Is this Daniel and Mary Ann in 1911?
http://www.census.nationalarchives.ie/pages/1911/Antrim/Shankill/Lesley_Street/172094/

Mary Ann states 11 children born alive and 6 still living. Have you the names for the deceased children?

yes that's the family, the children are their grandchildren

So do you have all Daniel’s children with the ones who died?

You would then know if James was still alive in 1911.

There is a death here for James Moore, 7 yrs, son of James Moore, Flaxdresser.
The address is Lesley Street where Daniel Moore is living in 1911.
https://civilrecords.irishgenealogy.ie/churchrecords/images/deaths_returns/deaths_1906/05564/4562288.pdf

I don’t know how this affects your research, kerry.

Good find, heywood

James Moore, son of James Moore and Margaret nee Grant was born in Belfast (Legoniel), as were his brothers before 1901.

It is all very puzzling.
Here is Maggie Corbett in 1911 - 21 Lesley Street
http://www.census.nationalarchives.ie/pages/1911/Antrim/Shankill/Lesley_Street/172106/

Daniel Moore (posted earlier ) was at 7 Lesley Street in 1911

The death of James (posted earlier) was at 14 Lesley Street in 1906

There are a couple of published trees which show children born to James Moore and Margaret Corbett giving the address 19 Lesley Street.

Do you have the Moore/Corbett marriage certificate, kerry?
Title: Re: James Moore
Post by: heywood on Friday 13 August 21 09:58 BST (UK)
Do these mean anything to you, kerry?

Daniel Moore (son of Daniel) married Margaret Armstrong in 1905 - address is 14 Lesley Street.
https://civilrecords.irishgenealogy.ie/churchrecords/images/marriage_returns/marriages_1905/10179/5703681.pdf

A son James born 1907
https://civilrecords.irishgenealogy.ie/churchrecords/images/birth_returns/births_1907/01701/1674775.pdf

He would be very young though if he was father to Margaret, 1926 and Arthur, 1928.

How old was your James when he died in 1930?
Title: Re: James Moore
Post by: kerry1212 on Friday 13 August 21 10:26 BST (UK)
yes daniel moore who married margaret armstrong is my husbands grandparents, their son thomas born 1914 is my husbands father, i have found family has he never knew them but no one knows exactly what is going on with them all?
Title: Re: James Moore
Post by: heywood on Friday 13 August 21 10:29 BST (UK)
So James is not your direct line?

the problem was when i had my husband do DNA we had a close match and i spoke to her then other family members has she didn't know who her grandfather was, she said it was james moore who married mary corbett? very confused

Post by: kerry1212 on Friday 13 August 21 10:36 BST (UK)
limehill st and lesley street are where all the family lived, but i have found some things just don't add up, like my hsbands aunt sarah /sally her parents should be daniel moore and maggie armstrong yet someone found a birth to daniel moore and catherine armstrong? i am confused and no one in the family knows what is going on?
Title: Re: James Moore
Post by: heywood on Friday 13 August 21 10:38 BST (UK)
The marriage might be to Margaret/Maggie Corbett rather than Mary and you would need to check those marriage details.
The death details of that James might help too as I mentioned earlier re informant etc.
He might be the James (birth given earlier) who is brother to your Thomas.
Thomas’ birth

Just so confused, and other have no clue as to who is who either, i have tried to do the tree as best i can but some either don't fit or there are some missing? daniel moore who married maggie armstrong was supposed to have had a shop mclelands row but no one remembers anything althogh they heard about it, and a cousin said when she went to visit she would go and see a lady named lizzie harper has the grandparents house was fll? when i asked oters they said they had never head of her?
Title: Re: James Moore
Post by: heywood on Friday 13 August 21 11:07 BST (UK)
She was probably registered in 1921 so the record would not be available on Irish Genealogy.

If you are going to do a tree you need the evidence to support what you include.
You would be best to begin with the ones you know and find birth and marriage records plus census if available.

Then you could go to the wider family.

I have just seen the tree which has Susan b 1920 with parents Daniel and Margaret but no evidence.

I came across births to Daniel Moore and Margaret Armstrong
Maggie - https://civilrecords.irishgenealogy.ie/churchrecords/images/birth_returns/births_1917/01322/1546372.pdf
He is a Grocer and living in Legoinel Road.

There is also this which could be them
Sarah Jane b 1919
https://civilrecords.irishgenealogy.ie/churchrecords/images/birth_returns/births_1919/01234/1513424.pdf

Daniel is a Butcher and the address is Antigua Street

I see these are in that tree also but no links to the births.

Post by: kerry1212 on Friday 13 August 21 11:15 BST (UK)
Yes that's them, it is daniels brother james we are having problems with did he marry margaret grant and marry again when she died in 1905? to catherine mckendry?
Title: Re: James Moore
Post by: heywood on Friday 13 August 21 11:19 BST (UK)
He may well have done according to the marriage posted earlier.
It also looks as though his son, James, with Margaret Grant died as mentioned earlier.
Are there other Daniel Moores around with these children?

No a family member told me it was him, which is why i am doing this to find evidence instead of hearsay  :)
Title: Re: James Moore
Post by: heywood on Friday 13 August 21 11:29 BST (UK)
In that case, I would look for the death and get the certificate to either confirm or eliminate from the enquiry    :)

KG, is there a death for James Moore, 1930?

It seems as though each time someone is found, Kerry already has the details so it is proving a bit difficult to help as I now am not sure where it is leading other than James Moore who we started off with  ;)
Title: Re: James Moore

I think i should start a new topic and ask about james again, there are too many conflicting stories, one says it is their grandfather and another says it is james brother joseph?

James Moore   9th January 1930       85      Male     Belfast
James Moore   22nd January 1930        80      Male     Belfast

I don’t think there is a need to start a new topic but if you do make sure you link this thread otherwise you will likely get all this information found and posted back to you.
I don’t understand what you mean by ‘one says it is their grandfather and another says it is james brother joseph ‘
Who do they mean?
If that is another tree, then they should be finding the information  ???

Sorry - but who is saying these things ‘one … but another’?

As far as I recall, you have Daniel and Mary McManus with children.
In 1911 -married 40 yrs with 11 children/6 still living.

You have the marriage of James, son of Daniel and Mary Ann; the 1901 census and the death of Margaret Grant.
You have a death for their child James.
You have a possible marriage for James and Catherine McKen..

You have a marriage for Daniel son of Daniel and Mary Ann and censuses.

You have some reference to James  (possible son of James and Catherine McKen..) and Margaret Corbett (have not looked over this thread to find it but I know Maggie C is in 1911 census as a child.

You would need to look for a marriage /death for Joseph Moore here I think

I think Kerry thought it was James who married her and there was the puzzle of which James.
