I sent away last year and have a copy of my great grandparents marriage cert.Andrew Mcollum and Sarah McFarland were married on the 19th Feb 1888 at the Mountjoy Church. He came from Crosh and his father's name isn't mentioned. Sarah came from Carrigans and her father's name was John.They had 2 children George and Margaret. My grandfather George McCollum came to Australia in 1912 and settled on the Tweed River.There are only a couple of families who came over here and some go by the name McCallum. I have a letter from George's sister Maggie McCollum who lived at Carrigans dated Dec 1963 who mentions a cousin of George's Willian Lyons who had passed away in the August of 1963.Would this William be connected to you. Looking forward to hearing from you Regards Jenny Important Note: The author of this message may not be subscribed to this list.
