Hi, Trying to find information on an Elizabeth Hamilton born about 1790 she married an Andrew Green. They had two daughters Elizabeth who was probably named after Andrew's mother and Margaret. I am wondering if that could be her mothers name. Elizabeth and Andrew Green ended up in NJ living with their daughter Margaret who married Robert Stewart. I know there was a landholder around Ballintra but I do not believe this Elizabeth Hamilton came from money. Any ideas would be appreciated. Barbara

Hi Ellen! The 1857 Griffiths Valuation names the heads of the households in each townland in Donegal - if your Annie's father wasn't married or the head of his household then, he won't be in it. One good thing though - there was a Denis Timmony and Bryan Timmony as heads of their households in the townland of Mullanasole, Drumhome parish in 1857. The other Timony households were Edward, Francis and James in Rossilly and Edward in Oughtnadrin. Anne Timony was born 29 Jun 1872 to William Timony and Catherine McCay - thats the civil registration info for her birth. If you get her birth certificate or a copy of her birth registration from the Registrar in letterkenny, it will tell you exactly where she was born..............also, marriages were registered for Catholics from 1864, so you may even find her parents marriage. That will tell you their townlands and father's names. Once you have those, you have a solid place to continue your research. I have info on various ways to order the certs/copies online at http://freepages.genealogy.rootsweb.ancestry.com/~donegal/howto.htm Hope that helps!
