Jeremiah Moynihan was born about 1800.  His wife was Mary Murley.  They immigrated to Boston, Ma. in 1849 and settled in the area around Marlborough.  Their children were: Ellen, Daniel, Catherine, Margret, Michael, and Jeremiah.  My direct descendant is Daniel, born about 1832 in Ireland.  Their first 5 children were born in Ireland; their last, Jeremiah, was born in Sterling, Ma.  According to Daniel's son John's death record, his parents were from Co. Kerry.

This Jeremiah's had a brother, Daniel, who also immigrated around the same time.  I've seen mention that their parents were Jeremiah and Ellen.

I'm visiting Ireland this April 2023 so hope to find out some specifics about what town my Moynihans lived in (in Kerry?).

Thanks, Brian Moynihan
