Thank you for your reply. I had no idea about the Callahan surname (or why) and would very much like any info you are willing to share. I never understood that large age difference between Cornelius and Patrick and had always wondered if the ages on the ship manifest were incorrect. I have very little on Cornelius (outside of the Robinson papers) and have only recently concluded he is buried in the Downeyville Cemetery as the Lyons surname is memorialized on a plaque there. I do not have a date of death for him, his wife, nor a comprehensive list of their descendants. You can reach me here or at JustKathHere @ roadrunner dot com

Thank you again!

Hi Coleen - After a bit of research, I have come to find there are two different Lynes families with brothers named Cornelius & Patrick. Yours is the one that took on the Callahan name, mine is not.

My Cornelius was 35, arrived on the Brunswick, and hailed from Mallow, Cork. The Lyne(s) family you referenced are 13 & 19 yr. old brothers arriving on the Elizabeth, from Liscarroll, Cork.
