There was a son also...maybe Richard a year or two before or after Ellen's birth. I do not known "the maiden name of Joseph Haslam's wife..."Ellen...?" Or the date of their Marriage...? Ellen Haslam, their daughter was Baptized at a Church in Portlaoise.? Within this time period of 1838-1848...was it Marysborough or Portlaoise? Ballymacken/Ballymackan seem to be just a street with 9 Families living on it...is this True? Any help, guidance would be appreciated, thank-you!!
