Hi
My name is Jennifer and I am researching my great great great
great grandparents William Fenlon and Bridget Doyle cleared from Lord Fitzwilliam's land in County Wicklow.
Wondering if you've come across info on them in your research. I would be most grateful for your assistance.
Thanks
... Jennifer Till

Thanks to Anne Burgess for the following information:
Hi Al,
I have some index pages to the Clonmore parish records, and so I can give some baptismal details for the Fenlons, but not the sponsors:
1824-09-11
Bapt. of Margaret, d/o William Fenlon and Bridget Doyle, Kilanure
1844-10-27
Bapt. of Thomas, s/o William Fenlon and Bridget Doyle, Killanure
And I’ve cut and pasted in below the Excel file of my transcription of the 1839 rentals record (a sort of census).
My guess would be that Jenny’s William was living with his father, Thomas Fenlon, and these records show only heads of families.

More from Jennifer:
I don't know who is in this photo. I was told they were Fenlons and it was taken in Ontario but I don't know.
Note: This photo was taken at the Dorion Studio in Ottawa. See early photographic studios in the Ottawa area.
More terrific photos from Jennifer to come ... Al

Hi
I was on facebook with my recently reunited Fenlon family back east and they posted a photo of my great grandfather
James Joseph Fenlon and his bride Elizabeth Ludlow Murray - he's the owner / operator of the pool room and barber shop in Alberta.
thanks for the website link, I will pass it on.
