Hi
I am trying to determine if my Cronin family is from Derryvane, Inchigeelagh, Cork.
My 2G grandfather Jeremiah Cronin immigrated to the US in 1851. No oral family history provides any clues to his home in Ireland other than he was from Cork. His death record lists parents as Jeremiah Cronin and Honora Murphy. He also married in Coachford in 1849, but I believe Coachford was a feeding center during the Famine that drew people from all of Wst Cork. And I have found a 1821 birth record for a Jeremiah Cronin in Derryvane to a Jeremiah Cronin and Mary Murphy.
In my research I have found a Mary Cronin born about 1845 from Derryvane who's father was Jeremiah who married a James Droney in 1868.
Would that be the Mary Ellen Cronin you posted? If so, are you a direct descendent of your Mary Ellen and have you taken any DNA tests? Thank you, Bob Cronin
