I am searching for the parish of my great-grandfather, Denis Cullen, born 1811 in Wexford County. His father was Edward Cullen and his mother was Ann Reid. Denis emigrated to Frampton, Quebec, Canada at some point and married Mary Deveraux. The Canadian marriage record spelled Denis' name as "Dyoniseus".
Also looking for the parish of Mary Deveraux's father, Patrick Deveraux, born in Wexford County in 1779.
Thanks for any assistance in this search.

I operate the website www.framptonirish.com and I have researched the Frampton, Quebec Irish community for over ten years. When I visited Ireland in 2010, I came across three baptism records for children of Edward Cullen and Ann Reed. They were in the register of the Catholic parish of Blackwater in County Wexford. They were: Monetunn (handwriting was illegible) on 23 Aug 1818, Elizabeth on 17 Mar 1823, and James on 22 Oct 1823. A record for Denis Cullen was not found. I have also traced his wife Mary Devereux. She was the daughter of Patrick Devereux and Mary Culleton. Patrick Devereux was from the Townland of Kilcotty in the Catholic parish of Olygate and Mary Culleton was also from Olygate.
