Barb,

I'm replying to this message at your request so we can figure out why you're having trouble!

Derry (Londonderry) / Re: Leslie Irwin d. 1872 Philadelphia = Leslie Irwin b. 1836 Ballyness, Dungiven?

I think you are correct; thank you for bringing this up. Clearly Leslie was an important name in the Ballyness Irwin line(s). I have not checked the GV revisions to see what happened to the will-writer's land. My interpretation of the will was that he was leaving it to his Cassidy niece and nephew, but there were several other Irwins in GV who could have been grandfather to Leslie b. 1882, or this man's land could have stayed in or returned to Irwin hands.

Thanks,

Julie

Leslie Irwin born 1882 was the son of Joseph & Jane Irwin.

Hmm. So we have BallyRess in Gelvin and BallyNess in Dungiven. And Leslie Irwins in both. Gelvin is a new name to me.

I should clarify that I am connecting Leslie Irvine b. Ireland ca. 1837 to Ballyness, Dungiven only through his aunt Betty Irvine Kerr of Newtown Limavady whose siblings seem to have lived in Drumacarney and Dungiven. I have no direct link yet for this Leslie Irvine to a specific locality in Ireland.

Thanks again.

Hello, I have a kin buried in Eastern Necropolis in Glasgow....do you know of any records of this cemetery that are found online so I could check to find him there?
I see a partial list online of Southern, in which my gggrandmother is buried, but she is not on that, so I would also love to find the records for that one also....do I have to go to Mitchel to get those records?
