Help needed please. Searching for my great grandparents Thomas McGuinness and Lizzie Quinn. All I have to go on the 1911 census where they show up in Ballykelly Level Intake and my gran's birth certificate.

Hi
You haven't included any details of their ages or birthplace nor of your gran's name/birthyear.
Link to 1911 entry

So presumably your gran was born post-1911 census.
You will see that the image shows they had been married for 6yrs so approx 1904/5. You can look for their marriage here.

Have you checked the 1901 census for them as they may have been with their respective parents

Duplicate on Tyrone
-
Hi Margaret
Duplicate posts cause a lot of confusion and additional work.
The 1911 entry shows them as both born and living in Londonderry so what is the connection to Tyrone? Was your gran born there or was she born in Londonderry?
-
I was told be it fact or fable that they both came from Tyrone so I included it there too. Sorry for the confusion.
Thanks Carole though for info but I couldn't find them on family search either. My grandmother's name is Jane McGuinness and she was born in Articlave Co. Londonderry 15 June 1912
