Eddie:

In your other message, you had the name Margaret O'Rourke instead of Hannah. Which name is correct?

Do you have the civil marriage record which would show the name of the father of the O'Rourke woman?

  we had the name wrong Roger, It was only when we found records of the family in Tottenham England the  name was Hannah on the English Census, we dont have a marriage cert. we had been looking at a family with the same father (Timothy)and two children (Frank & Annie) in ireland in 1911 James was the missing link ( we knew he existed but had no evidence) my father mentioned Tottenham to me then and thats when i found the complete family there.

There is no townland called Aghina in Co. Cork. Possibly the name is Aghada a town and civil parish in Co. Cork.

I searched on the subscription site Roots Ireland for Co. Cork Hannah Rourke/O'Rourke baptismal records around 1881, There were two records neither in Aghada RC parish.

Hannah Rourke baptized June 28 1879 Conna RC parish father Denis Rourke mother Mary McGrath

Hannah Rourke baptized November 14 1880 Donoughmore RC parish father Daniel Rourke mother Margaret Looney

Search routines pick up O'Rourke records when you search for Rourke,

i managed to get her marriage cert and i have the name James O Rourke as Hannahs father   by this her birth year could be 1881 but on a mass card it says 1873.

No Hannah Rourke/O'Rourke baptismal records in Co. Cork with father James.
