It was THE LIMERICK CLUE ..... .........that made that MOFFITT of FERMANAGH findable!!! For those who came in late to this line of research..... This is where the Limerick clue was found. Public Record Office for Northern Ireland PRONI Reference :D1729 Level :Fond Access : Title :Reverend James Moffitt Papers Dates :1858-1896 Description :65 Letters. Correspondence re family affairs of Reverend James Moffitt, Knox, Clones, Co. Fermanagh, to his daughter, Jane Anne Graham, and also to her husband, Edward Graham, Melbourne, Australia; also letters from some friends of Jane Graham re her marriage and her home in LIMERICK.
Indeed Carole.... and WITHOUT THE CLUE one would be looking for a Moffatt marriage at bride's Parish IN Fermanagh!! Even if one then looks at the marriage in DUBLIN... there is NO mention of Fermanagh!! Many married in Dublin, using temporary addresses! The marriage was found using MOFFITT and LIMERICK as search term BECAUSE OF THE CLUES.... Similarly....The KEYWORD/CLUE on the Will is GORTBRANNON!! THAT KEYWORD/CLUE is also included in 'THE LURGANBOY" WILL... tying the 2 families together WITH SOURCES... So one is up to 1911 Census.... With no Census after 1911 for Northern Ireland what other sources are there??? IGP in this case, probably PRONI too.. Further thanks then needs to go to person who donated a little time to take photos that might help others... and then further thanks to person who transcribed them... and then further thanks to Chris for hosting the website on which the photos and text are hosted. WHY take photos of modern g/stones?? To fill in the gap from Census to present time!! ...and shows WHY it is important for people visiting g/yards to take some photos to donate to make researching work, like in this example!
