Can you tell us what information you already have ?  If we try to follow these families forward, then you have a chance of a relative googling a name and being directed here. So the more names we put, the better your chances if you get my drift.  However, we don't want to duplicate what you already have.

William Robert Moore had a brother  John born 28/08/1855  and a sister Mary 26/08/1853 lived in Ballyhay Donaghadee area  I cannot trace any thing about them
His father John and mother Jane had a son Hugh Moore born 16/05/1864  my granda
on 1901 census in Ireland lived at 35 Herdstown   Ballycross, Down 
Jane died on 20/11/1891 John died some time between 1901 and 1911 but I cannot trace him after 1901 their are so many John Moore and none of the ages in the death record match unless his age on the 1901 Census was wrong on the 1911 Census my granda Hugh and family are living at 2 Hogstown Ballycross or Donaghadee and my father Robert Gamble Moore is listed he was born 08/12/1910    On John and Jane marriage cert 1849 his father is listed as a James Agnew Moore
