I searched on the subscription site Roots Ireland and located a September 16th 1821 baptismal record for a William Norris with father John Norris and mother Anne Martin. The RC parish was Galbally and Aherlow. We need more information to confirm that this record is for your William. Do you have the names of any siblings?

Maggie,

This doesn't answer your question but when William and Catherine got married in 1845 in Kildorrery, Cork one of their witnesses was Cornelius Norris. Their 10 children were all born in Quitrent, Kildorrery, Cork. The oldest was William and second daughter was Ellen. One son was named Cornelius.

A Cornelius was married in 1844 in Kildorrery, Cork to Elizabeth Roche. One of the witnesses was Johanna Norris. Cornelius' son Patrick was born in Quitrent, Kildorrery.

Cornelius and William might have been brothers??

Regards- Mary
