Can anyone help me with his one? I'm looking for any information on the follwoing family.

Arthur Moore born c. 1820 married Ellen Hart in around 1840 Ireland. They had children Patrick, Sarah and John there and then move to Macclesfield where they have Mary, Thomas, Philip and Arthur. The family seems to be involved in the Cotton/Silk Industry of the town according to the census returns for 1851, 61 and 81. I can't find ANY of them on the 1871 census for some reason. From what I am told, Thomas and Arthur went to Paterson, New Jersey and set up home there around 1893. Does anyone have these people in their tree at all.
