LimerickAbbeyfeale (Limerick)

Would like to find any information on James E. Lenihan 1832-1907, especially on his parents.

He was married to Margaret Brown Lenihan 1832-1912

Welcome to Ireland Reaching Out!

I checked on Roots Ireland from 1827-1837 in Limerick for a James Lenihan and there were four possible records, however, none were in Abbeyfeale RC parish. Any other clues? Did the marriage occur in Ireland?

Yes, 17 Oct 1852; if it helps, he was born in Ballingarry, Limerick, Ireland

There are quite a few parishes listed for Limerick, I'm not completely sure if this one is correct, could you possibly help me out with this.

The marriage was in the RC church of Ballingary. None of the four baptismal records around 1832 occurred in Ballingarry. This record was in the parish of Feenagh just to the southwest of Ballingarry.
