Back to the obituary of Johanna Collins Donovan (1826 - 1917), a sister of Daniel Collins (1814 - 1894), my grandmother's grandfather; of Jeremiah Collins of Adrigool (1821 - 1903); of John Collins of Adrigool (1818 - 1886), and other of their siblings. Descendants from the Sullivans of Myross were among the mourners at Johanna's funeral, listed as "cousins."
These Myross Sullivans were partially documented in prior posts here and here. However, the ancestral family, that of Daniel Sullivan and Margaret Keohane of Myross, along with their descendant branches, have not been presented comprehensively.
... Mrs. Pat Nyhane, Rosscarbery; Miss Eileen Barry, do.; Miss Francis Barry, Dungannon; Edmund Barry, do; Miss Maggie Daly, Froe ...
Mrs. Patrick Nyhan was Mary Agnes Barry (16 Jun 1880), who married Patrick Nyhane on October 28, 1913. Their family lived in Rosscarbery. Mary Agnes was the daughter of James Barry and Eliza Sullivan. Their family also lived in Rosscarbery.
Miss Eileen Barry (01 Dec 1892) was a sister to Mary Agnes.
Miss Frances Barry (b.c. 1887) married Patrick Fitzpatrick of Barley Hill on February 11, 1926. (I have not found her birth record.) Frances was the daughter of John Barry and Anne Sullivanl. Their family lived in Benduff.
Edmund Barry (10 Apr 1877) was a brother to Frances.
Miss Maggie Daly of Froe (17 Jan 1895) was the daughter of James Daly and Maria Barry. Maggie Ann married Timothy Lalor of Ardagh, Rosscarbery, on March 4, 1919. Maria Barry is believed to have been the daughter of John Barry and Anne Sullivan, born 02 Mar 1871. Maggie's parents married around 1893. I have not yet located the Daly-Barry marriage in civil registration.
Among the siblings of Anne and Eliza Sullivan was an older brother Thomas (1834 - 1918). His birth and baptism would have preceded the available Castlehaven & Myross R.C. records. He is a focus of investigation, because, of the all the known church events of the known children of Laurence Collins of Adrigool (1783 - 1867), the name Thomas Sullivan appears five times:
As a witness to the marriage of John Young of Derryclogh and Mary Collins of Adrigool, 30 Dec 1855.
As the godfather of Laurence Collins of Adrigool, 13 Sep 1857. Parents Jeremiah Collins and Mary Hourihane.
As the godfather of Nancy Sullivan, baptized 30 Sep 1860 in Castlehaven (probably different Sullivans). Nancy's mother was Catherine Collins, likely a daughter to Laurence.
As the godfather of Catherine Collins of Adrigool, 13 Oct 1861. Parents Jeremiah Collins and Mary Hourihane.
As the godfather of John Collins of Adrigool, 29 Dec 1864. Parents John Collins and Catherine Sheily.
There *might* be some Collins reciprocity among the Myross Sullivan records. There isn't much, possibly because many of the interactions would have occurred in Castlehaven & Myross prior to 1842, for which the records did not survive. For now, I am assuming it is one Thomas Sullivan and that it is the Thomas Sullivan from Myross. This may not necessarily be the case !
The family of Daniel Sullivan and Margaret Keohane
I have not found a surviving marriage record.
Thomas (1834 - 1918). Godparents unknown. He married Catherine Coakley 20 Feb 1873 in Rosscarbery. They lived in Myross. He died 19 Apr 1918, aged 84.

Anne 22 Sep 1844 godparents Michael Sullivan, Margaret Power. She married John Barry 31 May 1870 at Union Hall. The family lived in Benduff. Their daughter Mary (Maria) is believed to have married James Daly of Froe about 1893. The Dalys lived in Froe. Their daughter Frances married Patrick Fitzpatrick 11 Feb 1926.
Eliza (1845 - 1939). Baptism record not found. She married James Barry 30 Jan 1877 at Union Hall. The family lived in Rosscarbery. Their daughter Mary Agnes married Patrick Nyhane of Rosscarbery 28 Oct 1913. Eliza died 07 Jan 1939 in Rosscarbery.
Owen 09 Oct 1846 godparents Jeremiah Donovan, Catherine Sullivan. Not sure if the name is indexed correctly.
Margaret 22 Mar 1848 godparents Daniel Collins, Johanna Collins. Mother indexed as Peg Sullivan. Margaret married Jeremiah Driscoll of Collatrum 08 Aug 1872. They were in Collatrum Beg, Aghadown in 1901.
William 27 Sep 1855 godparents Michael Sullivan, Mary Kelly.
It is unknown if Daniel Sullivan was related to the Michael Sullivan of Reen, who was married to Anne Barry. Their daughter, Eliza (03 Mar 1872) married a Collins man from Adrigool.
