I am researching an indirect line of Cobain/ Cobane/Cobean families. John COBAIN of Skey married Maria STEPHENSON of Cavankilgeen in 1821 at Aughnacloy Pres. church. John's father is believed to be James. John also had a sister Ann who married James FALLS in 1822. Associated families include FALLS, IRWIN, McCALL, MILLAR. John, Maria and their family migrated to Victoria, Australia in 1851. Several of the other families (or their children) followed. I don't see a connection to your family but it might give a clue to an area of research in Tyrone. Skey and Cavankilgreen lie about 5km south-east of Ballygawley toward Aughnacloy. Good luck with your research. ------------------------------------- Barry Graham Melbourne, Australia
