This looks like the same family but I'm a little confused and hope that some of you who are a lot more experienced than I am can help me figure this out.
Ellen Toole married Richard Manly in Rathmines, Dublin in 1871. Their children have the same family names as the Tooles in this original post. Ellens marriage certificate lists her father as Bartholomew Toole a carpenter. I also found a church record listing all the names in Latin. Richard is called Richardus, Ellen is called Elenora and her parents are listed as Bartholomew Toole and Maria Moran. Based on the death record she was born around 1847. I found a birth for Ellen Manly to Bartholomew Toole (carpenter) and Mary Moran in August 1846.
Where I'm confused is that I also find birth records for children of Bartholomew and Mary Moran in the 1860's and 1870's.
They can't possibly be the same people. However Tooles and Manlys are both sponsors or witnesses over a couple of generations. I think Ellen who married Richard Manly is a separate generation but where is the connection?
Any help is very much appreciated... thank you for reading this.
