Patrick Maughan, Intinerant Tinsmith from Ballina, Co Mayo born about 1851

Hi,

i am looking for information on Patrick Maughan. Patrick possibly married a Margaret Mangan. He was possibly born around 1851 in Ballina Co Mayo, Ireland. He was an irish traveller and worked as an intinerant tinsmith. I have record of him and his family residing in tents in Loughil, Co Sligo in the 1911 Ireland census, but have been able to find out little else, any information on his parents and marriage record would be greatly appreciated! thank you!

Please show full details from the 1911 entry - wife Margaret plus children’s birth years and birthplaces and children’s names

They are in the 1901 census as MOHAN.

This is the link for the 1911 census

This is a very confusing family. I suspect Patrick's wife used two or three names: Margaret Mangan, Margaret McDonagh and Mary McDonagh. Of course, I could be muddling different families.
