Yes, Liam, a veritable minefield.  i have stared in perplexed wonder at the 
thickets of Devlins in and around Arboe for years, not knowing how to wade into 
that tangle. The records of the cathedral of St. Catherine’s, Ontario help some 
in that sometimes the vital records tell exactly the town the people are from. 
Besides my ancestral pair, who had many children, ultimately died and were 
buried there in St. Catherine's, and were sponsors of many baptisms besides, 
there are Quinns and Henrys from Arboe listed, as well as others. But I 
appreciate your cautionary warning and am tip-toeing around.
