    I checked the Roots Ireland indexes and found an 1831 baptismal record for a Mary Drew with parents Henry and Bridget in the Askeaton RC church. Did not find a record for Patrick. The Askeaton records start in 1829.

    I also located the five children of Patrick and Eliza in the Askeaton church: Bridget 1855, Maria 1857, Catherine 1859, Patrick 1862 and Elizabeth 1863.

    I checked the 1850 Griffiths Valuation head of household listing for Iveruss civil parish and found a Henry Drew in Drominycullane townland.

    It looks like Henry Drew died in 1868. I found two Henry Drew civil death index records.  I think the two records are for the same person.
