Forgive me for responding to the list but unfortunately my reply to Cara came back to me as undeliverable and I certainly want her to get my reply.

I was in doubt if there were any Canary's in Ireland let alone Cork. I see from my trusty map that Waterford borders Cork so now I wonder if I should expand my search to Waterford. It could be my Mary Canary came from Waterford. All list members, If anyone happens upon a Mary Canary that married a Laurence McCarty or McCarthy sometime in the 1829-1843 range, then I would do handsprings! This couple is supposed to have had a child in Cork in 1843 but the Mallow Centre could not find me a match.
