Pete,

I had a look at the Tithe Applotment Books at the National Archives. There are 32 entries for "Stones" in Co. Offaly. One is for Lurgan: Widow Margaret Stones seems to have had the largest plot of land in the village in 1827. Maybe she's the matriarch of your line?

For Fearboy, though, there are no Stones listed. So the Bridget Stones who died there in 1876 at age 77 (thanks for the info) didn't live there in 1823 - 1837, or remarried after her first husband died, or etc.. I read once you're lucky to get back to 1800 in doing Irish family history, and I'm beginning to understand why.

Jack,

I have a GGF Patrick Stones. I found a probate record for him and he passed away in 1907. He lived in Fearboy north of Tullamore. So that's not him, but might be a relation. Thanks for the info.

Welcome to RootsChat Stonesy
You haven't given any dates.
There is a birth of a Patrick Stones to Patrick Stones and Mary Hynes in 1873

Is this your ancestor?

It's late here now but Patrick's baptism is in Moate parish register July 24th
http://registers.nli.ie/registers/vtls000632446#page/146/mode/1up
So there may be earlier records to find in this parish

Interesting note by the priest Father Patrick Sheridan on the marriage of Patrick Stones to Marium Hynds 28 Dec 1866   a bit hard to decipher but looks like
Mary Hynds was received into the C Church this same day by Father Smyth and illegible ?(sent before ?)the register at Athlone ?illegible
signed Patrick Sheridan

right hand side under A D 1867
28 Dec

there also seems to be a reference to the marriage in Athlone
