Re: Diggins/Cronin

Hello Mare:

I search Irishgenealogy.ie, a new, free, online database of Co. Kerry & Dublin church B/M/D records. I found the following:

Baptism of THOMAS STEPHEN DIGGINS of CLAHANE on 31 December 1898 Parish of CAUSEWAY R.C. Diocese of KERRY
Name THOMAS STEPHEN DIGGINS
Address CLAHANE
Father MICHAEL NR
Mother MARY MC CARTHY
Further details in the record:
Date of Birth 26 December 1898
Sponsor 1 MICHAEL MC CARTHY
Sponsor 2 MARGARET DIGGINS

Baptism of HONORA CRONIN of TUREEN on 24 September 1899
Parish of ABBEYDORNEY R.C. Diocese of KERRY
Name HONORA CRONIN
Address TUREEN
Father MICHAEL CRONIN
Mother JANE WALSH
Further details in the recordDate of Birth 16 September 1899
Sponsor 1 WILLIAM WALSH
Sponsor 2 MARGARET WALSH

This 2nd finding is the last rcd with this name in the database. There may be other rcds post 1900 which were collected by civil registration. These are kept by the General Register Office (www.groireland.ie). Fees apply.

Hope this helps.
