re annie mc laughlin
i be related to the dohertys of meenamullaghan [bighill] that sarah stralls married though though that connection would very far back in time the patrick doherty you speak of in the photo what age would you put him at now presently sarah son patrick doherty my good friend died last easter monday he was aged 63 years when he died if its further back than that he had an uncle patrick doherty before my time but i can find out more on these matters no problem at all i can ask patricks brother tom and some older members of the community i remember my mother telling me that she used to stay with the dohertys when she was a little girl that would have been around 1916 approximately she was in the house one night when the priest came to tell the dohertys than one of their family had been knocked down and killed by an army lorry i would think that would have been an uncle of sarahs husband but i will clarify that as well i believe sarah faters was called big tommy stralls their house is still there yet like i said last night roseanne stralls lived there until her death in recent years i will keep you informed as i get more info and clarity i wil also look at the birth deaths and marriages liam
