- This is a proposed connection between John Galvin and Patrick Galvin. John appears in the Griffiths Valuation for Leabeg townland, which neighbors Kilnagoolny, where Patrick lived and raised children. A John is also the firstborn of Patrick, which follows naming conventions.
The Ballinahown parish shows a marriage between a John Galvin and Mary Murray 18 Feb 1838 and at least one daughter from this marriage -- Bridget Galvin c. 24 Aug 1845. There are multiple DNA matches between Murrays and Patrick Galvin descendants, and this could be the connection.
