Looking for Clancy or Glancy in County Sligo

I am looking for any information on the family of Roderick (Roger) Clancy (Glancy) born around 1793 in County Sligo, married to Bridget Scanlon. They were Roman Catholic. Left Ireland for Ontario, Canada around 1850 to 1854 with sons Patrick, (born 1836) Michael (born 1841) and Rodger (1846). May have also had daughters Catherine (1835) and Bridget. I have found some Roger Clancy and Bridget Scanlons in Killenummery Killery but not sure if this is the correct couple. He died November 1, 1886, Brant, Bruce County, Ontario, Canada.

Welcome to Ireland Reaching Out!

The RC baptismal records for Killanummery/Killery parish start in May 1828 https://registers.nli.ie/parishes/0171   The subscription site Roots Ireland does not have any baptismal records for a Roger Clancy/Bridget Scanlan couple but there are nine records for a John Clancy/Bridget Scanlan couple: Ellen 1833 Mary 1836 John 1837 Bridget 1839 Patrick 1841 John 1843 Michael 1846 Luke 1848 Catherine 1852

I also went on Find My Past and found an 1836 baptismal record for a Catherine Clancy with parents Roger Clancy and Bridget Scanlan. See below.

So is it possible that John and Roger were the same person??
