Edward:
Edward's birth date, 27 July 1852, was provided in his 1931 death notice. In the St. Attracta Baptismal Register, there are no entries for July or August, 1852. At this time, no additional proof of birthday or baptismal date is available.
Bartholomew:
He was baptized on May 1, 1854. From the entry in St. Attracta's register you can see his parents were living in the Townland of Lislea. On the opposite page it says the sponsors were Michael McIntyre [I believe this Michael is most likely my direct ancestor and one reason why I think Patrick and Michael might have been brothers] and Bridget D.
Mary:
Dominick:
He was listed as 2 years old on the April, 1863 Passenger List to the United States. His birthday would most likely be in 1860. Unfortunately, the register I have access to from St. Attracta's is missing most of the entries from 1860-1863. No validation of Dominick's baptism is currently available.
Catherine (Kate):
As stated above under Dominick, the register from St. Attracta's Church I have access to is missing most of the entries from 1860-1863. However, Dolly Purcell received a letter from the County Sligo Heritage and Genealogy Society in 1990 which listed Catherine's baptism as May 4, 1861.
