Has anyone come across the Leavey surname in the Mohill area of Leitrim? I've done some searches but come up with nothing in the databases. I'm looking for a marriage of Margaret Leavey to Michael Kilduff sometime around 1850. Their first child was born in the US in 1852, so they may have married in IRE and emigrated soon after.

Even by the 1901 census, there were still 46 families.
