                (e)William Dawson 
                (arrived approx, 1832 with sister Mary, and Brothers
                Thomas, John, Patrick) Their Parents were
                    (f) William Dawson and (f) Catherine Broderick.

I have more info on the O'hara's in South March, dating to 1842 in
Ottawa but on both of these families I haven't been able to ascertain
the exact location in Ireland. 
Could you assist me with any info or steer me in the right general 
direction?

Dear Al,
Further to my entry in the Table 3 More early settlers to the area. Jan, 23,
2002
The only info I have found for William Dawson son of William Dawson and
Catherine Broderick is a birth Certificate for his sister Catherine in The
Parish of Kilcommon, Address, Tooreen.
Date 8/3/1814.   Sponsor Carmody John and Hickey Mary.
However I haven't been able to asertain where in North Tipperary this is, or
even if it still exsists.
If you or any of your readers could help me out I would be thankful.
Thank you and best regards,
Larry Dawson
