Kilcrea,

There  is an 1852 Griffith's Valuation record for a Patrick Connell in the town land of Farranes, Moviddy, Cork; however, the relation to Ellen is unknown. 

Regards,

Carolyn

thank you Carolyn. Patrick may have been a brother to our Ellen who was born approx. 1803. If that were the case the parents were Patrick Connel OO Margaret Sweeny. When Micahael Callaghan (from Farnanes) married Ellen Connel 1834  their 1st witness was a Curly Sweeny all from Kilmurry. Will have to check it all out first - very interesting.

 Thank you Patrick

Patrick,

On the free site irishgenealogy.ie, the 1803 Ellen Connell's parents are Daniel Connell & Ellen Neal. YOUR Ellen Connell was baptized December 1810 to parents Patt Connell & Margt Sweeny, the sponsors were Dennis Murphy & Ellen Sweeny.

There is also a baptism record for an unknown (because original record is hard to read) Connell in Dec 1810 to the same parents, and the sponsors were William Connoll & Margaret Manning.

Regards,

Carolyn

other siblings from Daniel Callaghan were: John 1836- / Michael 1841- / Hanora 1843 (Finnegan) / Johanna (Buckley 1845-
