Jeanne,
I think this could be your William Couche
William Couche born 10 January 1845 in Brigown, Mitchelstown, Co. Cork, parents William Couche a shoemaker, mother Ellen, the family lived in Baldwin Street, Brigown. Denomination: Church of Ireland.
William Couche senior died on the 4th December 1849 at the age of 38 in Brigown, cause of death: fever, last address Kingston Road Brigown
The closest match I can find for Mary Anne McCarthy is: Mary Anne McCarthy baptised 2e August 1846 in Glanworth about 15 from Mitchelstown, father Edmond, mother Elizabeth Donovan. Denomination: Roman Catholic.
This might be the death of relation who remained living at the family address where your William was born: Ellen Constance Couche death 24 July 1869 Brigown, place of death Balwin Street, Brigown, under one year old at the time of her death

Thankyou Mallow
This information has been most helpful allowing me to help anothe family also with their Richard Couche (bn 1838) from Mitchelstownwho also was born in cork and located near or with William couche.( born 1845)
Ironically William Couche's first child was named edward browning couche and the same middle name is used in one of Richard couche children too so I passes on your info to her too which really helped which I will elain
I then found Richards details on the immigration records for Victoria and when checked by my contach found Richards wife Margaret Crone was accomanied by her parents an Elizabeth Browning and father a Timothy or Daniel. Crone
This explains the name Browning in both Richards and Williams Couche's childrens names but how does it exlain my Ellen Crone born about 1817 as the mother for my William Couche 1845 my gggrandfather
Do you think my Ellen Crone is also Elizabeth Browning both would have been born about the same time. Elizabeth Browning Crone ALSO returned to Mitchelstown when her husband died in Australia which may affect things
Elizabeth browning Crone and her husband I found on an anscetry rootsweb site was also related to Clutterbuck Crone named as a family of distinction in The Peerage pages.
Do you think my Ellen CRONE about 1817 my ggggrandmother was the mother of both Richard 1838 and William Couche 1845 ? How coudl I find out this information please as it is quite interesting the link?
Best wishes
Jeanne
