Dear Betsy, A Cornelius Harrington, Cork !!! There was a Mary Conroy, Baptised in Aug. 1843 in a townland called Clogheen in the Allihies Parish, Beara. Her parents were Philip Conroy & Honora Sullivan. This may be a long shot. It was all Baptismal dates rather than birth dates in those times, at least here in Beara. But, maybe people in Beara were a good deal more holy than people outside of here !! In fact, most people in the very early years, often when they went to countries overseas, didn't have a clue as to when exactly they were born. Most of those from all counties couldn't read or write as a result of the Penal Laws, etc. ---- Riobard.
