Hi
I am sorry about leaving the dates out!! Many appologies, I made that entry very late last night, in a hurry, and overlooked the fact that I had not put in birth dates!
The date of birth that I have for Isabella Heany is 1843, which is projected from her Australian death certificate. Currently the main information that I have on Isabella's origins is that she came to Australia, when she was about 15 or 16, with two other young girlfriends, with whom she had grown up!
Based on the 1901 and 1911 censi, the projected birth dates that I have for Daniel and Patrick Heaney of Ballyscullion are Daniel 1839, and Patrick 1841.
The death certificate for Isabella Heaney in Australia, gives her parents as Patrick Heaney and Catherine McMahon. I guess that I would project a date of birth for Isabella"s parents as approximately 1805 to 1815, but possibly earlier.
The only reference that i have to Richard and Mary Scullion is the census entry.
Thanks for the marriage reference.
Is that the main catholic church for Ballyscullion? I shall be in Dublin in late August and intend to visit the National library and do some searching in the parish registers on film there.
Any assistance or direction would be appreciated.
Regards
Ian
