Hello,
  I am the great-great grandson of Alexander McGonigle, born 1828-1830 and emigrated to US (Phila.) in 1852 (laborer/stone mason). Ship's list shows Carnaugh / Carndonagh - Donegal as home. Ring any bells?

Thank you. I really appreciate your response. He may not be my Patrick, but your find reinforces my my belief that he was from the Roe Valley area.

Derry (Londonderry) / McCloskey's of Dungiven / Feeny

Looking for info. on McCloskey's of Dungiven / Feeny. My ancestor Patrick shows a baptism of 1832 in Catholic Church of Dungiven (now St. Patrick) (PRONI record). He married a Catherine Devine - not sure if in Ireland or States (Phila., PA). I assume he emigrated before 1857. I recently visited Dungiven to see church but found nothing new. Looking for some further proof I have the right guy. Most ships records show this area (Dungiven, Feeny, Strabane) as his possible origin.
