Looking for Information on Daniel Shea/Honora Leary from Sneem Parish and Rossmore Island

Hi BK1962,

I have found no more than you already have. Earlier records if they exist would be in Church records in the area and accessable only on site with Church permission. 

Rossmor Island is in a huge (by local standards) Civil Parish. I'll in clude two pointers that you may find intweresting to research.

Kilcrohan Civil Parish see: http://sites.rootsweb.com/~irlker/kilcrohane.html  ;

and 

Map of Rossmore Island, see: https://www.logainm.ie/en/23166?s=Rossmore+Island

Hi Jim,

Thank you for your help.

I know they were in the Sneem parish because that is where I found all the baptismal records.

Those records list the place of residence as Rossmore.  So I am assuming it is Rossmore Island.

The civil birth records are from the Kenmore district and also list the place of birth as Rossmore.

Just seems to me that Rossmore Island is pretty far from Sneem.  Unless there is another Rossmore. 

Hi again. There are numerous Rossmores. At least 5 in Kerry and many more across the country. Her is an interestins site for looking for Townlansd in Ireland. I use it all the time.

Here are Rossmore s : https://www.logainm.ie/en/s?txt=Rossmore&str=on ;
