Devereux - County Tipperary

Tipperary

Looking for information on the children of John Devereux & Mary (nee Heffernan) Devereux. I realize this may be a long shot but hopefully someone can help.

I can confirm they had at least 4 children, one of them (MichaeI), I have alot of information on so it is the other 3 I need help with. Here's what I know.

Jeane Devereux - Born December 5, 1808 - sponsors were Pat Lonergan & Margaret Heffernan

Brigid Devereux - Born May 5, 1811 - sponsors were Judith Luby & unknown male sponsor

John Devereux - Born August 19, 1813 - sponsors were Mortagh (sp?) Heffernan and Joanna Hayes

All were from Cashel Parish.

MaryTV - Neither of those Bridget's are mine. Bridget wasn't born until 1853 and she died in 1913 so unfortunately, the dates don't line up. The marriage for Michael Devereux and Ellen Hickey are mine, those are my great great grandparents. I know where Michael is buried, but not Ellen.

Cyndi,

Curious, the Brigid I identified wasn't possibly your great great grandfather's sister?? I thought that was who you were researching??
