Looking for information on John William Clarke and his family

CavanEnniskeen (Cavan)

My name is Margaret McLennan and I amd looking for any information on my GG Grandfather John William Clarke born about 1830. His father's name was William (Born around 1800?) and Mother's name is Mary Wallace onhis marriagecertificate or Musgrave on his deathcetificate

I beleive John William was born in Enniskeen not Enniskillen as was on his immigration records to Australia.

John William died in Wollongong NSW Australia in 1882

Any information would be greatly appreciated.

Thankyou

Welcome to Ireland Reaching Out!

I searched Roots Ireland from 1825-1835 for a baptismal record I checked in all counties. There was an 1835 record (below). The mother's name was not shown. They were C of I and I noticed the father was a publican. Possible lead?
