Looking for birthplace of Cornelius Ryan c. 1820's. Parents are either Thomas Ryan/Ellen Kennedy or Dennis Ryan/Elizabeth Cullen. I favor Thomas and Ellen because of names of Corneilius' children follow the traditional naming scheme.
I found a Thomas Ryan with multiple Kennedys in Griffiths Valuation in Knigh . Cornelius made it to the USA sometime in 1850's.
I also like Knigh as a possibility because a sister of Cornelius married a Gleeson from Monsea Catholic Parish. However, these records start in 1834 which is a little late if Cornleilus was born in the 1820's.
So, grasping at straws!
Thank you-
Maureen
