Crossey - DIamond families - Ballyvanen & Altergrove

Hi there, I'm new to this family tree business, so apologies if this repeats other questions.

My father was Edward Crossey, Nov. 1930 - Oct 1974; only child of James Crossey (c1882-1932) and Mary Elizabeth Diamond (1901-Aug 1953).

James in turn was a son of Edward Crossey and Mary Donnelly. In 1862 he rented land at Ballyvannon

My father and granny lived in a small farm, Roses Lane End, Feumore.
Anyone recognise the names? Can we fit our family trees together?
