I'm tryng to learn more abou the family of James Clarke and what parish the family is from.
James is the son of Patrick Clarke - we don't know his mothers name. Patrick was born in Ireland in 1798, approx, this is based on the 1880 US census where he is listed as 82. Patrick had 7 childre - James being the oldest. The other children were Anthonly Clarke, who married Sarah Glynn - Annie Clarke who married a McGuinn - Mary Clarke who marked a Camody - Ellen Clark, and Mary Clarke.
James was born May 12, 1835 in Dublin. He married Honorah Glynn on April 22, 1860 in Niles Michigan. Honorah was born in 1839 in County Cork. They had 11 children all born in Michigan, United States. James died on April 11, 1910.
James and Honorah 6th child was Martin Henry Clarke who Married Mary Handran (Daughter of Patrick Handran and Mary Powers). Thier first child was Mary Eleanor Clarke, who is my Grandmother.
I will be in Dublin the 24th and 25th of July, if Icould find out what parish this branch of family belonged to I owuld love to visit.
Thank you for your help.

Hi Theresa,
The only listing of a James Clarke father Patrick born Dublin on the rootsireland site is 1843.
There is also a Patrick Clarke born in Dublin in 1797 and some others in early 1800 but 1797 looks close.
rootsireland.ie is pay-per-view with each record costing about $5. Depending on how keen you are you might want to check both records to see if they were from the same parish.
Hope this helps
Best regards
