Catherine Sullivan was baptised in Abbeyfeale Parish Church in 1846. Could you please search an actual date of her baptism.
Her father, John Sullivan, was married once previously, before his marriage to Mary Collins, the mother of Catherine - probably in the late 1780's or early 1790's, as first child from this marriage Elizabeth, was baptised approx 1808 and married to Daniel Griffin 9/10/1836 in Kilcolman and Coolcappagh parish. John had a dispensation from Pope Leo 12th in 1st and 2nd degree of Affinity to allow his 2nd marriage to Mary Collins on 16/5/1827 at St Senans, Shanagolden
Could you please help find the name of John's first wife and the possible relationship to him before his 2nd marriage to Mary Collins
Is Thomastown a district near Abbeyfeale, as a John Sullivan died there in 1864. He was 84 yo thus born circa 1780
Thanking You

I went through the parish list by clicking the magnifying glass to the right of the entry and after 120 tries found that the parish you want is ABBEYFEALE R C.
