I had previously recorded this census information, but had been unable to trace them back any further to Ireland. It seems that there are not many records to be had in the Muskingum County area durng that time (late 1840's and early 1850's). Thanks again for taking the time to get back to me. If you have any suggestions on wher I should go next in the Muskingum County area, please let me know. Happy Hunting!
