Hi there

I have no idea where in Ireland that John Mahoney (c1847) was born, I know he married a Bridget (unknown surname), also born in Ireland.

They left Ireland and went first to Manchester and then show up in the 1881 census in Arlecdon, Cumberland.

Does anyone have any idea where in Ireland he was born and also about his wife Bridget.

Thanks Stuart (Auckland, NZ)
