You may want to search www.irishgenealogy.ie There is a September 1815 baptismal record for a Maurice Drinan. There are other baptisms in earlier years. Looks like he was 12 when he was convicted.

Thanks Roger. Yes he was only a boy. He must of worked hard as he recieved his Ticket of Leave early & had the support of some very high profile men to achieve his Conditional Pardon.

Thanks again
