    3. NOTE: Clerihan parish contains an EXTRAORDINARY number of transient people and unique entries. I wuld't be surprised to find some of these people later in other parts of Tipp, or Limerick, or Clare, or anywhere else in Ireland for that matter. 1859 James Manning & Anne Cunningham Eugene/Owen Sullivan & Ellen Hayes Patrick Moore & Catherine Lahy William Toomey & Honora Hackett James Keating & Ellen Cleary Thomas Sullivan & Margaret Commons/Cummins James Scott & Margaret Lonergan There is a gap here between between February, 1859 and November, 1859 that may or may not have had marriages. The last entry below in the November entry; however, there is a similar pattern here in 1860, so perhaps nothing is really missing. There is a change of priests in this period. Patrick Power & Mary Ryan 1860 The new handwriting gets progressively worse, so the names could be iffy. John Woodlock of Drangan & Alice Lonergan of Rathdrum Patrick Fennessy? & Mary Shea of Coleman [The above couple has a child - maybe - in 1860, but no name is given. It may have been the marriage entry entered in the wrong place; he is from "Dunhill"/Donohill?] James Hackett & Kate Heffernan Richard Conroy (or Carroll) of Dolla & Mary Tobin of Lafally - [There are no children in this parish for this couple to verify his name] Daniel Fleming & Judy Dwyer of Clerihan, Edmond Bates & Honora Ryan, both of Clerihan James Ryan & Mary Ryan both of Coleman John Cahill & Nancy Scanlan "This is her third husband in less than no time." Tom Butler & Biddy Keefe of Lafally: disp. 3° & 3° …. [This couple was married in November, but I suspect it was a remarriage after the dispensation, as their first child is born the following January] 1861 Thomas Hill Lucas, 6th Regt., & Susan Hamerton of Orchardstown Richard Prendergast & Margaret Walsh of Chancellorstown Denis Hickey & Ally/Alice Waters, Ballyheameen/Ballyheen?/Ballyhimikin? William Looby/Luby & Susan Hogan alias Sadlier, Newchapel [Probably Susan's second marriage] Tom Maher & Judy Grady of Mocklerstown William Tobin & Biddy Bates of Ballyhimkeen/Ballyhimikin: Michael Hiffernan of Ballyduagh & Alice Larkin of Ballycurnane James Harty/Harding of Coleman & Ellen Rourke or Burke of Coleman - [I can't find a baptism to check her name] Michael Ryan & Ally/Alice?/Ellen? Rourke (or Bourke) of Coleman Tom Casey? & Judy Maxey Of Coleman - [No children to check names]
