I am also looking for the death of William Higginson sometime after 1792. There is an unknown Higginson death on IFHF 1798 in Limerick - any chance of finding out who it was ?

HI, I have the film for the St. Mary's Cathedral records. What you listed below is the only thing that is listed. There is no mention of parents. I contacted the C of I Archives to see what was listed for my ggggrandparents Paul Hughes and Maria Louisa Fitzgerakd and the only thing listed was what was on the film. I was able to check the newspaper and it provided me with her father's name. What may have helped in my case is Paul was an Ensign with the 79th Cameron Highlanders and Maria's father was an Attorney and Notary. I believe the Church record and the newspapers are for the same marriage.
