Jams Sherlock Ireland to Philadelphia

Recently I found a ship passanger list that may contain my ggrandfathers immigration information. I found a James Sherlock, age 21,coming from Enninstymon, Ireland. He arrived in Philadelphia on 7/10/1895. I'm really trying to find out if anyone else had Sherlocks that may have come to Philadelphia about the same time who had a brother James. I think that he had another relative that came to Philadelphia because there is a Patrick and Anna Sherlock who were sponsors for his daughter's christening in 1904.

Per death information, one of his sons indicate that James' fathers name was William but they had no additional information.

Recap: James Sherlock, born abt. 5/3/1870 (have seen a few different birth years documented).
His father: William
Possibly came from: Eninnstymon, Ireland
Arrived in Philadelphia: 7/10/1895
Married Bridget Mary Boland 9/1895 in Philadelphia
Lived in Philadelphia until about 1910 then moved to Camden, NJ. Also, in all of the census records, he always indicated that he was from the Irish Free State or Northern Ireland. Would Eninnstymon be included in that?

Children: James, Patrick, Mary V., Andrew, Anna Theresa (she had Sherlock sponsors), John Patrick, all born in Philadelphia. Last birth that I have found in Philadelphia was about 1907.

Helen was born in Camden, NJ. in 1914.
