I am seeking information on my GGGGG parents Dennis and Mary Egan and Thomas and Mary Murphy

Dennis’s son Thomas Egan (bc1783) married Thomas’s daughter Bridget Murphy (b c1793) on 22nd June 1815 in the Church of John the Evangelist, Ballysallagh. Co Kilkenny. Thomas and Bridget had eight children some born in Ballysallagh, Cellarstown and Johnswell. Thomas and Bridget and their children left for Australia 1854

I plan to visit the area in mid- September this year and would appreciate any information about the families and their descendants.

My 3rd great grandfather, William EAGAN, was born 1788 Urlingford Parish, County Kilkenney. He marrired Mary CROAK and they had 3 sons, all born Urlingford Parish: Patrick, James (my 2nd great grandfather, born April 1812) and WIlliam. Sponsors for James at Baptism are: John Dalton and Mary Egan. Patrick, James and William emigrated to USA in the 1830's, settling in Wappinger Falls, NY. William, their father, joined them, apparently after his wife Mary died.

Do you think there might be any connections?
