Dear Mary, Checked the latest Ancestry.com UK / IRISH Data base no TURVEYs listed in County Armagh; however, did see a MARGARET TURVEY, 26 Years of Age, departing Limerick, IRE on the LADY PEEL arriving NY on 15 October 1851. Cheers, Bob

Searching for information on the Turvey Family of Northern Ireland. In the early l800's they were living in Inishowen and in the Griffith's Valuation Margaret Turvey was listed as living in Co Armagh, Magheralin Parish, Donagreagh. I checked church records for the Magheralin region and there was no mention of the Turveys. Thank you. Mary Turvey

A friend of mine here in NZ is researching her family history of the Howlett Family originally from Belfast. Has anyone here come across the name on their family tree? Thanks Karen in NZ

This is my first time writing to the List and was wondering if anyone can give me any pointers on were to start looking for my GTGD Parents who came over to England about 1860, from what part of Ireland I do not know this is the problem. In the 1881 census for Co Durham England it shows Name Age Birth Place Occupation James Quin/Quinn 43 Ireland Coal Miner Susan [Mullen]Quin 38 Ireland Wife Their first child was born in Chester-le-Street Durham 1860 Patrick McCulloch 40 Ireland Coal Miner Ann [Namee] McCulloch 36 Ireland Wife Their fist child was born in Chester-le-Street Durham 1866 My problem is where do I start to look for what County they came from, when did they get married.If anyone can help me I'd be most grateful Bob

Good Morning Judy Hall, This message has nothing to do with your passenger list but everytime I see the Hall surname I give it a shot. My g-g-grandmother was Lucy (Lucille?) Hall. She married Luke Cranney in July 1868. Lucy was born in 1838. Even though they were married in Birkenhead, England, both Luke Cranney and Lucy Hall originally came from County Down, N. Ireland. Lucy Hall's father was John Hall. John Hall was already deceased when his daughter Lucy got married. The marriage record notes him as a "Ship Steward". Any relationship here?

Hello Listers from Down under, I am new to this list and would appreciate any help regarding this family. My gggrandfather' name was WILLIAM , whose parents were JAMES and SARAH CAMPBELL. WILLIAM was chris. at Loughbrickland on 16 Nov 1816. New leads are suggesting that the family was connected to the linen trade. Possible brothers were SAMUEL, HUGH and ALEXANDER. WILLIAM working on the Isle of Man where he married a local lass from Lambfell Moar in 1837. Fathet JAMES could have been there too. Any family out there?. William is well documented in Australia. My other N.Ireland families are McCONNELL DAVIDSON/DAVISON CURRY with Thanks Erla

Be careful of wanting to belong to the Campbells. They are murders and traitors to the Scots. They had some 200 some odd special Gentlemen of the Clan Lamont over for a grand meal to stop the fighting and make a peace between the two clans and killed them all for their guest at this supper. They killed them for the English. Now I am not upset for I knew them not it was to long ago. But in Scotland to this day the Name Campbell is a hissss and a by work. Good luck to you. fm

I enjoyed this article and thought it worth repeating for those of you who may have missed it. If you're read it already in the last issues of Missing Links, then just delete and move on. If you haven't, I hope you enjoy it as much as I did. -- Kathleen List Administrator _______________________ ~~~ Kathleen's Korner ~~~ Kathleen@KathleensKorner.net ==================================================================== THE WORM'S EYE VIEW: EASY DUZ IT by Beth Maltbie Uyehara <A HREF="mailto:BUYE@aol.com">BUYE@aol.com</A> Hi. My name is Beth M. U., and I'm a geneaholic. My story's not a pretty one. I am sharing it here in the hope that it may help others avoid my pitiful fate. If you, too, are addicted to genealogy, I want you to know that you are not alone. There are thousands of us worldwide struggling in the daily battle against this cunning, baffling and powerful addiction. There was something "different" about me from the get-go. Looking back, the signs were there for all to see. Even as a child, when relatives threw old Daguerreotypes in the trash, I would fish around among the coffee grounds and egg shells and pull them out. When old letters or diaries were discovered in musty trunks, I stayed up all night reading them. Obits, report cards, discharge papers, photos of unknown people: I hoarded them all. I didn't care what kind of document it was, or who it concerned -- if it was remotely connected to "family," I had to have it. I'm making no excuses. I had a good upbringing. Genealogy certainly doesn't run in my family -- I come from a long line of people who could take their ancestors or leave them alone. Yes, there were rumors of an aunt on my father's side who "did a little research on weekends," but she covered her tracks well, and I have never been able to prove for certain that she was a geneaholic. Aside from that one suspect, my relatives were all what we call "social genealogists." For them, a colorful forebear or two were good for party conversations, to be chuckled over at family gatherings, and that was it. Not me. Right from the beginning, I was out of control. I could never stop with just one or two ancestors. Every ancestor I found triggered an insatiable craving in me for two more, and four more after that, and eight more after that. I could not stop once I got started. Eventually, genealogy took over my life. Bouts of compulsive research would leave me babbling incoherently, slumped exhausted, sometimes barely conscious, at a microfilm reader in some darkened room, surrounded by other addicts satisfying their own shameful cravings for genealogical kicks. Many are the times I've been thrown out of a library at closing time, kicking and screaming, begging for just five minutes more, just "one more ancestor for the road." It was humiliating. As the years went by, things went from bad to worse. It was an endless downward spiral. I found myself sneaking from library to library in distant parts of town, even in other cities and states, searching for the ultimate high -- that mysterious immigrant ancestor, whose identity would make everything fall into place. I hit bottom one hot August day in a cemetery in a far-off state. How I got there doesn't matter. Let's just say that after much research, I had located the grave of an ancestor who -- according to family legend -- had died in some kind of accident. As I stared at the weathered, old tombstone, wondering how I could find out how he had died, the thought occurred to me: "I could dig him up and see." Immediately, I recoiled, aghast. "Eeeeeuuuuuuu," I cried, "yuk! That's gross." That's when I knew I needed help. Since that moment of clarity, I've joined numerous genealogy support groups where we offer each other strength and hope, along with research tips and potluck dinners. And I have finally admitted, to myself and to other human beings, that I am powerless over genealogy and my research has become unmanageable. It may be too late for me. But, science has found that young family historians -- those who are, as yet, only potential geneaholics -- can sometimes stop in time. Answer these questions to see if you are in the early stages of addiction. * Home: Has genealogical paperwork taken over any room in your house? * Friends: Is genealogy interfering with your social life? Do people edge away from you at parties when you burst into tears over the 1890 U. S. census? * Family: Do your relatives' eyes glaze over when you explain your latest research? Do you find dead people more fun than live ones? * Work: Is genealogy interfering with your job? How many hours of each workday do you spend on the Internet, or checking your RootsWeb e-mails? * Marriage: Has your spouse ever asked you, "Aren't you done yet? How far back are you planning to go?" * Health: Are you starting to show the physical and mental signs of geneaholic deterioration, such as red-rimmed eyes, a loss of interest in current events, a shortened attention span for non-ancestral topics, excessive viewing of the History Channel? If you answered yes to even one of these questions, you are on the road to genealogical addiction. You must not research even one more ancestor! You must stop NOW, before it's too late! When you feel an overwhelming urge to research, repeat the following until the urge goes away: "My mother found me in a cabbage patch. My mother found me in a cabbage patch. My mother found me in a cabbage patch." Good luck and God help you.
