Hi, Are you looking for ancestry of Patrick who married Mary Keefe? He would have been born c1841, not 1869.

Or are you looking for a child of Patrick and Mary Keefe who was born c1869?

Thanks for clarifying.

Thanks Patricia.

I'm looking for Patrick's parents and his parent's domicile. I agree that the 1871 census shows that Patrick was born in 1841 but other data (Duagh record) shows he may have been born a bit earlier.

Patrick and Mary's son, Maurice, is my grandfather who immigrated from England to the US.

The only other data that I can find about Patrick (that is not at all convincing), is a record that displays a Patrick Brown born at Duagh to Nicholas Brown and Ellen Keene. See attached baptismal record.

Perhaps a more likely record is one that shows Patrick at Knocknagashel (a bit closer to Brosna) (see census extract attached).

I'm thinking that we need a relative or acquaintance from the Brosna/Knocknagashel area (storyteller?) since the historical records seem to have been lost.
