Bridget Donoghue & Daniel Murphy plus Bridgets extended family from 1800 Gortdromakiery

Bridget Donoghue was born abt 1856 and married Daniel Murphy born about 1850 in the RC Church Killarney 1 Feb 1874. Bridget was from Gortdromakiery and Daniel from Kilquane at the time of their marriage and they lived in Gortdromakiery after their marriage.

There children were all baptised in the church above and were:
John 4 Nov 1874
Catherine 21 Aug 1876
Elizabeth 18 Apr 1878
Patrick 30 Jul 1880 (My great grandfather who went to New Zealand 19130
Emma 15 Nov 1882
Mary 15 Mar 1885
Daniel 27 Feb 1887
Michael 12 Feb 1889 & 23 May 1890
Humphrey 24 Apr 1892
James 15 Oct 1894 (came to NZ with Patrick and went onto Australia)
Jeremiah 20 Feb 1897
Timothy 19 Oct 1899

I believe the following to proberbly be Bridget’s family:

Parents – Jeremiah Donaghue & Catherine Fitzgerald who married 12 Feb 1852 in RC Church Killarney and her siblings were baptised in this church also.

Mary 23 Mar 1853
Bridget (Bgt) 12 Aug 1854 (married Daniel above)
Florence (Flo) 24 Jan 1856
James (Jas) 31 Jan 1858
Catherine (Cath) 02 Oct 1860
Michael (ML) 05 Oct 1862
Ellen 02 Mar 1865

From this I belive Bridget’s father Jeremiah’s parents to be: Cornelius (Corn) Donnoghue and Hannah (no marriage details.

Jeremiah’s siblings were all baptised in the RC Church in Killarney and are:

John 19 May 1806
Catherine 14 Jan 1808
Jeremiah (himself) 08 Dec 1812
Mary 06 Apr 1815
