(now Co. Laois) Ireland May 1795. they have 8 children named Eliz. Bridget (my follow up line) Michael, Martin, Catherine, Edmund, and 2 Thomas'es. Bridget married William WALSHE at Ballinakill. abt. 1820 1st child Mary bn 1821. Now I know that William had a brother called Walter.....so I wonder if there is any connection with your bible.
