McManus and Kearns of North Roscommon

My great great grandfather, James McManus, was born
about 1815 in the North Roscommon area of Ireland.
I believe he married Elizabeth Kelly there around 1835.
Both James and Elizabeth are likely to have died during
the famine of 1847 as my great grandfather,
John McManus and his brother Thomas, emigrated as young
boys to County Durham, England - not with James and
Elizabeth but with people who were not their parents.
John and Thomas stated in the 1871 Census that they
were born in Keadue and Ballyfarnon respectively. John
settled in Crook, Co. Durham with his wife, Bridget
Kearns. Bridget stated in the 1871 Census that she was
born in Roscommon. Her parents were Michael and
Elizabeth Kearns, who were born around 1815 in the
Roscommon area. In 1869 Bridget left Crook to visit
Boyle, North Roscommon, where she gave birth to my
great uncle Thomas before returning to Crook. I have
been unable to trace other children who may have been
born to James and Elizabeth and I will be grateful if
anyone can inform me of any appropriate traces they may
have.Thank you.
