The name Maurice is a family name for our Dorney family from the Ardfinnan, Tipp area of Ireland.Our known Maurice Dorney was born abt 1800 and marr. He married Mary Hagon or Hogan and had five children that we know about. These are Joanna Dorney b.22 feb 1819, Maurice Dorney b. 15 Feb 1823, Edmund Dorney b. abt 1825, Margaret Dorney b. 25 May 1826, Mary Dorney b. 18 Jan 1829, Maurice Dorney b. 1835.We think the first Maurice must have died as a baby.
The above data from church records Ardfinnan Parish and located in Waterford Hist. Center.
We also found a Maurice Dorney marr. to Ellen Marony on 21 May 1857 in Memphis, TN.And wondered if he was the Maurice above.
The Maurice b. abt 1800 was the brother of an Edmund and a William Dorney, all who came to America.What dates do you have because some of William's children came through New York for a time before going on to Chicago, where they had another Maurice Dorney who was the famous Priest of the Cattle district there.
