    1. [IRE-CEMETERIES] Roll call - Castleblayney, Co. Monaghan
    2. Ron & Maureen Parker
    3. Hello again listers: My second request is for information from the Castleblayney, Co. Monaghan area, particularly east of town and around the Co. Armagh border. My grandfather was born in 1884 in Tullycollive, Muckno Parish, Townland of Moy and his family attended Frankford Presbyterian Church. I wrote to the church several years ago and was told they had no burial information, although I know from old letters received by my grandparents there was at least one member of my family buried there. Does anyone on the list live near Castleblayney and have information on burials there? Or know where I could look for this? Mary Jane (BAILEY) CROMIE, my great-grandmother, died in 1888 and her husband James CROMIE died in 1927. Relatives who may also have lived in the area as well included: MULLEN or MULLIGAN, CLARKE, ANDERSON, BELL, KING, CREAN, MAXWELL, HALL, and LUNDY. As my Cromie ancestors lived so close to the eastern edge of Co. Monaghan, many of the families they married into may have actually lived in Co. Armagh. As an aside, my letter to Frankford Presbyterian Church did reward me with lists of the marriages and baptisms that took place there over roughly a 150 year span, and I'd be happy to do look-ups for anyone who thinks their family may have attended that church.
