The dates for Mary married to Henry and for Patrick married to Sarah/Sally Corney means they are the same generation.
This means they may be either siblings or cousins.
To add to our difficulties there is another Mary Meenkeeragh (died 4th April 1865) who was married to John Barr of Bauville and begs the question of her relationship to Patrick?
Susan Meenkeeragh (died 17th January 1909) who was married to Johnnie Ownes; I believe to be a sister of Mary d. 1865) who was married to John Barr. So what then was the relationship of sisters Mary and Susan to Patrick?
I am saying that Mary who married Henry was not a sister of Patrick. Patrick was likely a brother of Mary and Susan so what then is the relationship of Mary who married Henry to siblings Patrick; Mary; and Susan?
In Griffiths Valuation in Meenamullaghan there is both a Henry Doherty and a Patrick Doherty. Is the Henry Doherty your “Wee Harry” or his father.
Am now working on all the families and awaiting the 1926 Census. We will never get the answers to all we would wish to know.
