Who is the Hugh with wife Isabella and child Isabella baptised 1836 at Whitehaven?
The aunt Mary Ann Roney on the 51 census living with Philip born Whitehaven c1777 could this have been Hugh's sister or if sister  in law which Roney was she married to.Where were they on the 41 census?

Today I finally received the certificate of Hugh Roney/Rooney/Merney etc etc.
 
You may recall that I was told that a 35 year old Hugh Roney had died  16th March 1841 Queen Street Whitehaven and I was intrigued as my Catherine Philip and Barney Roney were at Queen Street 1841 after losing their dad Hugh Roney 1839.
 
Full praise to Whitehaven register office who responded to my plea and found what looked to them like Hugh Mooney aged 35 Queen Street.
 
The cert came today Hugh MOONEY a mariner of 41 Queen Street aged 35. The informant is Elizabeth Lindow of Queen Street who was present at the death.
 
Looking at 1841 census I think maybe the address was 71 and not 41, I see a Jane Money living near Elizabeth Lindow.
 
I think this is perhaps a dead end, I know you should never rule anything out but Id be suprised to find a mariner amongst my lot and although Jane is a family name- I really dont think Money/Mooney is Rony/Rooney.
 
By the way if these are anyones rellies then I will gladly provide a copy.
 
Thanks to all who offered suggestions- knowing is better than not knowing I suppose:(
