Some History:
The Catholic Curate who conducted the baptisms and maintained the register from 1897 to 1905 inclusive, was Fr Hugh Sweeney
He was born about 1864 in Acres, Burtonport, a son of Hugh Sweeney (Acres) and Grace Boyle (Michael, Arranmore)
Some of his family history can be found in notes within the 1901 census of Leckenagh. His entry in the 1901 census is within the 1901 census of Golan
Father Hugh Sweeney died at the end of 1905 and is buried in Kilmacrenan
He also wrote two books on the evils of drink (after he gave up the drink himself!)
