Woods family connection with Oswego, New York and Duprane[?] Tipperary

Edward Woods died in 1901 in Oswego, New York. His obit says that he is from Tipperary. I believe that 5 Woods siblings lived in Oswego. In the 1860 US Census for Ward 2 of the City of Oswego, the census taker, G. W. Harman, included extra info in the birthplace column. Normally there would only be country for foreign borns.

For Edward and many others in that census, their birthplace looks like some variation of Duprane or Dupraire or Dupain Ireland. In 2 instances, Duperane or Duprain is preceded by “Co” (for County?). I have listed below everyone in G. W. Harman’s district who was born in Duprane, etc. I have attached a sample page from the census.

*Patrick Woods       31        Co Duprain or Duprane Ireland

Mary         “             29                   "

Ann           “               9                  “

*Edward Woods      26         Duprain Ireland

*Probable siblings – obit for Edward Woods indicates that he is from County Tipperary, Ireland

 

Any ideas where these folks were born? Any knowledge of the Woods family?
