Cornelius Ryan

TipperaryKnigh (Tipperary)

Looking for birthplace of Cornelius Ryan c. 1820's.  Parents are either Thomas Ryan/Ellen Kennedy or Dennis Ryan/Elizabeth Cullen. I favor Thomas and Ellen because of names of Corneilius' children follow the traditional naming scheme. 

I found a Thomas Ryan with multiple Kennedys in Griffiths Valuation in Knigh . Cornelius made it to the USA sometime in 1850's.

I also like Knigh as a possibility because a sister of Cornelius married a Gleeson from Monsea Catholic Parish.  However, these records start in 1834 which is a little late if Cornleilus was born in the 1820's.

So, grasping at straws!

Thank you-

Maureen
