This may your lucky day,Brendan. Then again, you may already know the following.
I visited Loughguile last year and the Parish Priest let me go through a transcript of the Baptismal Register.I recorded the following:
Children of James MOONEY and Margaret McSTAY:
Catherine & Mary (twins) baptised 1/11/1887; Roseanne 12/12/1888, James 22/02/1890, Margaret 22/03/1891, Thomas John 23/04/1992, William 6/05/1893, Joseph 12/05/1894, Hugh 6/01/1896.
In July last year I was in contact by email with a Kathy Mooney who is a grandaughter of Joe Mooney.At that time her address was [email protected]
I haven't traced a connection with my grandfather who was born in 1841.His parents were John Mooney and Bridget McMullin and the records had only one sibling for him - Daniel.Of course James who married Margaret McStay may have been his brother and born/baptised elsewhere.He did name one of his sons James.
I took photos of some MOONEY graves.I'll go through them and see if I have any for you.
Regards
