Surnames: MOONEY, McWILLIAMS Classification: Query Message Board URL: http://boards.ancestry.com/mbexec/msg/rw/JaB.2ACE/2978 Message Board Post: Seeking info on Fredrick MOONEY, born in PA around 1802), who married Margaret MCWILLIAMS (also born in PA around 1802) in 1825 or 1826. A transcription I have of the 1850 census of Cumberland Co. indicates that Fred. (age 48) and Margaret (age 48) were living in Cumberland County, along with 7 children: 1 - Mary J, age 23, b. 1827, PA 2 - Catherine, age 20, b. 1830, PA 3 - Hannah, age 18, b. 1832, PA 4 - Eliza, age 14, b. 1836, PA 5 - John A., age 10, b. 1840, PA 6 - George, age 9, b. 1841, PA 7 - Hans or Hoys, age 2, b. 1848, PA Note: 1880 census lists John A.'s birth year at 1841, not 1840 John A. was my g-g-grandfather. My family notes show that he married Sarah A. Smith in Dewitt, Clinton Co., Iowa in 1868. They moved to West Side, Crawford Co., Iowa sometime shortly after, as their first child was born in West Side in 1870. I do not know if John's parents Fred. and Margaret, or any of his brothers and sisters also emigrated to Iowa. Any information about these Mooneys or any of their relations connected to Cumberland County would be greatly appreciated.
