Catherine Ferguson m George Sloane , Catherines father was a Thomas Ferguson
Martha was Catherines Sister.

I have a very interesting deed of partition that realtes to the family land just outside Gowna.

If this fits please feel free to pm me and I will send you all the dates/info I have. There are still these Sloane descendants living around Gowna/Cavan

Thanks for the help, thought it might be irish but there was family that had gone to the USA so that would fit in.

Hi,
This photo was among many I inherited from my aunt. Unofrtunately many were not labelled, I would like to date this photo. It is on metal plate and apologies for the quality the phot itself is rather damaged

Thank you in advance for any information

Hi
I have a Stafford in my tree as a marriage into it. My tree is on Ancestry, Paterson Family Tree but deatils are Jane Stafford marrying a Robert Kennedy, he died in 1864, I have no other dates for them other than their son John James Kennedy was born 1848 in Ballyhaise.
 Probably not much help.

Thanks for that. I know this Goggins family (living in Corfad, Stradone) is on the 1901/1911 census but I can't make a connection to my line as yet.
