Good evening, everyone. I am desperately trying to find my gg and ggg-grandfathers with no luck as of yet and I'm running out of direction. I'm not very familiar with how to research in Ireland (Monaghan likely) and could use some pointers. My gg-grandfather, Anthony WRIGHT (may have been born Andrew) was born in Monaghan (town not known specifically) in 1822 or 1823 to George WRIGHT and Mary (Mary Ann) Madill (also seen spelled McDill). I cannot find any info on the LDS web site for anything on George and Mary nor Anthony. Anthony married Ann MADILL (cousin perhaps) in 1842 or 1843. At some point, they moved to Lanark, Scotland. Ann later died of stomach cancer and Anthony remarried in 1861. Ann's parents were Matthew MADILL (farmer) and Mary DEVLIN. George was listed as a (small) farmer. This isn't as easy as researching in Scotland. I know most census info no longer exists. How can I track down Anthony based on this info? Is anyone on these lists researching any of the above persons? I've been researching my ancestors for several years now and have run to an absolute dead end on my own direct Wrights!! I have info on the rest of my ancestors back to the 1500's, but my own direct family ends in Ireland in 1823 with no answers. Any recommendations on how I can pursue this further and find my ancestors? Sorry to sound desperate, but this is frustrating not knowing! Thanks so very much for any assistance! Take care.
