I am looking for information on the family of Gerard & Mary (Conner) Fitzmaurice. Their children listed as baptised in Duagh were John (1820), Ulysses (1823), Margaret (1826), James (1836) and Morgan (1839). They appear to have emigrated to New York (Wyoming County) around 1840. I do not know the parents for Gerard or Mary.

Dear Wayne
Welcome to Ireland Reaching out and apologies for the delay in getting back to you.
As parish records for Duagh begin in 1819 for baptisms and 1832 for marriages, there will only be baptism and marriage records for the period after that. Have you tried searching for the marriage records of John and his siblings to see if parents' names are listed?
There is a Duagh Graveyard Committee you may be able to give you info on any Fitzmaurice graves:
