Title: John Bell Family* completed*
Post by: DMAC1 on Saturday 04 February 12 16:48 GMT (UK)

I am looking for any information on a John Bell. I came across a will and probate record that said he was born abt 1824 in Killough County Down, Tipperary Ireland. He married a Catherine McKenna b abt 1831 Ireland. He died in Manchester England. He is my gr gr grandfather. Thank you!!

It might be an idea to double check he details on that will and probate record, the location doesn't make much sense. Down and Tipperary are separate counties and quite distant from each other.

There is a town in Co. Down named Killough..
