    Hello again!

    The Kilmore/Aughrim records  http://registers.nli.ie/parishes/0539  start in 1816 probably too late for your Bridget. Roots Ireland did have an 1817 baptismal record in the parish but likely for another Bridget? Have you considered autosomal DNA testing?

  • Your Bridget cannot be the one. My 3x grt grandfather was born in 1816, so I am estimating his mother, Catherine's, birthdate. The information I have for her is correct, as I took it off of his death certificate. I do not know if Laurence is the oldest child, though, so the hunt goes on! I know that William Ryan, her husband lived in the Nenaugh region.

    Thank you so much for checking on this; I am so stumped!   Beth
