Richard Molloy 1810-1876 and Hannah Roche 1817-1876 help

Hello, I have been looking for more information on my relatives from Wicklow County, and received great assistance from c. Wright at Wicklow County Archives, but hit a dead end.

Records show Richard Molloy a tenants of Viscount Powerscourt in the townland of Annacrivey in the 1850s.

it looks like Hannah Roche was Protestant - there is a baptism of a Hannah Roche in the Church of Ireland (Protestant) parish of Powerscourt in 1815.

If there are any connections or information to help me trace my 3rd great grandparents tree further, and possibly any family connections please reach out. I have my tree with DNA results in Ancestry dot com.

Thank you for any and all help!

RootsIreland gives information for eight baptisms in parish of Enniskerry for children of Richard and Hannah.

Thank you, I do have those records as well, I am hoping to find siblings, parents or previous residency of either Richard or Hannah (or distant relatives of mine who may have more family information). 
I am not sure if they (Richard and Hannah) moved to Enniskerry from other locations or if they met there.

Thank you for the confirming information Patricia! It is appreciated!

Hi Joe,

The 1815 birth record for Hannah that you referred to shows that she lived in the townland of Ballybrew.  

According to townlands.ie:

Ballybrew is in the Electoral Division of Enniskerry, in Civil Parish of Powerscourt, in the Barony of Rathdown, in the County of Wicklow

So it looks like Hannah stayed in Enniskerry.

I hope this is helpful.

Very much so, thank you Patrícia! I will be doing more research on Ballybrew!
