I am looking up information on my grandfather, John Joseph Conway. He is the youngest son born to William Conway and Mary Meany. He was baptised in the Parish of Freshford on the 7th of February 1928. Hoping to get any information on both families. Are there any Conways/Meanys still living near the area? Thanks!

Welcome to Ireland Reaching Out!
I located the civil marriage record in 1920 for William and Mary which shows the names of their fathers. You have to sign-in to see the record.

The images for birth records are only available until 1915 at present. Baptismal records ae not online.
I went back to the 1911 census and did not find the Conway and Meany families in Freshford. I found a possible record for Mary with a father John.

Let me know if you have any questions.
