My guess is that they're originally from Thavnair or around Radz-at-Hahn, mostly because the Mamool Ja in FFXI were around Aht Urhgan (which I imagine will be very similar to Radz-at-Hahn). Though the Mamool Ja could also be in the New World, for all we know.
The mamool'ja actually come from the 'New World', that is, the mysterious unnamed continent to the west of Aldernard and Vlybrand that Limsa Lominsa had recently discovered just prior to the Calamity (Thavnair and Radz-at-han are actually near Othard, that's to the east of Eorzea). They were brought over to Eorzea as a cheap source of manual labour, to fill manpower shortages in the aftermath of the Calamity, but as the realm recovered and people started to get back on their feet, the mamool'ja increasingly had to fight 'natural-born' Eorzeans for jobs, thus causing a lot of resentment from them and sending many onto the streets and out into the wilds to become bandits and sellswords (the FATE in Eastern La Noscea '9 to 5' specifically mentions this).

This is also why mamool'ja are currently only found in Vlybrand - it's the closest portion of Eorzea to their homeland.
