Hi - I am looking for information on the parents, grandparents etc. of James O'Shea (or Shea) born 1836.  He married Margaret Meehan in Bruree in 1859.  I have no clue as to where he might be from.  He was a cooper and they went to live in Granagh I presume because that is where his son (my grandfather) lived.

Many thanks if anyone can help.

    The transcription of the 1859 church marriage record showed James was from Ballingarry. There is a Ballingarry townland and a civil parish in Co. Limerick.
