Dear PegCrohan:

Thank you for your post to the message board.

I'm attaching a snip of the civil death record of Catherine Moloney who died on 2 January 1890 aged 70.  She ws listed as the widow of Thomas Moloney and her son, Patrick was present at her death and registered it.  Their address is Aherina.  This townland was known as Aherinabeg and the family is listetd there in the 1901 Census.

http://www.census.nationalarchives.ie/pages/1901/Clare/Cloghera/Aherinabeg/1082669/

Aherinabeg is located within the civil parish of Killokennedy.  The resources for that area are on the Clare Library website at this link:  http://www.clarelibrary.ie/eolas/coclare/places/killokennedy.htm

However, you will also note that Aherinamore townland is located within the civil parish of O'Briensbridge.  The resources for that are are also on the Clare Library website at this link:

http://www.clarelibrary.ie/eolas/coclare/places/o%27briens-bridge.htm

You will see in both civil parish links given that there are parish register transcriptions contained and I would recommend that you look through them.  You will also find civil births/marriages/deaths after 1864 for this family in the Bridgetown registration district and in the Union of Limerick  (even though they are located in County Clare).  

If you have any other questions, please let us know.

 

All the best,

 

Jane
