Ralph & Jan,
It appears I been given some incorrect info in regards to Honora O'Brien. I managed to find a Baptism record and marriage record for John (Jr) Fitzgibbon.
Extract from the Baptism Register for the parish of St. Mainchin, Limerick
Name: John Fitzgibbon
Date of Baptism: 16 Jan 1808
Parents: John Fitzgibbon
: Hanora Byrum
Sponsors: John Fitzgerald
: Mary Byrum
Baptised by: Gerard Herbert P.P.
Maybe Mary Byrum is Hanora's sister?? You would think they would be related.
Extract from the MarriageRegister for the parish of St. John, Limerick
Persons Married: John Fitzgibbon
: Ellen O'Callaghan
Date of Marriage: 27 Jan 1838
Witnesses: Thomas Fitzgibbon
: Mary Fleming
It's confusing with Hanora/Honora as the family has spelt her name differently over the years. I have been lead to believe that her surname was Bryum (a variation of O'Brien), when it looks like it was Byrum.
