Hello Bill. My BIVRI disk has the following: Luke WADDEN born 30th April 1867 in Camolin, Wexford. Parents James WADDEN and Mary K. (this is also on IGI). A possibility given that he seems to have named his first son James? Camolin is not terribly far from Arklow. Other entries around the same time (including a Philip) suggest that Mary K might be Mary KERAVIN. This is after Civil Registration began so you should be able to get a birth certificate if you think this is your man. Also if the parents were married after 1864 there should be a marriage certificate as well. Hope this is useful.
