Denis Moroney
« on: Monday 18 July 11 16:52 BST (UK) »
I am looking for information on Denis Moroney.  He married Catherine Condon, and had Four Children, Ellen 1867, Mary 1871 (my grandmother),Alice 1868 and Catherine 1864. On the birth certificates it has Priestown as thier place of birth.

Iwould like to find out where and when he died and where he was buried.  I never knew him as I was born to late.

Any information of this family would be welcome

Many thanks in advince
Maggie

Hi...

I did find a death for a Denis Moroney but it was in Bansha in 1881. I did find a marriage of a Denis Moroney to Catherine Condon 1855 in St. Peter and Pauls Parish in Clonmel. Also I can find 5 matches to children of Denis and Catherine but these births look like they are registered in the Ardfinnan area of south Tipperary.

Annie
The surnames, which I am interested in are; Maternal side: Ryan, Kevin, Grant, Grady, Gleeson, Walsh, Dwyer, Paternal side: O' Dwyer, Woodlock, Rochford & Britton - all in Tipperary; and Kelly and Hoynes in Laois.

Ryan, Campbell, Luttrell, Grant, Grahame, Bainbridge and Brown in Queensland, Australia

Tighe in Victoria, Australia.

Grant in Philadelphia, Sullivan and Penny in New York; and Britton in Connecticut

Do you know where Priesttown is?

If not, its a townsland between Drangan and Mullinahone. I live in the next townsland.

I will be going to Dungarvan in August.  How far is it from there and in what direction.  I do not drive, so is there any busses I can catch, if so what number and where.

LOL ! I'm afraid not, no buses around here.

Are your Moroney's from Drangan? (Priesttown is in Drangan) I don't see any Moroney's in the census' in Priesttown. Priesttown is a very small place, I'd say no more than 8 families live there now. Of-course there was many more families / houses back in the 1800's.

What do you want to know? I might be able to help, as I practically live in Priesttown.

All I would like to know is did he have and brother or sisters, and the name of his parents. Or any other info that can be found.  I have the year that Mary Moroney died, it was 1947, Tipperary (she was my Grandmother).  When did Denis die?

I don't see any Moroney's in Griffiths in Priest town. If you find out where they were living, I'd be glad to take some pictures of the house / land.

What I will do for you this evening is check the inscription booklet I have for Drangan's one and only old graveyard. Maybe there will be some Moroneys. I will also check Mullinahone's inscription booklet. I'll let you know the results.

I think it may be the other Priesttown... I linked one of the births (Mary 1871) , and it's registered in the district of Clogheen, and the subdistrict of Ardfinnan as Annie mentioned.. that district looks to be south of Cahir ?

see :
