G'day Betsy, Well I hoped it would be Limavady, I know a branch off my tree came from there! My KENNEDYS and HENRYS (Margaret & William) were cousins who married my Grandfather and his sister JAMES McCAIG & AGNES McCAIG, the McCaigs originally from Co.Down moved to Lanarkshire, Scotland and showed up in the 1851 census for Old Monkland, Lanarkshire, Scotland. They moved back & forward looking for work and this is how they met their future spouses. My HENRYS are also related to the YOUNGS from Derry county. regards, Elizabeth. researching: > > KENNEDY.YOUNG.HENRY. Co.Derry > > McKAIG.KELLY.LYLE.BRANAN.TURNER.CLARK.

Hi, I hope it is not too late to ask for a lookup of this census please. The name I am looking for is Eliza Moore - and I have no other information except that she was from Derry. There may be heaps of them - sorry. Leonie

snip I was going to direct you to the National Archives in Kew where military records are held but I see form the catalogue you have found this info in the catalogue http://catalogue.pro.gov.uk WO97 is the discharge record and if you can access that it should give you more information. There is a Glenone in Tamlaght O Crilly but my instnct is that is Killowen, a parish near Coleraine.

Thanks for checking on the 1871 Derry Almanac and letting me know it is back in stock. Since my ancestors were farmers, I guess they wouldn't be in it anyway! Susi Godfrey

Artillary drivers would be drivers in the Royal Artillary. Depending on what "age" we are talking about, they were either the team drivers who drove the horse team pulling the guns or limbers, or in more mdern times they might drive the self propelled guns now used, or howitzers towed by jeeps, or a driver of any vehicle belonging to the Artillary.

In that time period, the only way to move artillery was by either horse or oxen teams -- thus artillery driver was the expert who drove the teams, and moved the field gun to positions where they were useful.

Jacqui -- Think you misunderstood a message -- I did not offer to do lookups, simply because I travel quite a bit, and people get impatient when I don't respond in a short time! However, I do have CD#197, so thought I'd try to do the lookup. I find the disc very frustrating to use, partly because each entry refers to a microfilm page -- but nowhere on the disc, in the help files or elsewhere, can I find a reference or explanation for what microfilm they refer to, or where one might obtain that microfilm. Perhaps someone on the list can enlighten us both! Having said all that, I looked up the Brolly names you mentioned in the 1831 Londonderry census. Here's what I fould: Name Parish Microfilm Brolly, John Ahanloo p.001 Brolly, John Faughanvale Parish #2 p.013 Brolly, John Foughinvale p.013 Brolly, John Lower Cumber p.021 Brolly, John Lower Cumber Parish p.021 Brolly, John Lower Cumber p.037 Brolly, Margaret Upper Cumber p.011 Brolly, Margaret Upper Cumber Parish p.011 Brolly, Michael Upper Cumber Parish p.054 Brolly, Michael Upper Cumber Parish p.059 Hope this minimal bit of information helps. Somewhere online there may be guides to where these parishes are, but I don't know. Good luck! Dave Bartholomew [email protected]

Recently, I found a William PAUL listed as having served with the Royal Artillery Drivers from 1808-1818. He was listed as being born in Gillone, Londonderry. I haven't been able to locate this on a map. Has anyone heard of Gillone? Also, would anyone with military knowledge know what artillery drivers are?

Hi I contacted the site and apparently they removed it off the list when they sold out - but he also had new stock in today so its back on the list - just type in 1871 and it brings it up.

I would like to request a lookup from the 1831 census index. I am researching the PAUL family from County Derry and the Coleraine area.(sorry, I don't know if this refers to the city or the parish). Thank you for your time and consideration.
