    Eugene Kilcommins, son of Daniel Kilcommins and Maria Mulligan of Buncrower, b. 5 May 1894, bap. 13 May 1894 at R.C. Church at Glinsk, Co. Galway. Sponsors: Michael Tiernan, Maria Tiernan.

    An almost identical record gives the church of baptism as: R. C. Church, Kilbegnet/Ballinakill, Co. Roscommon.

    A civil birth record on the same site gives the information for Owen McEnery (Owen and Eugene are forms of the same name): b. 29 June 1894, son of Daniel Kilcommons, a farmer, and Mary Mulligan of Buncrower. The informant was his father, Daniel Kilcommons, who signed by mark. The birth was registered on 5 July 1894.

    Parents were required to register the birth of a child within twenty-one days, or face a fine. Often, they failed to make the deadline, and adjusted the birth date so that it fell within twenty-one days of reporting.
