Hi Dawn,

Ballymoat is actually spelt Ballymote, if you google it you will see there is quiet alot about it, more about the Ballmote Castle though.


The Ballymote was found on the 1891 census, remember that's how it would be spelt if someone was spelling it on her behalf.


So you now have an area to work with.......... tracing her father James maybe difficult though, Irish ancestry is terribly difficult to trace.
