Moore family

I am descended from Edward Lucas Moore and Jane Moore who married at Drumsnat Church in July 1872. Am looking for any info on the family.

Welcome to Ireland Reaching Out!
In case you don't have a copy of the civil marriage record,
Located the 1901 and 1911 census records in Keenogue townland. The 1911 record indicates that Jane had three children but only two living in 1911.

I looked at the free site www.irishgenealogy.ie for civil birth records and the only record I found was for a William in 1874.
Edward Moore died in 1920 https://civilrecords.irishgenealogy.ie/churchrecords/images/deaths_returns/deaths_1920/05129/4412212.pdf
Jane Moore died in 1914 https://civilrecords.irishgenealogy.ie/churchrecords/images/deaths_returns/deaths_1914/05287/4469367.pdf

Hi Thank you for this info its very helpful. From the wedding certificate it seems that Edward's father was called William Moore and was also from Keenog, Jane's father was Robert Moore and it looks like he may have been from Keagh? Is there are info on him that you are aware of? Thanks Nicola.

Unfortunately, the baptismal and marriage records for the Cof I church in Drumsnat are not online. (I'm making the assumption that they were all from that parish).
This link shows that the records are maintained at the Representative Church Body Library in Dublin. You will need to visit Dublin or get a researcher to check out the records. Eventually, the records will be digitized and placed online.
