Is it possible to scan a little more of the page that  includes a  lower case L. - e.g.. Ireland

Hello, thanks, please see attached.

The lower case Ls are certainly much taller, so I'll vote for Cearney  :)

CLARNEY? Certainly a name that can be found in Ireland in early 1900s.

Indeed it can!  ;)

John

Its from the 1891 census, he appears as a boarder with my family. Hugh Mooney is the head of the family.

We wondered if he eventually married the lady who is identified as Elizabeth McIvor on the census who says she is my GG grandfathers Sister.

I also think Elizabeth might have been my GGG Grandmother Bridget (on some of her kids death certs. Elizabeth McIvor also known as Bridget Kerr) who just got misidentified on the census as sister rather than mother in law.

But Elizabeth McIvor could work as a sister as her mother would have been an Elizabeth/Bridget/Biddy Mooney, nee Kane.

Its possible, her second marriage was to a John but i cant find anything. This Elizabeth was born around 1841 in CO. Londonderry and so i have missed out on the catholic church baptism record being online.

Just a bit of back tracking to see if John Cearney married an Elizabeth McIvor (widow).

Thanks
