In the Mucklee parish the years from 1806 to 1840 are missing would the churches in Kilkenny City be possible place to look for the baptisms Not in St Canices

Checked Conahy register no baptism for the above named

The nearest parishes would include those in Kilkenny city to the south, St. John's and St. Canice look the closest of these, then Castlecomer parish to the north, Conahy to the west. Mucklee  is also close to Co. Carlow.  You can check layout of RC parishes here on the John Grenham / IrishTimes website

The RC parish of Mucklee goes back further than the available records, there are baptisms noted 'In very damaged condition' for the parish between 1801 and 1806, so unless the family moved to the area it's seems likely that any records of these children's baptisms no longer exist.
