A pleasant surprise to find someone who has done their homework. I research the Irish Family History Foundation's database. It contains 12,000,000 surviving rcds for abt 65% of Irish counties. Rcds are increasingly sparse B4 1840, rare B4 1800. Note 1 - Without a KNOWN parish, the chance of an ancestor's rcds NOT being in this database is AT LEAST 35%. Note 2 - Only 1/2 of Co. Cork's rcds are in this database. Note 3 - The RC church kept control over most parish rcds from Tipperary (north). These are ONLY available thru the Tipperary Family History Research center at a substantial fee (regardless of outcome). For ALL of the named children with a father forenamed John in Galbally & Aherlow parish, I found B rcds CLOSE to the dates you indicated, but none exactly matching them. In fact, there appears to have been three Noonan families headed by a John in this parish during overlapping eras. For Johanna Cronin M 1841 +/- 1 yr in Co. Limerick, I found 1 rcd in Galbally & Aherlow Parish in 1840. For John Noonan M ditto, I found ditto. This and the rcd for Johanna are HIGHLY likely to be for your ancestors. A view of the detailed rcd SHOULD show that the marriage was to each other. If so, the rcd is validated. If validated, the view MAY also show their parents' names. This info may help you choose the correct B rcds for John and Johanna. For Marg(aret) Noonan B 1807 in Galbally & Aherlow with the father's forename unknown, the earliest rcd I found was in 1810. For Marg(aret) Noonan M 1830 in Galbally & Aherlow, I found 1 rcd. For W(illiam) Ryan M ditto, I found ditto. This and Margaret's rcd are likely for your ancestors. John's father's name wasn't likely David. Google the Foundation's name to lead you to this database. Register, opt to be notified as rcds are added and browse. Pls post your search results to my genforum msg. Hope this helps. Good luck. Notify Administrator about this message?
