Looking for Moran ancestors/descendants

Post by judy izenberg »

I'm helping a friend look for his Moran ancestors. Peter Moran married Brigida Moran on 14 Jan 1856 in Loughglynn, Roscommon. Their son Andrew, born anywhere between 1871-1882, emigrated to Boston, MA @ 1897 and lived here with/near his brother/cousin John J. Moran for many years. John J. Moran married in boston and had many children. He says his parents names were Andrew and Anne (don't know her maiden name). On one census the 2 men Andrew and John were said to be brothers however with different parents names, perhaps they were cousins. We're looking for any descendants of either family as well as info on ancestors.

I have looked on the 1901 Leitrim-Roscommon census and find a Peter with wife Bridget and 3 daughters from townland Driney in parish tibohine in Barony Frenchpark. Perhaps this is the one I'm looking for?

Any thoughts?

Thanks

Judy
