I fouund my great grandmother Catherine Fennell's baptism in Clonmel, together with her siblings all baptised between 1843 and 1856  Parents Michael Fennell and Catherine Ormond, Marriage of Michael and Catherine was in Tallow on 17 June 1840 and I found a baptism there for Catherine Ormond in 1811 and her sister Margaret in 1817, parents Thomas Ormond and Margaret Sullivan. Address Shean in Tallow. All these details were found on the Rootsireland website. Then while looking on Findmypast website I found death registrations for Thomas Ormond and Margaret Ormond as above and Catherine Fennell all in Dungarvan. Margaret aged 80 in 1874 vol 19/430 and Thomas 87 in 1873 vol 19/413. The death for Michael Fennell is in Clonmel and is the right age for his date of birth there in 1815. I see that  FMP also has a death registered in Kilrush for a Catherine Fennell in Oct-Dec 1883 aged 70 which is nearer the right age, I imagine the Ormond/Sullivan families must be related somewhere and am now concentrating on Thomas and Margaret to find out if they are mine and if they are the ones who died in Dungarvan
