I am trying to find information on my Great Grandfathers Family. All I know is that, Great Grandfather was "James
CONBOY", dob 1840.
James was married to "Margaret
McHUGH" dob. 1840 and they lived out in Lisdadnan, Mohill. Co. Leitrim.
Does anyone in Mohill have "James
CONBOY" in their family line.
Did my Great Grandfather have any
Brothers or Sisters?
In the 1901 census on Leitrim-Roscommon web site, my Great Grandfather is shown to be working as a labourer and living in Lisdadnan with his wife and 3 of his children, plus his Daughter in Law ( the wife of James
CONBOY, who was our Grandfather) and his
Grandson.
John was known as James within our family., and he was married to Nellie
Winters Names from the 1901 Census

Surnames associated with the Maternal side of the Family... perhaps there are people with these names in Mohill who might recognise our GreatGrandfather as being related to them.

"Griffiths Valuation 1848-1864"
Many of the town(land) pages link to the Griffith's Valuations Indexes on
John
Hayes' website, which can be found at:--
http://www.failteromhat.com/griffiths.htm When I checked the web site I was able to find a mention of, " Patrick
CONBOY" from Lisdadnan, Mohill. Co. Leitrim. who I believe is my GGGrandfather.
