Did a quick search on Scotland's People.  There are seven people named Finnigan (sic) in Rhu, Dunbartonshire in 1911.

Included are two Peters, one aged 30 and the other (Peter M) aged 4.  There's also a 26 year-old Maria.

Looks good, but you'd need to purchase the record to be sure.

As regards Ireland in 1901, there's a 16 year-old Mary (sic) A Moore at house 15 in Annaghkilly, Clones Rural in Monaghan.  There are a few Peters in Monaghan of the right sort of age, with surnames that are close enough, though none in Clones.

My daughter was in Dublin at the end of the year & I got her to go to the GRO office to hand in some copying requests for me (paying by cash).  I've used this service a few times now and have been very happy with it.

This time they offered to email the results as image files rather than sending photocopied sheets by post.

Now, if they can do that, surely it's a small step to placing the request & order process on-line, with card payment.   They really are missing out on a money-spinner.

Hi,

As you've noted yourself elsewhere, the 1871 Census entry appears to have Hoary (rather the indexed Heary).  That's close to Horey in terms of the spoken version.  My guess is that Hoary is more likely to be closer to the Irish original and Horey is the modified version as recorded by an English official.

There is an civil registration record for a marriage of an Anne Coyle in 1868 in Athy Registration District (which covers parts of Counties Kildare and Laois).  On the same page is the record for a James Hoaren.

Using church record searches, a process of elimination reveals that Anne Coyle did not marry anyone else on that register page.  She did marry a James, but the surname is not transcribed as Hoaren, Hoary, Hoarey, Horey etc (which is a bit of a puzzle).  The marriage concerned was in Athy RC parish, Kildare.

Good old LDS Family Search has a collection "Marriages 1619-1898", which doesn't appear anywhere else that I know of.  It has a record for a marriage of a James Hoaren (again) to an Anne Coyle on 30th June 1868 in Athy, Kildare.  His father was John and hers Patrick.

That 1868 marriage looks very promising - I'd be sending away for that. The English 1872 death record for James (if you don't have it already) may give the names of his parents.

There's a James Hory who was the witness to a wedding in Cork in 1861.  Yes, that's jumping about the island a bit, but the reason I mention it is because there's an 1824 birth in Cork of a James Hoarey (sic) whose father was John.  1824 is a bit earlier than the age on the 1872 death record would suggest, but not implausibly so.

What were the names of the couple?
