Austin Tuohy & Mary Quin from Ennis (Drumcliff) Clare

[glenaklein]

I am interested in finding any information about my Tuohy family that came from Clare, Ireland. The information that I know is that Ellen Tuohy (my Gr Gr Grandmother) who came to Maryborough, Queensland, Australia around 1885, was born in Ennis, Clare, Ireland around 1865. I knew that her parents were Austin Tuohy and Mary Quin, so I found her baptism on 5 June 1865 along with her siblings Mary 18 December 1857, Sara 22 June 1860, Pat 4 February 1963 and Bridget 7 October 1868. I also found Austin and Mary's wedding record as 24 August 1852 (Austin was listed as Justin).

I also searched 1901 and 1911 census records for any of the family that may have stayed in Clare. I came across an Austin Tuohy in the 1901 census aged 60, so he is probably not old enough to be my Austin. He was living with his son William (aged 42) wife Ellen (aged 24).

I would like to find out any more information about my Austin & Mary family, including Ellen's siblings's families.
