Find Ancestors

No I havn't, so being naive if I do that then that could possibly bring up cousins etc?? I don't have the birth cert, I have his marriage which he puts himself down as Jerome so left it as that as thats the'hard' proof I had. I dont have an 1881 census attatched to him so will have a look now. John Moons father was joseph moon/moone who married francis freeland, and then phoebe harmer. Thank you.

Victoria...have you checked to see if there were McCarthy's were in the area where Ellen married?
What was John Moons fathers name..???
Incidentally..."Jerome" was Jeremiah...(Check 1881 Census)...Have you the Birth cert..?

I can find them on the census too ........... just can't find a birth for her, or a marriage for her parents as have no idea who her mother is?? On her marriage cert her surname is Macarte, think this may have been a mistake as she hasn't signed it so wouldnt have been able to read it was spelt incorrectly. Think maybe it was her accent that made it sound that way?

Yes her children are as follows:
Jerome Moon 1854 (this is who we descend from)
Mary 1856
Frances 1857
Ellen 1859
John 1862
Catherine 1865
Norah 1867
Joseph 1869
Emily 1871
Maggie 1874
Julia 1876

Victoria....Do you have any of Ellen's childrens names...or was the one listed on the Census her only child to John Moon..?

Have found them on 1881 Census...

Ok thank you x

Christpher Mc Carthy D.O.B c1860

Elizabeth Mc Carthy D.O.B 1918 Liverpool D.O.D 12/2/1948 thats all I know of this lady wonder if you can help me out please she did marry William Thomas Osborne D.O.B 5/8/1910 Ireland, Occupation (General Labourer) D.O.D 18/12/2010

I have had no joy on the websites mentioned, anything else I can do?? Or am I just going to have to give up on this line??

anyone able to find anymore info?

Thank you for the 1911 look up. On her marriage cert she is declared as being 19, so that declares her year as 1933. She does seem confused about her age a bit!

Ellen's birth year varies from 1829 to 1836 depending on which census you look at.

What was her age given on marriage certificate?
