Seeing help in finding the parents and birth location of my ggrandfather William Couche and wife Ellen Crone, who were married in St Finbar's (South) Cork City in 1837, Ireland.
Their son Richard Couche married Margaret Crone 1844-1906 Baldwin St Brigown, Mitchelstown Cork and had about 13 children he was a loan officer. Margarets parents Honora Roache abt 1813 -post 1871 Melbourne Australia and Thomas Crone 1811-1871 of same address. I am also interested in finding Honora Roaches parents both of this couple both noted on the Peerage pages as is Thomas father. Their children were Elizabeth 1834, Ann 1838, Richard 1841 m Kate Callaghan, Thomas abt 1842 and Margaret Crone 1844 and one I could not find
William Couche Jnr 1845-1913 their second son, married Mary Ann Mc Carthy 1845-1914 were my great grand parents. He became Super Intendant of Police, dying in East Ballarat Victoria. I suspect Ellen Crone abt 1812 may have been related to Honora Roache Crone but cant yet prove this as yet as both sons children have similar middle names.
I did find a William and Ellen Couche born about 1782 from Gosport Hampshire with son William born there in 1813, but I cant progress any further
I have hit a bit of a brick wall and would appreciate your assistance in finding my relatives. many thanks in advance, Jen Solity

Your help is much appreciated I will add them to my family tree. I believe Richard and Margaret Crone his wife should be added to the Peerage Pages given their grandparents who are on it namely Honora Roache c1810-post 1871 and Thomas Crone 1811-1871 Unfortunately there has been a mistake on these pages in attributing Thomas Crone birth to Clutterbuck Crone his brother on these pages I expect Richard Couche's family should also be added to these pages Does anyone know how I might be able to do this a sthe person to email does not answer my emails
