Surnames: Taggart Classification: Query Message Board URL: http://boards.ancestry.com/mbexec/msg/rw/INB.2ACE/1452.2 Message Board Post: I am not actually on this mailing list so wonder if you could reply to my email address direct [email protected] My great grandmother's name was Martha Taggart, b 1862. She had a sister Catherine b 1860 and I think a brother William George. Her father's name was David. I wouldn't have connected this with Donegaore but I had an e,mail exchange with a lady in Belfast via Genes Reunited who said that she was descended from a Catherine Taggart and her grandfather was illegitimate. The family had come from Donegore but had moved to the Shankill/Crumlin Road area of Belfast. I haven't been avble to establish a connection but there is certainly circumstantial evidence. The Genes Reunited woman said her grandfather was born in 1875 which would have made Catherine very young but that doesn't make it impossible. Catherine didn't marry. She was living with my g grandmother in the 1901 Census. David Taggart was a warehouse manager. Does any of this ring any bells. I can get you the contact of the lady in Belfast. David Quinn
