    Welcome to Ireland Reaching Out!

    I searched on the subscription site Roots Ireland and found baptismal record transcriptions for four children of Michael Galvin and Bridget Scanlon. The records were in the Kinvara RC parish in Co. Galway which is very close to the border with Co. Clare. The four children were Anne, Catherine, Michael and John. The Kinvara baptismal and marriage records start in June 1831 but there is a six year gap in records from May 1837-June 1843 which explains not finding more records. Here is a link to the 19th century parish register up to early 1881 https://registers.nli.ie/parishes/0632

    I'm not sure about the Kilrush Kildare reference. There is a town called Kilrush in Co. Clare but it is not close to Kinvara.

    Let me know what questions you have.
