Thank you very much for your reply. No, I can't see any others either. I have William's birth certificate. I know the year of Francis' and of John's birth from their army records. They have three sisters, Elizabeth, Susan and Charlotte born in the 1850s; the first two were born in Fermanagh, but I don't know Charlotte's place of birth. I should have thought to mention that they are Church of England / Ireland. I know it is a very unusual surname for Galway. Their parents married in Clogher, Co. Tyrone, and are buried in Athenry.
