      The interesting thing here is the name of the second born- Cain. The IGI records have a Father Kane Mahony and Mother Ellen Walsh having a child Helena Mahony 1 May 1872 Cork Ireland. Now as Cain/Kane is such an unusual name I am pretty certain that Nora Mahony must have named this child after her father. This then would make him the father of Helena too, so the IGI record must be of the Helena that married Stick, John O'Mahony. I would not normally make such a presumption but this seems fairly clear cut.
      Also seeming to confirm the theory is that John and Helena named their daughter Ellen, which is the same as Ellen Walsh I also did a parent FamilySearch parent search using the IGI and found Cain/Kane Mahony and Ellen Walsh were also parents to Hanah, John & Hannorah. I have listed them also using the same theory. having a daughter of Cain/Kane and Ellen named Hannorah and Helena having a sister Nora seems to make the theory stronger.
