Michelstown Parish records show baptisms for the children of Thomas and Catherine as below, with a gap in available records from Jul 1801 to Sep 1814. ^[1]

Children	Baptism Date
John Heffernan	12 Apr 1792
Margaret Heffernan	27 Jul 1794
Stephen Heffernan	27 Jan 1797
Honora Heffernan	13 Jan 1800

Thomas and Catherine had more children than those listed above although unable to find birth/baptism records for those.

Traditionally baptisms took place at a time very near the birth date, excepting when the odd family 'saved up' and brought more than 1 child in for baptizing at the same time. This wasn't the case with Thomas and Catherine.
