We just wanted to encourage you all to make use of this list in your family searches. A large number of Rootsweb lists have been made inactive due to no messages over a period of time. We want to keep as many lists active as we possibly can and your participation will help toward that goal. If you have a "brick wall" in your family search, send in a message with as much information as you have and let's see if someone may be able to help fill in those blanks. Best wishes, Jim and Di

Hi there, Diane list admin here. Is there anyone on this list that need any help with research from anybody? There hasn't been much going on with this list for a while! Hoping to hear from you soon. Diane list admin

This is a Message Board Post that is gatewayed to this mailing list. Classification: Query Message Board URL: http://boards.ancestry.com/mbexec/msg/an/zIC.2ACEAE/3.1.1.1 Message Board Post: The information I have is from the Roman Catholic register of baptisms in Ballymore (Tandragee) parish. Siblings from the marriage of James O'Hanlon and Elizabeth/ Betty Ann Mc Clinchy: John baptised 28 th October 1849 James baptised 18 th December 1853 Matthew baptised 10th December 1855 Elizabeth baptised 8th April 1861 (Sponsors/Godparents John O'Hanlon and Catherine O'Hanlon). Mary baptised 8th April 1861 (sponsors William (Mc) Geary and Sarah O'Toole). The record for Simon shows his parents as James O'Hanlon and Bridget Mc Clinchy, and Matthew as James O'Hanlon and Ann Clynchy see below: Simon baptised 8th May 1864 (Sponsors John O'Hanlon and Mary Mc Connell) Matthew baptised (2)6th June 1871 (Sponsors James Mc Connell and Margaret O'Toole It is possible that there are two familes here, but also possible that the first Matthew didn't survive infancy. The two girls Elizabeth and Mary used to visit Magherydougherty and Betty as she was known was married to Mullan or Mullen from Co. Down and could have lived in Belfast. There is no doubt that she was a sister of Matthew and Simon, so it is possible that James O'Hanlon married twice, and both time to Mc Clynchey. Simon went to USA while Matthew (2nd) not married had no issue and passed on in 1949. He was my mother's Godfather and a 2nd cousin of her father Felix O'Hanlon. I have been trying unsuccessfully to track Simon. He returned to Magherydougherty and had a dispute with his brother Matthew and left apparently to return to USA. Recently I have established from the New York City Census 1890 record, that there was a Simon O'Hanlon (born about 1864) in NY whose residence is not given. NY petitions for naturalization record (1920) shows a Simon Hanlon whose origin is given as England. It is possible that Simon went to England after leaving home for a second time. I have b! een unable to find any death or marriage records for him in my limited search of USA records. In recent times a granddaughter of the late Matt Mc Clinchey Magherydoughtery married John O'Hanlon Mullaghbrack. They live in England. The area where the Late Matt lived is shown on maps as Mc Clynchy's Corner and his family still live there. Matthew O'Hanlon, in his will, left his possessions (farm) to the RC Church who still are in possession of it. The Mc Connells who were related to this family appeared to have no sons. Their daughters married Morgan, Duffy and Mc Cartan and Hughes. The Morgans emigrated to USA: The O'Tooles have died out in the area. I got the information about Mc Clynchys/O'Hanlons from elderly residents from the area. I am giving a lecture in Scarva this coming week on Redmond O'Hanlon (1640 -?) who lived at Magherydougherty. His ggrandmother was O'Dougherty from Inis Owen (Donegal) and it is likely from this source that the area got its name. I hope this helps. Gerry.

Classification: Query Message Board URL: http://boards.ancestry.com/mbexec/msg/rw/zIC.2ACEAE/4.1 Message Board Post: Dear Sharyn, We have been in touch before and you were kind enough to lead me to Mary McLinchy (also spelled McClinchy and McGlinchey in other records. She did marry Daniel Melhare(Mulherin), my great grand father on Sept 11, 1860 in St. Gabriel's Roman Catholic Church, Hazelton, Pa. They had 12 children. Mary died on Dec. 11, 1903 and Daniel on June 13, 1908, both in Wilkes Barre, Pa. If you would like any information on their children, I would be happy to send it to you. Unfortunately, I do not have any further information about Mary except that according to the 1900 Federal Census she immigrated here in 1849 when she was 7 years old. I imagine because of her age she must have been accompanied by someone, but so far I have not been able to find her on any passenger lists. Good hunting. Mary P

This is a Message Board Post that is gatewayed to this mailing list. Surnames: McGlinchey Classification: Query Message Board URL: http://boards.ancestry.com/mbexec/msg/rw/zIC.2ACEAE/4 Message Board Post: an effort to break through my brick wall I am putting every scrap of McGlinchey information I find into a database. It will primarily concentrate on New Brunswick (Canada), Maine, and Northern Ireland, but I will keep all other information as well. I will share freely from this information with anyone who asks for specific information ("everything about any McGlinchey" won't get a response!). Most of my data comes from scanning microfilm, census data, cemetery and passenger list transcriptions, etc. However, I am asking that anyone who has any family by that surname (any spelling variation) to please send me (click on my name in this message to get current addy, or post here) anything you have to share. This is not a common name and is not hard to research *except* that there are so many spelling variations and two very distinct religious groups. I will not publish for profit any information sent to me or posted online that I can find. This is strictly a labor of love to honor my father's name. Regards, Sharyn (McGlinchey) Hay
