Re: Question about interpreting baptism records and Electoral lists
Thank you for your fast response. I'm aware that the Frost's were large families in the Clare and Limerick area. I'm having similar issues with the Clune family in and around Quin.

Question about interpreting baptism records and Electoral lists
I've been rummaging through mid 19th century baptism records and 1860's electoral lists to try to unwind some of my Clune and Frost ancestors. I'm seeing another name after the head of the family that I don't know how to interpret. For example, in the 1860 electoral list for the Sixmilebridge Pollin...

John Clune of Mount Levers and Clonmoney, Co Clare
I believe that I'm descended from John Clune who was a farmer in Mount Levers between 1800 and about 1817. Ancestry.com gives a probate index entry for a will in Co Clare for him in 1817. * Is there a chance the original will is left and if so, where can I find it? * His children were Roman Catholic...

Re: Help needed with place names
Thanks for all this. Janet Frost's "History of the Frosts" at the library website mentions a 1800 marriage contract between Mary Frost & John Clune. Her article doesn't provide a location to find that contract. Are there any suggestions?

Help needed with place names
My 2nd great grandfather is Bartholomew Clune who first shows up as leasing property in Ontario, Canada in 1851. His census and death records give his birth year as between 1821-1824 in Ireland. His Catholic marriage record in 1857 gives his origin as Quin, County Clare and his parents as John Clune...
