I am currently looking for any information on my 3rd great grandparents Daniel Cooney (Coony) and Julia Sulivan
The only information I know for certain is that they have a daughter named Mary 04 Apr 1849, Kinsale 1849. She later moved to Wales with her husband Henry.
I found a marriage for Daniel and Julia - 17 November 1846 In KINSALE, Ireland
On the marriage, it states the witnesses are TIMY SULLIVAN and JOANAH SULLIVAN
I originally thought they may have been Julia’s parents, however, I haven’t been able to find any evidence of this.
If anyone can find any other information for me I would be eternally grateful. I am really struggling with this search.
Thank you

Julia’s baptism shows White Castle as the residence. It may be useful :-\

The marriage might be the same place - not sure.
This implies there is a townland, Whitecastle, but I can’t trace it.

Here's the area known as Whitecastle, approximately 5 km west of Kinsale.

...and here's Google Streetview of the Whitecastle tower.

It's at the boundary between the townlands of Ballinacurra and Tisaxon More.

...and maybe even in the townland of Ardcloyne.
