Francis Worthington of Moneybeg - b. aby 1722, d. 1793

CarlowDunleckny (Carlow)

I'm looking for information regarding Francis Worthington of Moneybeg*, co. Carlow, Ireland. The will is dated 23 March 1793 and mentions his wife Phillis Winn [Wynne?] Worthington, his eldest son Edward and youngest son John. My grandfather requested and received a certified copy of his will from the Public Record Office of Ireland in 1892 -- before(!!) the 1922 fire.

I'm willing to share more information with anyone willing to do likewise.

* Moneybeg is also known as Muine Bheag and is near Dunleckney and Bagenalstown in co. Carlow.
