Are there births or marriages for sponsors?  Maybe they will have details to see if they are related.
Give a man a record and you feed him for a day.
Teach a man to research, and you feed him for a lifetime.

Hi Hallmark, no the sponsors do not have their birth or any other information, just their names.
Thanks,
biddy

Thank you Heywood, for your reply. I'm not sure how to check for the sponsors. Also Honora Drohan was David Power's sponsor.

What I meant was, as you have all the children’s details, their sponsors (Godparents) may be relatives who might expand your knowledge of the Drohan family.
If you gather other Drohan names, you could cross check those in the registers for the possibility of further clues.

I have tried to check their names and have found a possible connection with Honora Drohan but no Johanna Drohan as her sibling. Might have been a cousin.
