Hello Anita, Like so many times, I do not have an answeer for you, but perhaps you can help me, if you will. Where did you find the land records for Monaghan? I need about the same time period as you do. If you family was Protestant, there is a Cahans Project but I haven;t found lists, Lots came to New York with Rev. Thomas Clark in 1764-5. Then there is a spinning wheel list somewhere, but I don't know where. I picked these things up on this Monaghan site. Perhaps we can help each other. I want to go further on the Cahans Project right now. My family is Flack.

Hi Marie, There were three listings for FLACK on the "Flax Growers List" a/k/a "Spinning Wheel List" for Co. Monaghan in 1796.
