Feehan - Coughlin- Maher

TipperaryRoscrea (Tipperary)

Hello

Please see attached pic.

I believe the highlighted entry shows one John Maher born 1846 to Margaret Feehan and John Maher.

Margaret Feehan was the daughter of a John Feehan and Margaret Coughlin and had a number of siblings including one Catherine Feehan who is my GGGrandmother. Other sibling names include Johanna and Richard and there may have been others.

So my questions are:

1. This item on Ancestry says Parish register  - Killaloe Roscrea. 

I am not sure I know exactly where that would have been as it seems these names show up in multiple counties.

2. If any additional if avail please point me if possible.

 

Thanks

 

Ed

Hi,  on the Parish Book that you highlighted, where it says the names on the first line, the end squiggle, I read it as Grove Street.
