Catherine Mahoney
Hello there, I have had a brickwall in my family tree for some time. My great grandmother was Catherine Mahoney believed to be from Ireland. I have her certificate in 1838 for her marriage to Thomas Povey in st Dunstans church Stepney. The banns were posted in November 1837 so by that time she was in England. We have recently done some online research and believe we have found her birth family in Clogheen. On her marriage she gave her father's name as Eugene and that is the only family knowledge we have. We believe she was born between 1811 and 1816 (age 25 on 1841 census)
We have found Eugene married to Catherine Cahill in Clogheen having the foolowing children
Johanna 1810
Eugenuium 1814
Jacob 1816
William 1823
As the records on line are not complete I wonder if they exist somewhere locally wher some kind person might find her birth. Alternatively I would just like to prove she lived therabouts until the early 1830s. i wonder if other records may exist such as Census or Sunday school etc.
I would really appreciate help or advice from someonw in the area.
