Ancestry now has online Liverpool parish register entries, at least Anglican and Catholic, not sure about non conformist. So, if any Irish born are recorded at Liverpool in English censuses, you may find their subsequent marriages, deaths or children. Bill _____ No virus found in this message.

Hugh is listed in Griffiths Valuation living in Kilmore townland,Shankill Parish Lurgan (near Aghagallon).He died in Kilmore Oct 1875 and buried in Dougher Cemetery, Lurgan. I cannot find a marriage for Hugh but he did have a daughter Elizabeth b1850, Kilmore and baptised in St Peter's RC Church Lurgan. Mother's name was Margaret Devlin-nothing else known about Margaret. Elizabeth married Hugh McLernon (1872)in Lurgan and moved to England shortly after. A Rose McVeigh was witness to the wedding. Are any of these people in your McVeigh family tree?

Hello Alison PRONI reopened at the beginning of April.
