    1. Orr and Burnside 1827
    2. Tammie Thought perhaps you would be interested in this lease !!! Dated January 29, 1827 Lease of part of the lands of Carrickapolan for two lives from the first day of May 26, 1826 The lease is between Henry Brooke and Joseph Orr of Irvey in the Manor of Brookeborough , County Fermanagh, Ireland For and during the natural lives of Joseph Orr , his Heirs, Executors and Administrators and the lives of James Burnside aged about twelve the second son of James and Eliza Burnside of Corlough and James Burnside aged about 14 the second son of ( unfortunately the way it was copied it cut's off part of it right at beginning of the next side but following is how it looks to me ) ? as and Lydia Burnside of Corlough . Now remember I feel that those dates on the headstone for Thomas and Lilly have to be reversed as in no way would it be possible for Lilly Burnside wife of Thomas to be the mother of my GG grandmother Margaret Burnside Orr as the headstone states she is as there is no way a woman in her late sixties could have a daughter but clearly the headstone states THEIR DAUGHTER. And also remember that when Fleming Orr died on the bottom of the stone they had him as born or dying exactly one hundred years before he actually did so. So then they mortared it over and put the right data on the other side with his one small daughter and his wife. Lilly may have been nickname for Lydia , what do you think. Gail
