Is there anyone who could give me a helpful steer in the right direction on Monaghan research? My ancestor James Swann was born in 1760 in a place the family recalls as sounding like 'marnaharny'. The closest to that I've been able to come is Magheranaharney Townland in Monaghan. That there were Swanns there is pretty certain: that townland is quite near Swan's Crossroads. There are Swann land transactions there in the latter 1700's. There are few resources, it seems, to search. Is there something I might have overlooked that I can do from the U.S.? All suggestions gratefully considered! Anita Swann
