I'd just like to make a comment. My ancestors were part of a family-group of KERR and HENDERSON couples who left Ireland and migrated to Canada in 1823-1825. They were given land in Argenteuil Co., Province of Quebec, and moved to "the former Township of Gore," which is now the Lakefield and Lachute area. I will be posting a new query on this Board in a few minutes. Betty (near Lowell, MA, USA) Important Note: The author of this message may not be subscribed to this list.

Even though this was posted almost 10 years ago, I thought I would add a comment. Many people have been looking for many years for the parents of 2 brothers, William HENDERSON and Samuel HENDERSON, who were born in the early 1780's in Ireland. Researchers have believed for a long time that they were born in County Sligo. But, no one can find out who their parents were. Someone has suggested that they might have been born in County Tyrone, instead. So, I'm starting to find out about the HENDERSON families who were in that county in the late 1700's. William and Samuel were part of a family-group, including KERR couples, who migrated to Canada in 1823-1825. They got land in Argenteuil Co., Province of Quebec. I am descended from William and Mary (KERR) HENDERSON and Patrick and Elizabeth (KERR?) KERR through their children born in Canada in 1827.

In a recent posting by mistake I put in that Jane McCusker could have been the sister of Catherine McCusker. It should have been the NIECE of Catherine. The McCusker's were quite a clan during Griffiths living in that southwest quadrant of Agharonan, but if Catherine was as old as she was during the census and a widow to boot it would have been a stretch for her to have a little sister named Jane. Regards, Jim Carroll
Regarding a Jane McCusker that we found while searching ancestral backgrounds in County Tyrone, unfortunately the only reference was one that is contained in an Ulster Historical Foundation In Depth Search Report that I had done a number of years back. The report stated: "The one connection we have found is a McGarrity/McCusker one. The Jane McGarrity, aged ten in the 1911 census, living with Andrew Bogan's family was actually the daughter of a McCusker (sometimes reported as McCosker), not a McCarroll. Her parents were Thomas McGarrity and Jane McCusker of Augharon (sic)." I believe that should be Agharonan. And if you will do a little research don't forget to use the McCosker name as that was what it was in Griffith's. At that time there were two citations for McCusker (McCosker) in the townland of Agharonan: households numbered 34 and 35 (a) through (c). [It should be noted that the household numbers in Griffith's were not the addresses but the serially numbered leaseholds that were visited. For example, the Patrick McCosker's lived at location numbered 34 on the Griffith's map. When one looks at later ordnance survey maps they may find that the number changes because the number was only the indication that when he visited it was the 34th call in the townland.] There were no McGarrity's located in Agharonan when Griffith's did his survey, but there were a number that lived in surrounding townlands or areas. This leads to further speculation. The Jane McCusker of Augharon may have been the sister of Catherine. But we do lack proof, other than speculation. During the 1924 funeral of Michael Joseph McCarroll, late of Fintona and a native of Eskra (Corkhill) parish, attendees John McCusker of Legamaghery and Patrick Joseph McGarrity of Augharonon were listed as cousins to the deceased. Another reminder, make sure when you do your search that you use the various spellings of both the name and the location as they change over time, as we found out with Patrick McCosker, father of Catherine McCarroll (nee McCusker). In the Griffiths Valuation there was a paucity of McCuskers. It became very clear that most of the McCusker's of later years "started" out as a McCosker, at least according to Griffith.

These are exactly the correct people. I'm looking for the children of Edward and Maggie. I wrote to the Church in which they were married and they said there were no records for their children. I wrote to all the Catholic churches in the area and they either had no record of these children, or no records for early 1900s. I'm fairly certain the children were born in Tyrone and, IF they went back to Donegal, it wasn't until Ned went to Scotland. Is there an Irish civil listing for births in the early 1900s, rather than church records? Important Note: The author of this message may not be subscribed to this list.
