Hello. I wonder if anybody has any information on the Tobin family of Cloghleafin. I think there are none of the family left in the area now although they were in the locality for hundreds of years. Some emigrated as part of the Robinson Emigration of the 1820's and some also went to the States and Australia. My grandmother Annie Tobin was born in the Cloghleafin house in the 1880's.

Records for the corresponding Roman Catholic Parish of Newmarket begin in 1822.
Have you checked any of the sites below for records for the Tobin family?
This is also a very helpful site; http://churchrecords.irishgenealogy.ie/churchrecords/search.jsp?namefm=&namel=&location=Ballydoughy&dd=&mm=&yy=&submit=Search
Tithe Applotment Books 1823-1837 and Griffith's Valuation 1847-1864 give the name of the head of householsd only, but this information can also be very useful:
