This will represents my first steps in trying to situate some of the Ballybay BROWNE connections to the rest of the family tree. Of interest, is another document that I will soon transcribe involving the sale of lands in Ednafirkin in 1880 relating to the estate of John Wallace McCULLAGH. It mentions a William and a James BROWN as tenants adjacent to the McCULLAGH holdings at Ednafirkin.

Here's a website that allows you to type in a townland and find it on a map. http://193.178.1.178/Monaghan_gPlan/ Googling "Gplan" and other counties' names may help you find similar sites. It works, at least, for Mayo and Sligo.

Magheracross is in northeast Fermanagh while Naghill is in Drumsnat parish in northwest Monaghan, not terribly near each other. Diane

Who might have a really good map which could tell me if Naghill in Monaghan is close to Magheracross in County Fermanagh. I've got two men both Lindsay's who share the exact DNA in my Lindsay surname project and one ancestor is supposed to be born in Negil (Naghill) Ireland and the other in Magheracross. Thanks.

Hello and greetings from Tasmania. I am searching for my 3xgreat grandparents John Murphy a farmer of Co Monaghan and his wife Catherine Crombie. Their daughter Anne Teresa Murphy was born Co Monaghan c 1836. She emigrated to Australia at age five so I am assuming her parents did as well! The only information I have comes from Anne's death certificate in Victoria, Australia so it isn't much to go on. Still no harm in trying! Happy to help with any queries in Tasmania.

Thanks, Maureen Corlealackagh is cheek by jowl with Lackagh about 14 miles from Glasslough according to multimap.com George could be one of mine since I seem to have 2 related lines in Monaghan. Do you by any chance have a John Farrell married to Anne (?) with a Daughter Mary born 1838?. All the documentation* I have for Mary Farrell is in Liverpool but it seems she had a connection to Monaghan since the inside covers of her son, John Matthew Gannon's, primers have Annyalla NS written inside them and John Matthew eventually married a Bridget Farrell from Cloghan. But I don't know if Mary Farrell's people were actually from there. She and her husband had been to the US, left under rather hurried circumstances and had reason to not wish to be easily located, or so the story suggests. *Mary's marriage cert.s to Matthew Guinane/Gannon (Sept. 1863 St Patrick's Liverpool & civil registration from PRO) has her father as John, clothier, deceased. and her mother as Anne Her death cert. from the PRO has her dying in 1888 at age 50.

Maureen: == Don't know what the geographic relation is between Corlealackagh and Lackagh townlands == Corlealackagh and Lackagh townlands are both located in Clontibret civil parish, and have a common border nearly a mile long. They are located 4 to 5 miles ENE of Ballybay town and 3 to 4 miles NW of Castleblaney town. Pete .............................................................................. ...

Thank you for posting the info on the Farrell - Marron marriage. I noted the witness Patrick Farrell, Lackagh. In checking my files I found some information on a George Farrell of Corlelackagh (died 20 Jan 1895, will probated 26 Feb 1896). His wife was listed in Calendar of Wills - Armagh Registry website as Jessie Helen (or Ellen) Walker. Also have 7 children listed for them (courtesy of Jack Storey). Don't know what the geographic relation is between Corlealackagh and Lackagh townlands as I am more familar with Donagh Parish where "my" Farrells lived, in The Crossroads & Glasslough areas.

I am looking for information on a John Beattie born c1848 in monaghan, fathers was William Beattie(farmer) do not know mothers name thanks Dave Beattie

The Griffith's index on failteromhat.com shows three William Beattys in Ematris parish and one in Clones. You might check the parish records. Diane

I have just finished uploading more headstones for Monaghan. The new headstones are in the following cemeteries: Donagh Old Graveyard Doohamlet Cemetery Inniskeen Cemetery Latlurcan Cemetery St. Mary's, Clontibret St. Michael's, Annyalla (R.C.) Tydavnet Parish (Ballinode Church) The ones contributed by Mary McNally have a lot of McNALLY grave markers. Donagh Old Cemetery has some neat old stones. Thanks again to our helpers. (Some of these do not have transcriptions so check with me if you can transcribe one. I didn't want to hold these back though. You can look through them pretty easily as there are just a few in each cemetery.) Christina Ireland Genealogy Projects Archives http://www.igp-web.com/IGPArchives/
