[myluck!]

When Michael CURNIN died aged 79 on Oct 29 1890 aged 79 he was described as married and the informant was his son Peter LINK
LINK to probate
His wife Mary died on Aug 16 1893 LINK

Peter CURNEEN died Feb 28 1927 LINK aged 68 in Keelogues

According to the census returns he was living in
1901 at #5 Keeloges, Aghanlish LINK as CURNIN
1911 at #4 Keeloges, Aghanlish LINK

Looking at the births of the children (missing child is Maggie Jane b Mar 06 1898 d Jun 12 1900)
Jane's maiden name was WOODS

Peter CURNEN m Jane WOODS on Mar 04 1889 LINK

I had hoped to find a church record that shows both parents' names but cannot

More of the family married in Glenade RC Church but again the records are not expansive
Sarah CURRYNAN m James MITCHELL Oct 09 1864
Mary CURNEEN m John FOWLEY on Aug 18 1875
Bridget CURNEEN m Patrick CONNOLLY on May 26 1881
John CURNIN m Bridget McGOWAN on Nov 23 1882
All are mentioned in Michael's will dated Oct 27 1890

Bryan CURNIN d Dec 12 1891 aged 50 and unmarried

There is a slight possibility that a cousin or relative named as a sponsor could provide a clue

Also there is a family tree on ancestry with a few more names of siblings listed
This shows Mary's last name as KEENAN or KEOHAN

When Francis of Largy Donnell, Rossinver, Rosclogher, Leitrim, Ireland died in 1882 his Death was registered by his brother Michael.....and his Will names Michael and Peter of Keelogues as executors.

I am very grateful for everyones input here. The most important new leads here are that Francis may certainly be a brother of Michael. The other new leads are that Francis had children John, Honor and Francis.

Interestingly, if this is correct his daughter Honor was named after his mother, also Honor.

Finally, his wife may be Mary Elliott

Many thanks

I've been able to find children Honor, Michael and Francis Curneen born of Francis Curneen and Mary Elliott but although John Curneen was mentioned in his fathers Will I cannot find a birth or census entry.

All the BDM'S can be got via Link posted, better than having incorrect ones posted and going off in a tangent.

Plus these may be in Church Registers?
