My 6X Great Grandfather was Peter Mooney born [according to the 1841 Census, Liverpool,  Lancashire] in Ireland.

I have only the 1841 and 1851 Census information to go on. His age on both gives him a birth year of 1809 and his trade was that of a Smith / Blacksmith. The trade is also endorsed on his 3 Childrens marriage the last being 1869.

Can you give me any pointers to where he may have been born.

  • Hi,

    From looking at this site, it appears that your ancestors may have come from Offaly?
