Hi Daniel, I’m intrigued with you search database. I understand that we are related way back sometime in mid 1700’s, which is a bit of a black hole with all the record sets I have researched to date.
Could I ask a favour of you?
I am looking to locate “Field” ancestors who possibly married Ryan’s from the Limerick/Tipperary areas around the 1700s.
Could you please do a quick search on your database to see if something is there, Male Field marrying female Ryan.
I did find a few things looking around. I just noticed your other post, so I'll do another search.
The 1659 Census has:
John Feild gent of Killmacanirly, Clouncha Parish, Connlogh Barony, Limerick.
The Tipperary Hearth Money records for 1665:
Thomas Field, Cloghonan, Templederry, Tipperary.
Willm Field, Glanagh, Aghavamedill, Tipperary.
There is a "Dictionary of Irish biography : from the earliest times to the year 2002 [9 volumes], edited by James McGuire, James Quinn" which I don't have access to. It mentions: "Thomas Field (Fehily)".
Happy to help. But these are very common words in the database. It doesn't help there is a lot of sporting articles that mention "field". Do you have a full name or a townland?

I have a Joannes Field in Fedamore Limerick married to Brigida Kennedy in 1787, I think his father was Patrick possibly married to a Catherine Ryan.
Found these mentions:
The Cromwellian Settlement of County of Limerick:
John Field & Wm. Thompson (Grantees) at Dourlass, Corcomohide and Clonecreane Parish, Limerick.
John Field & Wm. Thompson (Grantees) at Kilmiteria, Corcomohide and Clonecreane Parish, Limerick.
Paper (name not mentioned) 8/1/1832:
"DEATHS
At Bantry, of cholera, John Field, Esq. Surgeon."
In the Old Limerick Journal, the article "John Ferrar's Limerick City Dicectory - 1788" mentions:
Patrick Field owned a livery stable at the Square, Newtown Pery.
I hope that helps.

Don’t worry this spelling is correct, the surname changed for some reason when my ggf, Daniel Field, came out to Australia in 1878.
