Hello, I’m looking to find any information on the following family.Yet I have limited information to provide in the first place. Mainly names, some possible dates and I believe the area would be Munster or Kerry. I happened upon this website but not sure if this is correct to post the names but figure I’ll give it a go? Firstly, John J. Lane co Kerry born 1869 to John and Bridget. Married to Margret Ahearn . Margret would have been born around 1871 to Margaret and Patrick. I believe John and Margaret immigrated separately around 1890 ending up marrying in Danvers Massachusetts.I would also like to find information about James Ryan born in 1825 and Hannah Doran born 1838. Both were born In Ireland, though I’m unsure when they arrived in the U.S. They ended up in Danbury Connecticut. Any information would be so very appreciated. Thank you for reading.

Welcome to Ireland Reaching Out!
I looked for civil birth records in 1869 for a John Lane in Co. Kerry and there were two available but the parents names do not match John and Bridget. It is possible that his real year of birth was earlier or later than 1869. Do you have Bridget's maiden name from a death record or other source?
Regarding, James Ryan and Hannah Doran, it would be very difficult to see if a baptismal record is available (many churches do not have records back to 1825 or 1838) without having their parents names.
