I am unable to tell what names goes with what parents on the 17-and 22 of June 1855. Does Ellen go with the father Pat Morony and Mary Hayes? Or, are there twins, John and Mary that go with John Malony and Elita Watson even thought the parenthesis is directed toward Mary Hayes?

Ireland, Clare—Church Records, 1740–1913 [Part B][M3KJ-DJ1]

Thanks for your help.

    Ellen= Pat and Mary Twins= John and Eliza That is just my opinion though because t he brackets do confuse things. I am basing my judgement on the pattern of the other names. One child two parents down the row which puts them as I wrote but you are the one doing them so your judgment trumps mine if you disagree.

    Yes, I think that is the way to do it. I think the bracket simply connects the twins and not the parent.

    Thanks for a much needed second opinion.
