According to the American census records, Rose McKinley who married John McAllister, immigrated in 1858. Rose was born in 1844. Her parents were John McKinley and Mary A. Cloud. Mary McGugan and her husband came to US in 1873.

Barbara, I can see why you're confused. It looks very user unfriendly. None of the paths on the URL seem to match the site pages. I found it simply by Googling "Parish Map of Antrim". But I can't get there from the Irish Ancestors home page. One option is to overtype Antrim in the URL with the county you want, but there was nothing for Tipperary and Mayo produced an error. Try the Google option. Make sure you include the quotation marks so it searches for the whole phrase. I'd also try Genuki. It should have links there. If you get stuck, send another message with specific details of what you are after. If I can't answer it, I'm sure somebody else will. Peter in Sydney

Olivia, How long are you there and how are you getting around? I picked up a hire car in Dublin and drove around Ireland for 10 days. But just watch hire care conditions. They didn't like taking cars from Dublin into Northern Ireland, so I didn't get there. If you have the time and are not restricted, I found New Grange a fascinating place. http://www.knowth.com/newgrange.htm I'm sure other will have their favourites. Plan well and have a good trip. Peter in Sydney

Thanks Peter....I use this site on my Irish Research on the Internet page and I go over the links often to make sure I know how to use them...and this one really confused me....I try what you have suggested....I really liked those "county" links and have used them often.

I am researching the WRIGHT family who were born and lived in or around Dunaghy from 1863, first born Henry to 1879 last born Rose. My grandfather was George born in 1870, one of 8 children of James WRIGHT and Ellen ROCK. He became the Schoolmaster in Newmills, Tyrone. Alan Cooper North Wales

Hi Alice Try the link below. Copy the link to your browser don't click on it. You should see Carnmoney as it is to day. But if you go to the bottom box on the right near the bottom you should see Historic.

Hello Dianna If you look here there is a Hugh Heaney, Sprit dealer, of 35 Winetavern Street, listed in 'Spirit Dealers of Belfast 1860'. Could be that Belfast is where James was born? http://www.ulsterancestry.com/ShowFreePage.php?id=247 Susan -----Original Message----- From: [email protected] [mailto:[email protected]] On Behalf Of dianna charles Sent: Monday, 25 January 2010 12:26 PM To: [email protected] Subject: [IRL-ANTRIM] James Edward HEANEY/HANEY Hi I'm trying to find information on James E.

Hi all, I'm visiting Northern Ireland in August. Has anyone got any good tips for old sites to visit. I'm particularly interested in my McQuillan/Glenravel history, so a visit to Dunluce is top of my list.   Love to hear any suggestions,   Olivia Northcott nee McQuillan

Back in the late 90's, I copied a page from an LDS film when I was chasing Neeson relatives from Ahoghill / Drummaul parishes. It's from Thrift's Abstracts of the 1821 census. The page heading says Thrift's Abstracts, Bundle 21, 1821 Census Returns. Sorry, I can't find what film # it was. The page lists (1) piece number in ascending order, (2) Family, (3) Parish, (4) Townland (handwritten so sometimes hard to interpret) #4344, Arthur & Anne Martin, Rath or Rasheevin ?, Rugh..... ( I can't matchup this Par or Townland) Robert & Catherine Barr, Carnmoney, White Abbey Samuel & Jane Barr, Islandmagee, Bally(cronanmore?) I'm guessing Widow Barr, "" "" , Dundressen Alex'r & Eliz Barr, "" "" , Ballydown John & Mary Barr, Killead, Ballyclan John & Mary Barr, Antrim, Town of Antrim James & Sally Barr, Lower Kilbride, Lower Holestone Robert & Jean Barr, "" "" , Fifty Acres John & Jean Barr, "" "" ,Kilbride James & Jean Barr, "" "" , "" James & Agnes Barr, "" "" , "" Elizabeth Wilson, "" "" , "" James Barr, "" "" "" , "" John & Mary Barr, "" "" "" , "" William & Mary Barr, Templepatrick, Templepatrick #4360 Elizabeth Barr, Ballymartin, Ballyhartfield Margaret Barr, Carrickfergus, Town of Carrickfergus Samuel & Eliz Barr "" "" , "" "" Alexander & Mary Dempster, "" "" James Wilson, , "" "" John & Jenny Barr, , "" "" Jane Simon?, , "" "" Robert Lockhart , "" "" Elizabeth Barr, , "" "" Horace & Rachel Neeson, Drummaul, Feehoge James & Eliza Neeson, Connor, Tamlaghmore?

Hello, Is there a website which shows County Antrim parish maps with the names of the townlands? I am particularly interested in Carnmoney, Portglenone and Ahoghill parishes. I am researching the surnames Cochran, Crawford and Stewart. Thanks for your time. Alice Cochrane
