Notes
General:
Michael and Sarah Quinlisk were sponsors at Baptism (TNFHF).

Terry Farnham Kovacic says that he died on January 5, 1894, the same day his namesake nephew was born.

140207: There is a W. Quinlisk listed as a grocer in the 1889 Bassett's Directory of Ireland. This is more than likely the same person.

030607: Here is a transcript of his death certificate obtained by Fergus Kennedy: Date and Place of Death: Fourth January 1894, Cloughjordan Name and Surname: William Quinlisk Sex: Male Condition: Married Age last Birthday: 30 Rank, Profession and Occupation: Publican Certified Cause of Death, and Duration of Illness: Eurocarditis; 10 weeks; Certified Signature, Qualifications and Residence of Informant: Margaret Quinlisk present at death, Cloughjordan When Registered: Twenty-second January 1894 Signature of Registrar: looks like M.

 Cause of Death: Heart Attack, 10 weeks

Events

•  Occupation: Royal Irish Constabulary, 1845, Ireland. 160920:
Kevin Quinlisk's family tree shows that he enlisted in the Royal Irish Constabulary in 1845. There is a source for this but it only mentions his name and it could be another William Quinlisk. I think Kevin may have acccepted this without other verification because there is a long history of employment as law enforcement officers in his family and this seems to fit. But the age is wrong. The enlistee was only 22 in 1845.
