Hello William Francis FERGUS! What a welcome query - you are only the second to ask for listings. Would you be willing to post to the FERGUS-L group your direct ancestry going back as far as you can - that way other people might be encouraged to post. There is no right or wrong way to post your information, whatever works for you. I would greatly appreciate it! And, I am personally curious as I am recording ALL information on the surname FERGUS, related to me or not. I will be returning to Northern Ireland for further research in November. Your information might help me to find further information on your family as I will be looking for deeds, newspaper articles, additional dates of birth and death, etc. No listings on the SPINNING WHEEL OR FLAX LIST for any FERGUS in either Co Galway or Co Roscommon CO GALWAY AND CO ROSCOMMON REGISTERED BIRTHS IN IRELAND 1864-1882: Fergus Owen 19 Feb 1866 Athenry, Galway #0444 C701284/4146 son of Patrick & Mary Heavy Fergus Thomas Loughrea, Co Galway Year 1867 #00014 00586 Fergus Bridget Roscommon, Co Roscommon Year 1869 #00003 00383 Fergus Bridget Loughrea, Co Galway Year 1872 #00004 00154 Fergus John Loughrea, Co Galway Year 1877 #00004 00431 Fergus Michael Loughrea, Co Galway 2nd quarter 1879 #00004 00417 Fergus William Loughrea, Co Galway 4th quarter 1880 #00004 00330 INDEX OF HOUSEHOLDER'S FOR CO GALWAY & CO ROSCOMMON ca 1866 Fergus Owen 19 Feb 1866 Athenry, Galway #0444 C701284/4146 -----Original Message----- From: Franferg@aol.com <Franferg@aol.com> To: crussell@traversecity.com <crussell@traversecity.com> Date: Thursday, October 15, 1998 12:18 AM Subject: Listings >Cynthia, > >I'm a newbie and would like your listings from Co.
