rootsireland has baptisms for 4 children of Edward Mooney Mary McCalister
Elizabeth 1870
Edward 1873
Sara 1876
Patrick bapt 01 Mar 1870 all in parish of Porteglenone
Address given as Gortgole.
However marriage records for that parish seem to start only in 1864 so did not find any marriage.

Hello, I am also trying to find a Mooney in this area, Carmagrim. It is Margaret Mooney who married a John Craig. John was born around 1817. I cannot find a record of the marriage but I know that their first child was born in 1836 so perhaps the date was around 1835. I assume this marriage record would not exist as it would be one of those destroyed.

I would like to find out who Margaret's parents were. I am still looking for John's parents and siblings, but with so many Craig's in the Portglenone and Ahoghill area it is proving difficult to know who is related to who!

Civil registration of non-Catholic marriages began in 1845 and Catholic marriages from 1864. For earlier dates you need to see if church records survive- not all do and of those that do not all are online. Any idea of their religion?

Thanks Aghadowey, helpful as always. I know John Craig was Presbyterian, the children were baptised at the 1st Presbyterian Church inAhoghill.

Unfortunately 1st Ahoghill records start 1841 which is too early for the marriage- have you checked nearby churches? Ahoghill C.O.I. marriages start 1811.
