Many Moynihans moved from Killarney area out to adjacent parish/towns in early 1800's and further afield. Even today some of them are still buried in Aghadoe cemetery. Jeremiah was popular first name, as was Michael , Timothy.

Have you tried familysearch? Eg. there's a family of children including Jeremiah, Andrew, Abigail, Margaret, Humphrey and Ellen born in the 1860s - 1870s to an Andrew Moynihan and Grizy (Griselda) Sullivan in Co. Kerry.
