Hi everyone--looking for possible Moore relatives in Longford, possibly in Killoe area. My g-great grandfather Robert Moore was born in Killoe, baptized there Feb 15, 1832, parents Robert and Brigid Moore. Emigrated to Oil City, PA and raised his family there. His sister Sarah Moore (McCarthy) was born in Killoe and baptized Feb 16, 1837, also emigrating to Oil City and raising a family. A brother Peter Moore was born in Killoe and baptized on June 2, 1834; family records say that he remained in Longford and had two children, Mary and Thomas, so it would be great to connect with any descendants of Peter's. Another sister Mary Moore was baptized in Killoe on Aug 8, 1826, and family records say that her married name was also McCarthy but I don't know if she emigrated to the US. There were two more brothers, John, who I don't have any information on, and James, who reportedly was killed from a fall from a horse. If anyone has any connection to the Moore siblings or their parents, please feel free to e-mail me at kmsiner@hotmail,com (I often have trouble with my password with this website!) Thanks! Kim
