Am still trying to understand Derrynoose which seems to be divided between Tynan and Keady. Am sending you this note because a James Donnelly appears as a witness on my ggggrandmother's birth certificate in 1818. Her name was Bridget McPartland from Derrynoose and her son was Patrick Hughes who immigrated to Philadelphia in 1866. He married and settled there working as a grocer. Not sure what dates you have for your James in Derrynoose. Looks like there was a Derrynoose Tynan Keady community in Phila.
