Checked both by names and date and nothing appears. However, many people did not put notices in the papers at that time. The Londonderry Sentinel, certainly at that time, covers a wide area from Derry (Donegal, Sligo, Tyrone, north Londonderry). The surname Witherow is quite common around Auglish, Feeny. ----- Original Message ----- From: "Christine Tregonning" <CJTregonning@xtra.co.nz> To: <> Sent: Friday, April 27, 2007 3:19 AM Subject: Re: [NIR-DERRY] Londonderry Sentinel > Thank you Linda for this information. > > You have probably been inundated with requests.

Linda, You must be very busy looking up everybody's requests in the CD. Could you possible look up a couple for me. He is my ggg grandfather and I would really like to know his birth date and confirmation of his parents, so I can move further back. The man in question is Andrew Marshall, born about 1845 - 1855, more than likely in Drung, Donegal. His father was Robert Marshall - which is a common family name. I believe that the birth could be registered in the Sentinal, as when Andrew got married in 1874 to Margaret Reid, they did so in the Strand Road Presbyterian Church - even though both were from Donegal. Your assistance would be most appreciated. Susan _________________________________________________________________ Solve the Conspiracy and win fantastic prizes. http://www.theconspiracygame.co.uk/
I didn't find Andrew Marshall's birth but there are apparently gaps in 1855 although I doubt it would have been in the paper at all. There are 18,700 deaths & 9,900 marriages but only 6,800 births in the paper- usually only the gentry or professional people put birth notices in a newspaper. The only marriage for a Robert Marshall that might fit is in 1843- Robert Marshall of Tubber to Margaret Stevenson. ----- Original Message ----- From: "Susan Marshall" <susan_e_marshall@hotmail.com> To: <> Sent: Friday, April 27, 2007 1:02 PM Subject: Re: [NIR-DERRY] Londonderry Sentinel - Marshall > Linda, > > You must be very busy looking up everybody's requests in the CD. > > Could you possible look up a couple for me.

Thank you for looking. I am not sure of the Witherow connection but the facts seem to fit. I am just looking for that little piece of information that may provide confirmation.
