Haley, Havey and related Families of Yuba Co, CA

I have just entered in WeRelate a number of birth and baptismal records for descendants of the Haley families who went to California during the Gold Rush. These are from the records of Immaculate Conception R.C. Church in Smartsville.

Owen/Eugene McEnery of Monagea Parish

I think I have satisfied myself that Owen McEnery and Eugene McEnery are the same person. When, years ago, I received the report from the Limerick Regional Archives, the parents of Catherine, Bridget, Patrick, John, Thomas and Mary were identified as Owen McEnery and Mary Collins. Today I found Thomas's baptismal record at the brs.genealogy site. In this record, the names of the parents are given as Eugene McEnery and Maria Collins. Now if I can just get in touch with the O'Driscoll who has his family tree on the web and is presumably the great-grandson of Eugene (and grandson of John, and son of William Joseph O'Driscoll and Margaret McEnery) I could find out his sources for Eugene's birth and death dates.
