I thought I would wait until someone posted that  :)
The informant is Catherine Duignan, daughter, of ‘Sunnaghmore’, I think.
There is this one in 1901 in Sunnagh Beg but her maiden name seems to be McGuire so something is wrong.

There is a death here for Catherine McKeown - informant son Henry.
https://civilrecords.irishgenealogy.ie/churchrecords/images/deaths_returns/deaths_1896/05890/4670748.pdf

I think this is Henry’s family - he was deceased by 1901
http://www.census.nationalarchives.ie/pages/1901/Leitrim/Cloone/Drumharkan_Glebe/1476978/

I can’t find a marriage for Henry and Maria Glancy/Clancy about 1881 which would tell us his father’s name. I was trying to link him earlier to the Henry from Tithe App. Records to discount of confirm relationships.
The death record though may show his father is Michael.

I didn't see Catherine's death on the first doc - I saw Michael McKeone and Catherine Duignan was the informant but listed as his daughter?

I'm getting DNA matches that seems to indicate half-siblings involving a Henry but can't seem to figure it out. I'm related to those related to a Henry but Patrick's info doesn't indicate Henry was a brother, but Henry seems to be a son of Catherine Duignan.

... his Forrester's application indicated that his beneficiary was Bridget McKeon from "Renagowna, Bromad (sp?), County Leitrim." Not sure where that is or how they're connected, but the likely are.


Maybe Rinnagowna townland, east of Dromod:

That's probably it - the handwriting could easily be a "D" instead of a "B" for Dromod.

I think that's the same doc Heywood linked to - it looks good except it identifies Catherine as his daughter instead of his wife?

The following looks like the marriage of Patrick's parents in the Mohill RC parish registers, on 15 February 1843, (left page, 8th entry down), no location, just the names of the groom, bride and two witnesses:

https://registers.nli.ie/registers/vtls000632448#page/158/mode/1up

That looks plausible - I think I might have pulled that at one time, but I don't see it at hand. Thanks.
