Looking for McCabes

Cavan

Lookinf for the McCabes from the Parish of Bailieborough in or around the 1820s. My GGGrandfather, Patrick, came from somewhere in the area in 1847 to Ontario, Canada. There he joined his Uncle Felix. Felix was married to a Mary/Margaret Smythe/Smith in Ireland before he immigrated to Canada with some of his children, one of which was Edward b. circa 1810 in Ireland.

Using the Tithe Applotment records adn the Irish naming conventin, I have found there to ba a Partick and Felix in the Bailieborough Parish in the Townlands of Drumoosclin and Greaghduff for the period in question.

Now I need to find info on them to determine if the Patrick had a son Patrick born/christened in or about 1817. The same would apply to Felix and his son Edward.

Tried most means to records like the LDS church, Ancestry and searching the Internet to no avail.

Was wondering if someone here may be able to help me.

Greatest appreciation and thanks in advance.

To update my original post of 2013: Felix was not the Uncle of Patrick, he was his father (confirmed through marriage documents recently found) thus making Edward his brother. The other children in the family were:Margaret b.ca 1812, Charles b. ca 1822, Eleanor b. ca 1823 and Ann b. ca 1826. There may be others but these are those that have been confirmed by documentation.

Felix was born ca 1778/79.

Any help in finding this family would be greatly appreciated.
