Thank you...Helen you have made my day!!! Your info has added so much to m research..I am finally figuring out where I came from..still have trouble with part of Ireland..most likely Roscommon..Patrick Mcqueeney is from Leitrum...he came over in 1881 with ,I assume wife Mary(Foley) and a son Patrick who was born in Scotland in 1880..Wow.....some records list Mary born in Scotland and others say Ireland...I guess they married in Scotland and had 3 children there who died ..according to U.S census..By the way I grew up in Worcester in the Lincoln -Burncoat section...Thanks again, Pat

Hi Pat,

I don't know if this helps you much, but if you go to the link below, and search for "McWeen*y" , you'll see all the McWeenys living in Ireland during the 1901 census:

I happen to have a McWeeny in my family tree who is from Leitra in County Leitrim.
