While perusing other sites I found 3 Looneys in Canada. A Charles 1846, & David 1847, seemingly received emmigrant travelling assistance. Maurice Looney, age 30 in 1840 was in a list of passengers aboard ships bound for Quebec from Ireland, gives names & ages of adults & children, & their occupation. These can be found on Tuffsearch's Immigration Links--great site, lots of information. Hope it helps someone. ld
