Looking for Ryan, Hooley and Skehan

Terry:

Welcome to Ireland Reaching Out!

I searched the subscription site FindMyPast and did not find a William Skehan baptismal record in Cappawhite parish. Same for Johanna Hooley. Any idea of an approximate year of birth for William and Johanna? There are a few William Skehan baptismal records in Tipperary. I did find one Johanna Hooley baptismal record in Roscrea in 1842 and did not know if 1842 was too late.

Name:Johanna HooleyDate of Birth:
Date of Baptism:26-Aug-1842Address:CarrigParish/District:ROSCREAGender:FemaleCountyCo. Tipperary
Denomination:Roman Catholic

Thanks Roger,  

Based on US Census data William Skehan would have been born around 1847.  Johana Hooley would been about 1846 and Timothy or Dennis Ryan would have been about 1840.

The 1842 record for Johana seems to be early.

Many emigrants adjusted their age (older or younger) when they came to their new country. So Johanna could have been baptized in 1842. I found three possible William Skehan records on the subscription site Roots Ireland. None of the records were in Cappawhite.

Thanks Roger,  Agree I was too swift to indicate the Hooley record was too early.  I have gone back to all of the unsourced family dates & locations and I am finding many discrepancies from data & records that I have collected for William Skehan, Johana Hooley & Timothy Ryan (or Dennis).  Even the names have evolved while in the United States so I can imagine how they could change as they leave their home county and immigrate to America.  

Thanks for the record links especially the dates so I could find the individual records.

All the best with your research! I did not look for Timothy Ryan records too many Ryans in Tipperary.

Thanks for your help Roger!
