Patrick and Margaret died in the US. We have found a obit for Patrick that just states what happened to him.
Still at a stand still finding their birth certificates or any siblings.
Thank you for all the suggestions.

If someone lived in the Knockavilla Parish and attended the Church of the Assumption in the 1800s, what is the name of the cemetery where they would most likely be buried?
Have found in research headstones tell you a lot. Looking for Ryan (needle in haystack), Aherne, and Heffernan from Glenough area clues.

We thought all the children came with them. In my research we found a birth certificate for a Cornelious Ryan. All the US records have no mention if him.
We are hoping to find siblings of both Patrick Ryan and Margaret Aherne. We also want information on their parents. We have parent names from their death certificates but no other info.
We have no leads on any of them.

Tipperary / Ryan/Aherne/Heffernan in Tipperary

Looking for any info as we've hit a wall

My maternal 2nd great grandparents were Patrick Ryan and Margaret Aherne from Tipperary.  We found a copy of their marriage certificate online for Feb 1872. It list the address for Patrick as Carherne and for Margaret Glenough. The priest is booted as W.Cannon Wall. Father of Patrick is listed as Patrick Ryan, both farmers. Margaret's parents are listed as John Aherne and Margaret Heffernan, farmers. The witnesses are Margaret Keeffe and John ONeill. The parish is listed as Kilpatrick.

Patrick (son) supposedly had at least 2 brothers. The story we recently discovered is that Patrick and his brothers were part of the resistance. Patrick wrote poetry to incite the masses. Patrick and his brothers had to leave Ireland quickly. Patrick came to Brooklyn, New York. One brother went to Chicago and one went to Australia.

Patrick and Margaret had several children.
Julia Agnes Ryan Oct 1885 address is listed as Carrow Upper in Kilpatrick Parish. Witnesses to baptism were Mary Dwyer and Rody Aherne.
Bridget Josephine Ryan born Jan 1888. We always knew her as Della, just discovered her legal name in Ireland was Bridget.
John Ryan born May 1876 baptized Aug 1876 Kilpatrick Parish
Mary Ryan born Aug 1883 baptized Sept 1883 Kilpatrick parish
Margaret Ryan born Oct 1877 baptized Oct 1877 Kilpatrick parish
James Ryan born Ireland
Ella Ryan born in Us
Also have found a record of a Cornelious Ryan born to them June1879 Kilpatrick Parish but we find no other trace of him. He doesn't show up on any records in the US with the rest of the family.

Patrick Ryan and Margaret Aherne arrived in Brooklyn New York in 1890. The sponsor on his Naturalization Paperwork is a Timothy Ryan.

Any help would be greatly appreciated.

I have a Rody Ahern and a Mary Dwyer listed on my great aunt's baptism records from this area.
We have documents that spell name: Ahearn, Ahern, and Aherne

Rody Ahern and Mary Dwyer were the sponsors of Julia Agnes Ryan's baptism in 1885.

Parents were Patrick Ryan and Margaret Aherne married Feb 1872. Patrick listed as from Caherne and Margaret from Glenough.
They had several children: John, James, Mary, Margaret, Bridget.
They came to Brooklyn, New York in 1890.
Patrick had 2 brothers we do not know the name of; one went to Australia and one went to Chicago.
Margaret Aherne's parents were John Aherne and Margaret Heffernan.
Any connections?
