I haven't seen a reply form maryderry about the source for marriage/baptisms, so I thought I'd post here that I have discovered tonight that searches can be done on findmypast. If you have a subscription or credits, you can view the image, or, you can view the image at http://registers.nli.ie once you know the parish.
I hope this is helpful to someone out there.

Thanks, Sandra.

There are so many pay sites out there that it's necessary to know which one has the information one actually wants.
Never trust anything you find online (especially submitted trees and transcriptions on Ancestry, MyHeritage, FindMyPast and other commercial web sites) unless it's an image of an original document - and even then be wary because errors can and do occur.

Hi Sandra - This is my Culhane family as well. I have Patricks death certificate which definitely links the families. The only sibling I cant find is what happened to Thomas Culhane

DNA has shown matches to John Culhane 1823-1895 who married Bridget Gahan who had 9 children in New York and Ohio and Michael Culhane 1828-1862 who married Jane Harvey and whose descendants were known as Culhans and Calhans. Their 4 sons were born in Ohio. Their parents died young

Speculatively their could have been siblings to James or cousins.

Looking at the Irish newspapers on Findmypast the 1800s were very violent times for the Culhanes. They were on the receiving end of it as well as giving it. Murders, theft, deception, stealing. Thats not to say our Culhanes were part of that mix....

If Catherine Culhane nee Murphy was living by herself in a 4th class dwelling in 1901 its very odd her children didnt pay for her to emigrate. If she was living in Ballynacarriga, Limerick, Ireland and died in the workhouse in Rathkeale did she have family in Ballynacarriga?
