Brennan Families in Balla and Manulla Roman Catholic Parish Records with Spouse's Surnames J-L
Regarding Surname Joyce: Mary Brennan sponsored the baptism of Pat Jos? on August 24, 1902.
Regarding Surname Kelly: Honor Brennan sponsored the baptism of Catherine Kelly on May 27, 1866. Marg? Brennan sponsored the baptism of Thos Kelly on December 1868.
Regarding Surname King: Patrick's parents Peter and Margaret appear to be from Carnahan. I couldn't find this specific Townland; there is a Carrownahaun in Balla Civil Parish though I am unsure if it is the same Townland.
Regarding Surname Langan: Thomas Brennan witnessed the marriage of Thomas Brennan and Mary Langan on April 12, 1858. I couldn't find any Townlands resembling Lasserem, only Legaturrin in Balla Civil Parish which sounds like a long shot. Thomas and Betsy appear to be twins born on October 12, 1867. Thos Brennan is a sponsor for Betsy.
Regarding the Surname Lawless: I could not find a Birdnafanne, but there is a Ballaghfarna and a Ballinafad in Drum Civil Parish that are possibilities. William's baptismal record mentions W. Boilla as the Townland, could this be a West? Balla or Ballaghfarna in Drum Civil Parish as mentioned above.
Regarding the Surname Lawley: In the baptismal record for Catherine Lawley, her parents hail from Celophis?? This doesn't resemble any towns in either of the three Civil Parishes.
Regarding the Surname Loftus: Bt Brennan witnessed the marriage of Edw Loftus and Mary Brennan on January 26, 1893. SKiddernagh is in the Civil Parish of Manulla. Martin Brennan sponsored the baptism of the child of ? Loftus and mary Brennan in January 1894 (I believe that Edward Loftus is probably the father as future records will show). John Brennan sponsored the baptism of Bridget Loftus, daughter of Ed Loftus and Mary Brennan on September 8, 1895. Honor Loftus appears to have been baptised January 2, 1902 vs 1901. A note in the margin states that she married a Robert Cater?
