My Comiskeys (aka Comerford! surprising but it is an alternate name, changed during the Troubles back to the more Irish Comiskey, originall O'Comiscaigh I believe--both names existed simultaneously in my family, so confusing) were also from Cavan, from Drumbee, which is very near to Crosserlough. I think there must be a connection there somewhere, so keep me in mind if you ever get more info.

Sadly, I don't know the forename of my Comiskey, but I hope someone will recognize this family by the children:

Descendants of Unknown Comerford (Comiskey)
                     
       1        Unknown Comerford (Comiskey)       
..              +Catherine McGivney       1840 -
.........       2        Margaret Comerford (Comiskey)       1865 - 1940 (I know that she at least was b. Drumbee)
.............              +John Boylan       1859 - 1908
.........       2        Catherine Comerford (Comiskey)       1865 - 1932
.............              +Thomas Scadden       
.........       2        Mary Comerford (Comiskey)       1865 - 1931
.............              +Patrick Donnelly       
.........       2        Ellen Comerford (Comiskey)       
.............              +Unknown Casey       
.........       2        Rose Comerford (Comiskey)       1850 -
.............              +Unknown Thompson       
.........       2        Nicholas Comerford (Comiskey)       
.............              +Mary Unknown       
.........       2        Bridget Comerford (Comiskey)       1856 - 1888
.............              +Barney Coyle       

I think that all but two of the children ended up in the USA, initially around Waterbury Connecticut. One ended up in Virginia City Nevada.
