I hope you have some luck with your search for William and Stephen.

I'm going to try those links Jon posted and hope I come across my Mathew/Matthew somewhere - but I won't be holding my breath!

Hi Lynne,

How’s your search for Matthew going? I’ve been looking myself and can’t find anything.

I’ve seen a few family trees linking Jas and Matthew but can’t find anything else!

It does make sense if he was from Armagh/Portadown area.

Many thanks,

Lizi

Hi Lizi,

How strange that I should come here today after virtually 2 years to the day and find your message! I dip in and out of my family tree on Ancestry quite often, but forgot about this thread completely!

I'm still looking for Matthew but I'm building other strands on Ancestry and this had led me back to this thread. I didn't connect the Matthew mentioned above with mine but I'm wondering now if he could be him. I'm making a separate tree for this branch too but hopefully it will all link up some how one day.

The Jas you're seeing linked to Matthew on other trees was put on by my cousin who can't remember why he did it or find any links so please ignore that!

Hope you're making progress with your own tree and still enjoying the 'journey'.

Best wishes,
Lynne x

Hello,
Sorry to revive a dormant thread and piggyback on it, but I was very excited to read your Moneypenny research when it came up in my google search. I have reason to believe I am related to this line, and would love a quick chat to find out more.
Hoping you're still around...?!

Hi Laura,

Garstonite got in touch with me earlier, and yes, I'm still here! Pleased to meet you!

My Moneypenny lines goes from me, to my Dad Matthew, Grandad Matthew, G Grandad James, G x 2 Grandad Matthew.

Which line are you from?

Re Ancestry, I've learned to be very cautious over the years of people who've only shared other people's trees! :D

I'll drop AD a line and see what he/she knows!

Thanks,
Lynne

Thanks for the link to the Will Hallmark.  Very interesting.  I've saved a copy for my files.  One day it will all link up!

Paco,

I've had a look at the tree but unfortunately this person has copied it off another Ancestry Tree that hasn't got any proof or verification. :(

Thought I'd finally got through my 30 year old brick wall for a minute then!

Thanks for looking. :)

Matthew is shown on an online tree as being married to an Elizabeth Cretney who was from the Isle of Man. A tree also shows Matthew's father as James Moneypenny born 1782 Ireland-will need checking well of course.
regards.

Thanks Paco.  I have my Cretney line going back years but no father for Matthew.  the Matthew whose father is James sounds like my Grandad but he (James) was born in 1852.  My tree is on Ancestry.  Is that where you're looking?

Armagh / Moneypenny's Lock, Craigavon
« on: Thursday 11 January 18 14:37 GMT (UK)  »
Hello.

I've recently discovered a newspaper cutting from 1840 that mentions some of the Moneypennys who lived at the lock. There was a dispute over whether current resident, Rose Ann owned the house she lived in.  She was the daughter of Stephen and William, her brother was living in a newer house nearby.  Her father, Stephen was the son of old William who was the son of Matthew. 

I wonder if anyone has any further details on the family that lived here. 

I am searching for my G x 2 Matthew Moneypenny b c 1809 who I only have history for after he left Ireland.  This is the first time in 30 plus years of looking, that I have found a 'Matthew' Moneypenny in any Irish records!

Any help would be appreciated!

Lynne

No I'm not sure either.  I'll have to work through my notes (a library full...) and see why!   

Thanks again for everything!

Lynne
