Seeking more information on my 4th great-grandparents, Edward Quinn & Catherine MacNamara from Balyna. I have located 4 baptismal records for their children in Johnstown parish in Kildare and Leighlin diocese:
James 21 Nov 1831
Margaret 3 Aug 1834
Mary 26 Feb 1837
Michael 9 Nov 1840--I descend from this son who married Elizabeth Anderson from Glasgow, Scotland. They are buried together in Des Moines, Iowa, USA where I was born and still live.
Seeking:
Edward & Catherine's Birth Records/Parents Names
Edward & Catherine's Marriage Record
Edward & Catherine's Death Records
Edward & Catherine's Land Records
Records for their other children: Catherine, Daniel & John. Would there be an Edward Jr. as well?
My family records are very jumbled for this branch and there seems to be a lot of confusion over whether the Quinns and MacNamaras were Irish or Scottish. This may be in part to Michael Quinn marrying Elizabeth Anderson from Scotland, but trying to untangle what I can regarding the Quinns and MacNamaras. Any help you can provide is truly appreciated!

Hi
I'm a volunteer with Ireland XO and would like to try to help, if I can.
First, could you tell me when and where Michael Quinn and Elizabeth Anderson married please?
Thanks
Linda
