and Aghagower.

I would favour Turlough but with no good reason other than area.

From the other thread....


Anne married Michael Collins who was born around 1850 and lived in Errew.
-They married in Ballysakeery Church in 1875.

Yes, I got the children’s names from that thread.
The marriage certificate shows Ann Walsh from Ballybroony which is Ballysakeery Parish.
Michael Collins gives Errew as place of residence.
