Shea and Lynch families

Pamela:

I found a Michael Shea in Milltown RC in 1849 with John Shea and Julia Lynch as parents. This may be the record for one of the two missing children.

Thank you so much! I am only now seeing this. Was Aghacurreen once apart of Cork County?

Additional Information added to Post

Searching for information on John Shea and Julia Lynch families. I have found the records for John and Julia were married 10 Feb 1846 in Aghacurreen, Aghadoe parish, County Kerry and they had a child Bridget in Clasheen, Kilarney, County Kerry. This may be the family but so many people uses the same names I can't be positive. Her parents were Patrick and Julia Lynch.

Before immigrating to the US in about 1860, they had 2 more children possibly Martha in 1850 and Michael in 1849 in Milltown? I don't know why they were all over the place, was this typical? 

There was a family rumor that the children were illegitimate and when the situation got too difficult Julia traveled to the US with the children where she, I believe, joined two brothers Michael and Edward Lynch in Manchester, CT. There is also evidence that she had a sister, Bridget?, who married a Falvey and had a son Patrick.

After settling in Tolland County, Connecticut, US Julia and John had 3 more children. In the US I have not found them listed together and each child seems to have been born in a different neighboring town. 

This is one of my two brick walls and any help is appreciated!
