Thanks for all the sources.

I am still learning about this surname.  I am told that it almost certainly derived from Milnamoe in turn in Anglicised from the native Irish.  The name Milmoe/Milmo/Milmow etc was almost exclusively found in Co Sligo before the Famine and was interchangeable with the name Mattimoe where they were mainly to be found in Co Roscommon. Most of the Famine emigrants and those who left earlier became known as Milmore or Mattimore and some were recorded in both forms eventually becoming known as Milmore and Millmore, though a branch of the same family settled for Mattimore.
