I have to admit I'm leaning in that direction, I was just hoping something more definitive might come up.  That might be asking a bit much though given how much of Ireland's records are missing.  I have noticed there's another John Comerford in the area, he and a Bridget Byrne have a child baptised in Castlecomer in 1876.

I've looked at the sponsors of the Regan kids to see if there's any clues there, but no Comerfords unfortunately.  I note an Ellen Moore was second sponsor for my great-grandmother.  A relative of Johanna's perhaps?  The three other kids I've found on the NLI all seem to have members of the Brennan family as their sponsors.  John by Edward & Kate Brennan, James by Thomas & Mary Brennan, and Jane by Patrick and Ellen Brennan.  A lot of Brennans.  Could be just friends of the family, though I'm wondering if there's a connection there too.  If a Comerford married a Brennan, that person could maybe help tie Anne and John together, or otherwise?
