William Wright died October 1878 Hockley Armagh. I have his death record but am interested in finding out which Cemetery he is buried in and if possible, details on his headstone. Any help will be greatly appreciated. Thanks Carol [email protected]

I just found two possible brith records for my Grandmother's two sisters in Carrickasticken, Forkhill Civil District. Of course, the record doesn't list the parents. Does anyone know what Catholic church I should write to regarding baptismal records? Thank you, Maureen Sausen Lincoln, California

There seems to have been a connection to Tartaraghen because at least two of Robert and Dorahs children seem to have been born at Tartaraghen. Theri son Robert married a Sarah Askin(s) and had a daughter called Dorothy in 1912 but his younger brother George (my gf) married Matrtha cordner in 1915 and also had a daughter claaed Dorothy who was my aunt Important Note: The author of this message may not be subscribed to this list.

Hi Jean, Yes, with all the Marys and Henrys and Mccanns it's hard to tell who is who and who belongs to who. Most of the documents I have don't have ages on them so you don't know if you have the right person. Very frustrating.

My Great Grandfather, Henry McCann was married and widowed before he married my Great Grandmother Mary Carroll. His first wife's name was also Mary. She died in Carrickasticken at the age of 50 on January 27th, 1870. Does anyone have any information on the first Mary McCann? Marriage date? Any children?

Maureen: Have you considered the possibility that your grandmother and her two sisters may have been British Home Children? In Canada, descendants have been searching for their British relations, as 100,000 children (usually poor, in orphanges or workhouses) were sent here between 1868 -1948. This year has been designated Year of the British Home Children by our Canadian parliament, in recognition of the courage these children faced when sent to a struggling, harsh, mostly rural, pioneering Canada. You have probably read about that period of history as about a month ago, both Australia and Britain apologized for their part in this "expedient, opportunistic, misguided & flawed emigration to the colonies." Professor M. McNay, U of Western Ontario. Some children also went to the USA. Please contact [email protected] if you believe this emigration scheme might apply to your relatives. Thank you. Helen Query: Is there an orphanage in County Armagh? Supposedly, my Grandmother and her two sisters were temporarily put to an orphanage after their Father died and their Mother had to find work. This ould have been between 1883 and 1889. Thanks, Maureen Sausen Lincoln, Califonia
