Well said Ann, they must have lived close to mine so. Geographically Cootehill is/was the nearest registry office and so that is where they went to register the birth. County lines/townlands etc are just lines on maps. Obviously you look for nearest church first... also the most convenient/nearest registry office, even if in next county. Why some people chose to pass 2 or 3 churches and travel to Monaghan can be a mystery, sometime you get reasons, other times it remains a mystery. Another thing to take into consideration is that parishes frequently "swapped" townlands, so a townland would be in one parish at some stage, next day it could be in another and so too would the parishioners. It's even more complicated today as some churches are almost closed and some alternate services between them, so one attends this church next Sunday, then another church the following Sunday, and possibly a different church the following Sunday. Oh, the joys....

Was just preparing stuff in preparations for doing research for someone in Co. Monaghan. On the back of 1821 census abstracts I decided to pull this stuff from First Monaghan Pres. Church in 1821. Apart from Monaghan Parish some people travelled from the following 4 PARISHES and townlands into Monaghan town to attend this church. I know one person who actually lived within a 100 yards of their local church in Donagh but yet they travelled into Monaghan town which was quite a reasonable distance in those days esp with 6 kids...(It would be far enough today with 6 kids!!). Here's the 4 Parishes and townlands; TEDAVNET; Aghaboy, Clonkeady, Coolkill East, Creesil, Crosses, Drumbenagh, Drumbier, Drumcoo, Drumlara, Drumshanny, Glassdrumman, Killycreen, Killydonnelly, Legacurry, Lemaculla, Milltown, Mullyera, Newgrove, Raconnel, Rafeenan, Rosefield, Sheetrim, Tate, Tattygare, Telaydan, The Point, Tullycroman, Tullygony, Tullyvogy DONAGH; Billis, Cloghnart, Coraghduff, Drumgeeny, Eden Island, Kilnadreen, Lisboy, Straghan, Tirnaneill KILMORE; Aughnamallagh, Cornaclare, Darraghlan, Drumaclan, Drumgarve, Kilnaclay, Tirmadown TYHOLLAND; Corbeg, Corvally, Drumgoole, Terrycaffe, Tullynanure So while someone may have lived E.G. in Donagh, it doesn't mean they attended church in that parish. So if you can't find someone who lived in a certain townland in their "expected" parish church they may have travelled elsewhere too, regardless of religion. Townlands and parishes are only good indicators of where to start looking but as the above list clearly shows they are just indicators! I don't have 2nd Monaghan Pres. Church (Ballyalbany) done yet but expect it would be quite similar. If you can't find yours where they should be then look elsewhere....it wasn't illegal to attend a different parish or church then or now. I did research for someone else whose family lived in Co. Monaghan but they couldn't find them, they lived near Monaghan/Cavan border and actually attended church in Co. Cavan. The family couldn't find them because they only looked in Co. Monaghan for them. Hope the above might be useful to someone!

If you search at: http://www.askaboutireland.ie/griffith-valuation/index.xml You will find many McEntee families during the 1858-1860 period. Most stayed in the same area for generations. The Tithe Applotment records are an earlier resource. Think they are only found in Ireland, except for those transcribed for online resourcing. For Monaghan: http://www.connorsgenealogy.com/new2010.html Errigal, http://www.connorsgenealogy.com/Monaghan/ErrigalTroughTithes-A.htm and Currin, Aghabog, and Clontibret parishes for County Monaghan also available.

There are a few in the new g/yard too from Tullygoney/Mullyera/Aughagally/Aghaboy/Derrydoraghor/Drumcoobrady also a McAree/Sherry of Tonyclea, so you'd need a townland for yours. You'd need death cert. for James to get his father's name, possibly townland. Plots 206/ 207/ 207(a)/ 257/ 326/ 301/ 286/ 268/ 353/ 373/ 191/ 57/ 116, then they might not even be yours!

Hi fellow listers, I have hit a real solid brick wall, Arrghh!! (searching 7 years now) trying to find the origins of my ancestor Michael Quigley born c1790 and his wife Mary Cassidy in County Monaghan. (I want to visit my ancestral homeland) Michael & Mary's son John Quigley and family left County Monaghan around 1860-75. John Quigley was born c1816 (R.C) and married to Ellen Ward born 1823. (John & Ellen died in Govan, Lanarkshire in 1881 & 1883) Ellen's parents where Bernard Ward and Bridget McQuillan. John and Ellen had at least 5 children all born in County Monaghan (source of this is the 1891 census of the family in Govan) The children are: James born c1850, Catherine Ann born c1852, Edward born 1855, John born 1861 and Bridget born bet. 1858-1863 The family settled here in Govan, Lanarkshire, Scotland the earliest record of the family in Scotland is the 1876 marriage of James to Ellen Furrey in Govan. James and Sister Catherine Ann died in Govan (Catherine Ann married Daniel Lynagh in Govan 1888). One of my dilemmas is that I have been unable to find out what happened to the other siblings John, Edward and Bridget. John and Edward disappear after appearing on the 1881 census in Govan (can find no marriage or death in Scotland) Bridget married Charles Shannon in Govan in 1895 and appears with Charles on the 1901 census in Govan but I can find no death for her or Charles in Scotland. (Maybe John and Edward moved on after the death of their mother and father) I cannot pinpoint where in Co. Monaghan the family originated (faint family memories of a mention of Killeevan), I have been to Ireland to search for the family, however as recording of BDMs in Ireland of Catholics did not begin until 1864 as a result I can find no birth entries for John's children or death for Michael Quigley and Mary Cassidy. As Catholic Parish records for Killeevan do not exist before 1871 I am at a loss what to do now. I have found a Michael Quigley and a John Quigley living in the same Townland of Crossreagh in Killeevan on the Griffiths Valuation Of Ireland in 1861 but there are other Michaels in Co. Monaghan on the Grifiths too. In the Clogher Record, Vol. 11, No. 1 (1982), pp. 119-149 "Graveyard Inscriptions Killeevan and Aghabog" there is an inscription which reads: "Erected by Michael Quigley, Crossreagh, in memory of his wife Mary who died May 1855." I think it is in St Livinus RC graveyard in Killeevan. (could this be my Michael Quigley & Mary Cassidy and the Michael from the Grifiths at Crossreagh) After countless years of web searches I have never found anyone who is also researching the same family, I am now really stuck on how to proceed with my research. Any help or advice of any type would be greatly appreciated. Colin Quigley Glasgow [email protected] http://www.quigs.co.uk/quigley/m_quig1798.html

The Griffith's index seems to bear out the family Killeevan memories, as the majority of Quigley entries are for that parish, and there are also Cassidys, Wards, and McQuillans there. I didn't find Michael's death in the civil death index, but there are some possibilities for Mary (Cassidy) Quigley (born before 1801 if son born in 1816): 2 in Clones district (1783-1869 and 1795-1866), 2 in Castleblaney (1786-1879 and 1800-1897), and 1 in Dundalk (1792-1874). Killeevan is in Clones district, so you might get those death records. You couldn't prove she was your Mary, but if a widow in Killeevan, that might be another hint. You could do the same with Bridget (McQuillan) Ward, born before 1808, hopefully died after 1863. Diane

Re: local gravestones(Scotstown) .........Feebaghbane ones there. The area was certainly full of McKennas! ------------------- Ciaran, Elaine, I didn't think of looking at the headstones. Here's one I have Patrick McKenna, Feebabane, d. 3 Dec 1952 age 84, his wife Mary d. 29 Jun 1964 age 82 their son Toal d. 20 March 1994 age 78 their son Charlie d. 29 Oct 1996 age 73 and one more that I can't read because the flowers are in the way. If you would like the photograph let me know off line. James

Hello all - Hope you're well. I know this is probably a daft question but does anyone happen to have any photographs (or know if any exist) of Tydavnet (particularly Feebaghbane) in the mid to late 19th Century? Elaine McKenna.

Elaine, I see you´ve made contact with Sean, I was going to email him as I knew he had a Cassley in his tree somewhere back. I think James got to Sean first, great to see there is a link. I tried searching for photos of  gravestones I KNOW I took of some local gravestones(Scotstown) but I can´t seem to find where i put them on my computer. Will strive to find them and see if there are any Feebaghbane ones there. The area was certainly full of McKennas! Ciaran

Not everyone attended their local church. Just been looking at the townlands they lived in, from 1821 census for those who attended 1st Monaghan Pres. Church. Many travelled miles and passed churches en route. On 16/08/2010 08:00, [email protected] wrote: > Today's Topics: > > 1. Re: IRL-MONAGHAN Digest, Vol 5, Issue 98 (Dave Hall) > 2.

Lynne If you contact the NLI via website and just quote Ms.169, pp.132-3 (plus the Title/Person's name) they should be able to photocopy and mail a copy to you. It may or may not have been filmed. I was in there last Monday and my Ms had not been filmed so I'd have needed to get Reader's Card etc to enter library itself and read the original document, didn't have time so they told me they would photocopy the original and post it. The charge for this was €25.00. Timescale 10 working days.

In trying to find the parents of my ancestor Elizabeth Pogue who married John Cairnes, I have found a few records that apply to other Pogues. One is the marriage of John Pogue to Margaret Fee or McCullagh in 1860 in Monaghan. Happy to pass this on to someone to whom it might belong! Rosemary
