Mc Donnell - Quin

James Mc Donnell - Quin.
1844 - married Mary Moloney in the parish of O'Callaghan's Mill/Kilkishen. (The image I have from the parish register is too large to attach here.)
Mary Moloney was from Drumminakela, which is in the civil parish of Kilseily; and yes she married outside of her home parish.
See attachment for their children and their birth/baptism details- all occurred in Quin.
Two of the children, i.e., James and Michael immigrated to New Zealand in 1879.
James subsequently married Bridget Neville in NZ a few months after their arrival aboard the ship Opawa.

I will post Neville details, as I currently know and can prove, separately.

Needless to say I look forward to hearing from anyone with more information.

PS I cannot find James Mc Donnell in Quin in Griffith's. Ofcourse there are many James Mc Donnells in Clare in Griffith's but how to know which one is "mine?"
