Because your name is so unusual, I checked the Irish Times Genealogy section, which will show distribution of Irish names for the time period 1846-1864.In all of Ireland then, there were only 84 Finucane families.Mostly in Co. Clare and Co. Kerry.
Do you have her death cert.It should list her parents' names.As she was born after 1864, when civil registration went into effect, her birth would be registered in the GRO in Dublin.With parents' names and approx. year of birth, you could write first for a birth cert. in Clare, then Kerry, etc.It's a shot.
