Hello Everyone: I would like to research the Parish Records for Clones, Monaghan, Ireland for the period 1795-1820. Can anyone tell me if these records are available on microfiche, and can they be purchased? Also, it would appear that the only Church during that period would have been the Church of Ireland. Can anyone confirm that fact? Thanks in advance..... Dennis Galley, Port Elgin, Ontario, Canada.

Yes , thank you very much. I'm sure she is related but until I can find some more details on John Short and his family, I cant connect yet. I have been trawling through the RC church records for Co Longford at the local LDS library. I order the film 4-5 months ago and so far I have found the burial of Samuel Healy who is Mays father in Ph Edgesworthtown (now Mostrim). Cant sight her birth or the her parents marriage yet.... I haven't found Judith or Catherine Short in OZ so far. What would the 'Corerreagh' mean?

Hi Paula: My gr.grandmother, Henrietta Lindsay JOHNSTON, was born in Co. Monaghan about 1845 (got this info from the 1911 census in Armagh) Father was Walter Porter JOHNSTON. Possibly had a brother called Edwin Wyndham JOHNSTON. They were not Catholic but Presb. or Church of Ireland. I have been unable to locate a birth for Henrietta or a marriage for her parents (do not know mother's name). Do you think your book would help me out? If so, please let me know the cost to send to British Columbia, Canada.

Dear Carol, I haven't...but that doesn't mean very much. All I've got is Robert Oliver McCoy b. 1833 s/o Alexander McCoy and Mary Oliver. Alexander was a banker. Robert was a teacher. That's it....my book on McCoy. Alice is of an age to be connected somehow....but I don't know....much of anything... Thanks for writing... Georgia

Please forgive me if this seems redundant... I've missed the original postings on the history of Monaghan... I would be interested in knowing if my McCoy family or Oliver family is listed in the index and would also like to know if it is available for purchase... Thanks, Georgia

My Ferrin and Connolly relatives are from Monaghan -but i don't know where in Monahan. Would be interested in your history. What is cost? susan in Massachusetts msuffda@aol.com

Hi Have you by chance noticed a John Short born abt 1839 Monaghan (maybe town) son of John Short & Elizabeth ? On arrival in Oz in 1863, with new wife, Mary Hely (from Co Longford), he stated his trade to be a Cordwainer(Bootmaker). Maybe his father taught him this trade. I keep asking cause somebody sometime might just come acress them!

I am seeking information regarding my g/grandparents and family. Joseph Archibald married Ann Jane Lundy at the Presbyterian Church, Corvalley, County of Monaghan, February, 1873. Ann Jane was the daughter of Richard Lundy and Lydia Mitchell; Joseph the son of George Archibald. Their children (in order of birth) Lydia, Joseph, George, Charles, John, Leticia, Christina, Arnold, David, Samuel. Here's hoping that someone may have some knowledge of this family David Granger South Australia

Have you gotten the marriage record from the civil registry? They are indexed each year and available on microfilm from LDS. Once you have the liber and page you can get the actual record which will include spouses ages, number of marriage, occupation, townland, father's name, father's occupation as well as church and type of service and person performing the marriage. Well worth the effort if you don't already have this info. Joan granger wrote: > I am seeking information regarding my g/grandparents and family.

Hi, I am interested to know more about this local history book, where is it available from? My grandparents were born in Co. Monaghan, but I am having difficulties where. My grandmother was Hannah Kells, her father was William Kells and Jane? Any ideas of where I should look next. Thanks a lot Flo

Is this anywhere near Ballybay? If so, I would be interested in a copy. Sam

I can't remember if I have already posted this information. Here it goes again.

Thank you for your posting. All I know about my BEATTY GRAHAM is that he was born in Monaghan and was supposed to have married ANN MC SHAY (SHEA) in the same place. Do you have any of that surname in your graveyards? Evelyn in Oceanside, California.
