Did you notice the sponsor for William was Catherine Wyer? Owen's sister, maybe. Do you know anything about Bridget Deegan? Her father's first name or mother's name. Deegan seems to be a common last name. I think the townland Boston as the priest wrote it is Bostoncommon, near Feighcullen. The priest sometimes would review the baptism of a person getting married and put a star * in front of their names. Ellen, John and James had these marks. Checked it out, no luck in this parish, but the parish registers only go up to 1880. I'm going on and on. Glad I could help, Jeanne New York Important Note: The author of this message may not be subscribed to this list.
