Need help reading these two Irish Surnames.

Surnames: Leonard, Connaughton, Quinn
I have had information on my 4x great grandparents for quite some time, but have been unable to figure out their mother's surnames. They are written in a bank note in 1854.

I believe the top one to be Mary G______? *SOLVED* the surname is GOREN.

And the second mother to be Mary/Missy Quinn?

I have been unable to trace them without knowing their surnames.TIA. Any help is greatly appreciated.

I read the second one as Mary Quinn.

Sorry but I am struggling with the first one.

I see that Roadford, Coy Clare is mentioned. I've drunk a goodly amount of Guinness in McGann's Bar there over a number of visits!

I read both to be Mary Quinn. The first is penned with a larger curlicue at the top than the second one.
