HI Jennifer...if your ancester spelled her name Queenan then she is likely from Co. Sligo or Co. Roscommon as that is the area of origin for the Queenan name.Although Irish research can be difficult there are lots of Queenans in that area now.
If however she spelled it Quinan(e) then she is likely from a more southerly part - possibly Tiperary.There is a great website on the Quinanes put up by an Australia person - perhaps you can find it to give you some more information.
I am actually looking for a Patrick Queenan born a bit earlier than your Jane - likely about 1814 in Sligo or Roscommon.
Hope this helps.
Sandi
