Hi Jodie
Bridget Mooney was named Ann on her birth certificate from 1894 - link here.
https://civilrecords.irishgenealogy.ie/churchrecords/images/birth_returns/births_1894/02274/1854167.pdf
I could not find her anywhere with the family in the 1911 census, eventually found her recorded as a pupil at St. Joseph's Industrial School in Kilkenny.
I searched exhaustively and pretty sure this is correct
Happy to share other research info on this family if you would like

Thank you for getting back to me.
I think it is the right Bridget. I have her marriage certificate and her father is named as Thomas mooney. She is living in dublin at the time, which would fit in with the rest of the family.
There is a half made family tree on ancestry.co.uk and Bridget is listed as being from kildare.
There is only one Bridget around the right time with Thomas as the father and born in kildare.
I thought I'd see if you knew any other info because you can never be sure!!
Thank you for your time
Jodi

hi folks

Have a research subject in my tree whose occupation is listed as "Private M.D.F" living in Curragh in 1916.
Could someone help to clarify what M.D.F. stands for, I cannot seem to find any information. My thoughts are Majesty's Defence Force

Many thanks

Meabh

Hi Maggs
Have done a bit of research on this, and got stumped too.
Pelletstown is also known as St. Patricks Navan Road and was a mother and baby home.
On Alice and Thomas marriage cert she is listed as a domestic servant there. Originally from Swinford in Co. Mayo. Her parents were John Donegan and MaryAnne Conmee
Birth cert here https://civilrecords.irishgenealogy.ie/churchrecords/images/birth_returns/births_1896/02180/1825221.pdf
Would love to chat with you and get the descendents of the family into my tree.
We believe that Laurence Fox and Bridget Nolan are my father in laws great great grandparents!

hi folks
This is amazing to find this thread.

We have been working on a family mystery and I have, through DNA, located Laurence Fox and Bridget Nolan as potentially great grandparents of my father in law, who never knew his own father.

I have done a lot of work on this family line and just trying to figure out where the foxes might have fit in with the other family that has come up, lysaghts/lycetts etc

Happy to share any of my research with you re the Fox/Mooney/Williams side of things
