I am seeking help in obtaining information about an extended family that arrived in Montrose, Scotland between 1841 (census) and 1844 (marriage of one of them). The principal family name is McMURRAY. They are shown as being Irish born. One is shown as being from Armagh. William McMurray b. abt 1775, in Ireland, married Rebecca Smylie b. abt 1777, in Ireland. Her death certificate Montrose Mar. 23, 1859 indicates her father as Hugh Smylie (Ireland). A son, believed to be their youngest, Thomas McMurray, b. abt 1822 in Ireland (this is the one married in 1844 in Montrose, to a Scot). Another son, Robert McMurray, b. about 1815 in Ireland appears in the 1851 Montrose census. He appears with wife, Agnes, b. abt. 1816, in Ireland, and three children, William McMurray (age 16, b. abt 1835), Rebecca McMurray ( age 14, b. abt 1837), and Margaret McMurray (age 12, b. abt 1839) - all indicated as born in Ireland. Also appearing in the 1851 census is a sister-in-law (to the family head) Jane Robertson (?) age 16, also born in Ireland. . This would be a sister of Agnes, whose maiden name would be the same. The census taker's writing is excellent except for the surname of the sister-in-law - Robertson is best guess. I have tried the basic LDS resources, and I would very much appreciate any help or guidance that anyone can offer. Thomas is my wife's g-grandfather. A hopeful thank you in advance. Mac Carpenter Victoria, BC, Canada

Thank you to all responded about old townland names and modern road names. I believe Kilmacanty must indeed be the modern form for Kilmackenny. My ancestor's sister is shown as christened at Clonroot and there is a Clonroot Rd. close to Kilmacanty Rd. _________________________________________________________________ Play free games, earn tickets, get cool prizes!

Hi all I have recently "discovered" that the Cole's home in the early 1800's was "Mulla Drai", near Portadown, County Armagh, Northern Ireland. Henry Cole was born in Portadown in 1849 & his son Joseph in 1873. The mother was Mary Jane Gillespie. The family emigrated to the Cape Colony (Kingwilliamstown) in about 1875. Can anyone comment?

You can also get a free copy of the Ordnance Survey map from the Library of Congress. Go to: http://www.loc.gov/rr/askalib/ask-geogmap2.html and ask if a copy of the earliest Ordnance Survey Map Sheet No. 9 containing the townland Kilmacanty in Kilmore Parish, County Armagh, can be made for you.

Hi, Kilmacanty is a townland of 125 acres in the parish of Civil Kilmore. http://www.proni.gov.uk/geogindx/parishes/par185.htm You need an ordnance survey map to find this townland. This is a discoverer series map and covers an area 40km by 30km. Google discoverer maps and see where you can buy one. They're under $20.

Thank you to Alison Kilpatrick for the following reply on 20 May. I have since twice visited the PRONI website and clicked on their "Contact Us" link to simply enquire if records exist for this parish at that time. So far no response. Does PRONI respond to such requests or should I approach them in a different manner? If I find the parish recirds exist, I can then proceed to a more formal application. Theior listing for DRUMCREE reads: Drumcree Armagh Armagh MIC/1/21,42 & 43 but this does not reveal what periods or what events (births, marriages, deaths?) these microfilms cover.

Hello Connie- I went on the Seanruad.com website and checked for anything that might be close to your Kilmackenny and here is what I found: ( the first field is townland, the second is Number of acres, the third is County, fourth is barony, fifth is civil parish, sixth is Poor law union, seventh is Province. Your Kilmacanty road must be where the townland is or was. I have a new-found cousin in Lurgan and she is helping me with information about our Markey family. Our family came from the townland of Drumnahuncheon in Loughgilly, County Armagh. I asked her about Drumnahuncheon and the correct spelling of it as I had also seen it spelled "Drumnahunshin", and here is what she said ( and I quote her) "We always thought the correct spelling of the townland was Drumnahuncheon. A number of years ago the townlands were shelved in favour of road names and numbers. Our address became 102 Tullyah Road. A lot of people continued to use the townland as their address in protest but it eventually became the norn to use the new address. In the old days the postman knew everyone and was able to deliver the post without a problem but now there could be a different postman every week and he wouldn't have a clue who was who. It was also better when there was more than one person of the same name in the same townland. Then they would have been known by a nickname." I would wager that you have the same case with your Kilmackenny! I hope this helps you!

This is in reply to BarbaraFreeburn51. Sorry, I cannot get into ancestry.com to reply the correct way. This is my genealogical information as far back as I know it: ? Hart(b. Ireland, d. Ireland) m. ? (b. Ireland, d. Ireland). They had 3 children: 1. Samuel Hart (b. abt. 1815, b. "north of Ireland, near Belfast, in Ulster", d.abt. 1866 in Bishop's Mills, Wolford Twp., Grenville County, Ontario, Canada. He married Rebecca Kelly (b. about 1814, possibly in Co. Armagh, d. March 19, 1895 in Bishop's Mills, Wolford Twp., Grenville County, Ontario, Canada. They married March 15, 1840 in Clare Presbyterian Church, Co. Armagh, Ireland. These are my ancestors. 2. John Hart (b. July 13, 1877). 3. Martha Jane Hart (b. 1844, d. 1904, m. Robert Langtry in same Clare church, then emigrated to Canada. 4. James Hart (b. January 6, 1843, d. September 6, 1908 in Merrickville town, Grenville Co., Ontario, Canada (near to Bishop's Mills). 5. Nancy Hart (b. 1848, d. 1923 in Bishop's Mills, m. Henry Bigford 6. Jane Hart 7. Robert Hart (possibly one of these children) 8. Violet Hart (also possibly one of these children. There is some family vague memory that they might have been half-siblings to the previous 6 children.) 9. Maurice Hart (b. December 25, 2840, "Easton's Corners", Wolford Twp., Ontario, Canada, d. September 7, 1920 at age 87 in Bishop's Mills. The first child, above, Samuel Hart m. Rebecca Kelly March 15, 1840 in Clare Presbyterian Church in Co. Armagh. She was the daughter of James Kelly and Jane ?. They emigrated to Canada soon after their marriage (perhaps 1835?, perhaps 1840) and they had several children: 1. James Hart, b. 1843, d. September 6, 1906 at the age of 65 yrs, 8 months.' 2. Martha Jane Hart, b. 1844, d. 1904) 2. Samuel Hart, Jr. 3. Anna Bella Hart, b. abt. 1853, m. John Henry Bradford. Nickname Isabella 4. John Hart, b. about 1856. 5. Maurice Hart, b. December 25, 1840, m. Catherine Minish, d. September 7, 1928, Bishop's Mills, Ontario, Canada. Their 5th child, above, Maurice Hart, married the girl on the next farm in Bishop's Mills. Her name was Catherine Minish (b. abt. 1845 in Canada). They married on May 3, 1866 in Ogdensburgh, New York. Her parents were Jams Minish and Elizabeth Moore. Catherine d. March 26, 1911 at the age of 66 years. Maurice and Catherine Hart had these children: 1. Samuel Hart (b. February 11, 1868, d. December 2, 1943) 2. David Lorenzo Hart (b. March 28, 1970, d. March 12, 1908. Nickname Ren. 3. Margaret Hart (b. December 20, 1872, never married, studied nursing in New Britain Connecticut, US, then returned to Bishop's Mills. 4. Ella Hart (b. July 13, 1875, d. September 3, 1959. 5. Charles Merrrill Hart 6. Eli Maurice (Morris) Hart (b. March 25, 1879, d. March 1963 at the age of 88 in Erie, Pennsylvania, US. 7. Agnys Jane "Nancy" Hart (b. October 12, 1881, d. 1963). 8. Elizabeth Rubena Hart (b. November 9, 1883, d. April 17, 1884 at the age of 2 years and 5 months 8 days.) 9. Archibald "Albert" Arthur Hart (b. January 24, 1885, d. December 16, 1953 in western US) Eli Hart, no. 6 above, was my grandfather. He emigrated to Hartford, Connecticut, US, met and married Carrie Kelsey Bliss. They had two children: 1. Merrill Bliss Hart (b. August 29, 1910, New York, US. d. 1969 at the age of 59. 2. Lauren Watson Hart (b. November 20, 1914, Connecticut. D. August 7, 1992, Balsta, Sweden. Lauren was my father. Sorry to bore you with all this. I know very little of my ancestors who were born in Ireland, as you can tell. There was a family memory of "Cavan" but I never found any Harts in Co. Cavan. Then I learned there is a Cavan Townland, Kilmore Parish, in Co. Armagh. Since Rebecca Kelly's family church was in Clare, Co. Armagh, I started to look for Harts in Co. Armagh. I have found many Harts there and believe this must be the right place, though I have no proof. I would dearly love to know the parents and siblings of (no. 1, above) Samuel Hart, and of course his grandparents, etc. Do any of these names mean anything to you? It would be wonderful to find a connection.

I will be visiting County Armagh in July. An LDS record shows the birthplace of my ancestors as Kilmackenny, Kilmore, Armagh. I know that Kilmore is the parish but have never found anything about Kilmackenny. I have found a Kilmacanty Road in Kilmore parish but don't know exactly where that is either. Is anyone familiar with these places? Thank you. _________________________________________________________________ Hotmail to go? Get your Hotmail, news, sports and much more!

A 1899 letter from Margaret Jennings has her address as 40 Barrack St in Belfast. Some of the letters mention the names of cousins. I'm still trying to make some order of it all.

I think my Jennings ancestors were flax farmers also. In a 1868 letter from Patrick Jennings (Co Armagh) to his brother William Jennings (USA) Patrick writes that it was very dry summer causing 'short corn, short flax and small potatoes' and mentions the cost of cut flour and cut oatmeal. In a 1872 letter he tells William they bought a 'farm of land' for 745 pounds. I do believe the family was Catholic. I don't know how to follow-up on any of this information. I don't have birth/death dates - only bits of information found in the letters. Any instructions are greatly appreciated.

Author: Nicola564 Surnames: JENNINGS Classification: queries Message Board URL: http://boards.rootsweb.com/localities.britisles.ireland.arm.general/9321.1/mb.ashx Message Board Post: I am researching the Jennings families of County Down and County Armagh - that triangle between Armagh, Newry and Dundalk. My family came from Newry, and I have traced them back to a Charles Jennings c. 1750 in Killevy. I am also researching the family of Patrick Alfred Jennings (Premier of NSW) who came from Newry. Patrick's grandfather/greatgrandfather was Robert Jennings who I believe may have been a Flaxgrower and I have found a reference to him in the National Archives which suggests he could have been Flemish in origin. The names Robert, Patrick, John,Mary and Margaret all appear in his family, like yours. My recurring family names are Daniel, Andrew and Charles. Both families were Catholics. I have never come across any reference to Derlett or Mountnorris before so I am very interested! Researching my family has been quite difficult, and I have lots of random notes, so I will have a look to see if I have anything more of use to you, and come back to you with it,but I wouldn't be too hopeful! best wishes, Nicola Jennings Important Note: The author of this message may not be subscribed to this list.
