The map below shows Newbridge in 1772.  The location of our house is near centre of the map close to the y in the road above the house near Jigginstown.

Above is an extract from the voters register that shows that an area with the same name as mine estate existed in Newbridge prior of 1840.

The name Moore of the voter is actually the same name of the previous owners of the house .  Maybe they are related.
