Hi
I'm also looking for information on the CRONIN family
Born Nov 17 1756 in County Clare married Julia (unknown surname) Sep 22 1785
They had a daugter names Julia but information I have shows two daughters with the same name Julia (married SN Roach or Roche) and Julia (married SN Sughrue) I am not certain if that is correct.
Hope someone can assist
