Hello Chris: Noted your comment about the name Cornelius regarding Frawley family. My McAuliffe family came out of the McCarthy Clan in Cork in 1214. My g-g-grandparents Daniel & Catherine(Curtin) McAuliffe were married in Mahoonagh on July 30, 1813. My understanding from a source in Cork claims the family earlier had split into two branches to better identify the lines. The Connie-David line and the Jerry-Florie line. The Connie was short for Cornelius, Jerry short for Jeremiah and Florie short for Florence, which was a man's name at that time. It was unknown whether the two joined names were father & son or brothers. At the time of the children's births, starting in 1816, including my g-grandad's in 1830, the family lived at Newcastle West, Limerick, where the known four were baptized. Since there was eleven years between the first two and last two, we wonder if there were more in a different location. I wonder if anyone has any records of the family in Mahoonagh. I seem to be the onlly person researching this line. Andy McAuliffe, Kitchener, Ontario, Canada

Hi Andy and others, I have some limited information for Frawley from Limerick (Clare?) connected to my Mason line. I had posted at the irl-clare rootsweb list last year but, would be willing to post again if anyone thinks they might have a connection to these Chicago Frawleys.
