Much more likely that the priest meant that Dubliners are strange folk!  :D

I think you mean Rossiter.

That would make more sense. It does show as Possiter but the stroke may have faded.
Transcribed as Possiter too (because that’s how it reads  :) )

Is this fact or fiction? The parish registers all exist.

Hi Wrightey1961,
Yes, I am well aware of Michael Fenlon. I have not been able to find a connection yet.  Surprisingly, I have not been able to find a good source about his descendants. Does anyone know where I can find this?

Hi Wrightey1961,

A list of (some of) his children and grandchildren with birth and death dates would be a great start. I cannot even find a list of the names of all of his children.
