Looking to trace the ancestors of Mary Moriarty (b. 17 March 1889, Tralee, Kerry- 1982, NZ). Her Father and Mother were Michael Moriarty and Ellen McCarthy. I've hit a block wall beyond that. :)

Might be difficult tracing Michael Moriarty back as there are quite a few Michael with Father as Michael.
Ellen however is another story - looks as though she was baptised the same day as she got married.
