I see that there is an international reunion planned for Brosnan / Brosnahan at Castleisland, Tralee, East KERRY.
While transcribing the Carrigaholt, southwest Co.Clare Catholic Baptism & Marriage Registers of 1852-1878, I came across two isolated 'visitors' to the area, written as Bresnehan, Brosnan & Brosnahan.
If anyone is interested in connecting to these two, could you please email me at MURRAY@GINNANE.CO.NZ especially with an accurate version of the Sponsor's name which is something like "Ellen Shalloe" ? Also what became of them, where married, where born, where buried, etc. just to help complete my transcription?
======
OCTOBER 2nd 1869 Baptised baby: ELLEN BROSNAN from DOONAHA , later at Tullaroe?
Parents: as Tim Brosnan , TIMOTHY BROSNAN & BRIDGET CAHILL , as Bid Cahill
Sponsor: ELLEN SHALLOE ?? Priest: Fr M M
[ Parents’ {Tim & Bridy} marriage cannot be found near Carrigaholt, Co.Clare. ]
DEC 24th 1871 Baptised baby: MARGARET BROSNAHAN from TULLAROE ?, were at Doonaha
Parents: as Tim Bresnahan , Tady, Thady, Thadeus, TIM BROSNAHAN or TIMOTHY BROSNAHAN & BRIDGET CAHILL
Sponsor: JOHANNA KELLY Priest: Fr D Smyth
Brosnan is equivalent to Brosnahan.
A visiting priest, Fr L. Brosnahan , perhaps Laurence / Lawrence / Larry , perhaps from Brosna Road, CastleIsland, Tralee, East Kerry, performed one Baptism in the Carrigaholt, Co.Clare Register, on New Year’s Day, Jan 1st 1878.
