The Boston Pilot was a Catholic Newspaper based in Boston that listed missing Irish emigrants. 

Many family members put advertisements in an effort to find the whereabouts of loved ones - in a day when Facebook and Google where unthinkable! The following advertisement was placed by Annie Moore (no - not the first person to go through Ellis Island, she was much later in 1892). Does anyone know where all these brothers went? The Cloonsellagh I assume is today's "Clonkela". There are many Moore's mentioned in the early Catholic Baptism records - 1831-1846)
