    It is a common practice in this district to qualify various (Christian) surnames, if common, by addition of Christian name of father or mother of the family e.g. Patrick Deeney (Pat)' Joe Sheridan (Anthony). In common speech the surname is left out and people are referred to as Neil "Peg", Joe "Anthony" etc
