Cronins from Kerry

I have a lot of information on Fr James J Cronin in the USA. He was born here and went back to Ireland as a child to attend school in Tralee, then All Hallows in Dublin, then back to NY. As a priest he did a lot of traveling back and forth to/from Ireland. I would like to know if the people mentioned in the ship manafests and USA Census' are family and where in Ireland they came from. I am still looking for John Cronin, born 1849 in Ireland. Son of James and Ellen Cronin. Rev James J Cronin baptized his Grandson, John Edmund Cronin, my Grandfather in 1896 in Kings Park NY. The sponsors were John Cronin and Catherine Cronin. I can't get a connection to any of these people as to whether they might be immediate or extended Cronin family members. I thought I would see if there any history for James J Cronin in Kerry or Dublin.
