I am looking for decendants of Bernard Lonnia/Loney born in Fermanagh Ireland circa 1845 parents Patrick and Mary O'Brian.
He married Catherine Gordon in 1867 her parents James Gordon and Marjory McGuiggan possibly from Kincardine.
I have the information from the Scotlands people site.
Hoping someone can help Hazel

Hi Hazel
And welcome to Talking Scot.
We cannot help you trace living relatives, but it may be worthwhile, if you have not already done so, to trace the family forward through the census years - you will at least be able to trace forwards to 1901 and possibly after that through deaths and if children married etc.
Best wishes
Lesley

3. BERNARD LOONEY - International Genealogical Index

and here is your family from the 1871 census:
