Earliest Known Ancestor: John Driscoll, father of Timothy

We know from the marriage record of Timothy Driscoll and his wife Hannah McCarthy that Timothy's father was John.

We know Timothy and Hannah had their son Jeremiah (project member's grandfather), in Milane, Dunmanway.

This could be Timothy with wife Hannah (Johanna) McCarthy in Ballady, Kilmonoge DED, Kinsale in the 1911 census with a brother Denis, aged 72, and the 1901 census, with a brother James, aged 70.

Note that a birth record hasn't been found for Maggie, aged 13, listed in the 1901 Ireland census. Could she have been Timothy's niece instead? We will revisit this line of inquiry later.

This leaves us with the following information when searching for the ancestral John Driscoll with these sons:
Timothy b.c. 1852-57 d. 1933
James b.c. 1831 d. unknown
Denis b.c. 1838 d. unknown

John (1878) is interred at St. Eltin's Cemetery, Kinsale.
