Donegal / Re: Bauville, Keeloges and Clonglash, Buncrana

The dates for Mary married to Henry and for Patrick married to Sarah/Sally Corney means they are the same generation.
This means they may be either siblings or cousins.
To add to our difficulties there is another Mary Meenkeeragh (died 4th April 1865) who was married to John Barr of Bauville and begs the question of her relationship to Patrick?
Susan Meenkeeragh (died 17th January 1909) who was married to Johnnie Ownes; I believe to be a sister of Mary d. 1865) who was married to John Barr. So what then was the relationship of sisters Mary and Susan to Patrick?
I am saying that Mary who married Henry was not a sister of Patrick. Patrick was likely a brother of Mary and Susan so what then is the relationship of Mary who married Henry to siblings Patrick; Mary; and Susan?
In Griffiths Valuation in Meenamullaghan there is both a Henry Doherty and a Patrick Doherty. Is the Henry Doherty your “Wee Harry” or his father.
Am now working on all the families and awaiting the 1926 Census. We will never get the answers to all we would wish to know.

"Do you know if Mary "Meenkeeragh" who married Henry "Wee Harry" Doherty of Big Hill is related to Patrick Doherty (c1813-1899) of Meenkeeragh who was married to Sarah Doherty (c1819-1907)?"

What are the dates for "Wee Harry" ? Is it he who died in 1899?
If it was him how is it known that it was Mary Meenkeeragh that he was married to?

The man standing is my father who lost the fight on points. Have been trying to colorize but getting weird results because of my colour requests. My father had red hair and wore green shorts and my further request was for a blue sky in the background.
Hope someone can help.

World War One / Edward Joseph Murray RAMC
« on: Saturday 06 September 25 10:03 BST (UK)  »
My grand uncle Joe Murray was in the Army Medical Corp during the Great War which he never spoke about. He was always know as Joe despite being registered as Edward Joseph.
He had a mark on top of his head which I was told because he was hit by a mortor?
He was born in October 1896 and would have been living at 107 Foyle Road, Derry (London-Derry) in Ireland, when he joined up. His deceased parents were Edward Murray and Catherine Eames.

He spent the rest of his life working as a medical orderly

Any help as to his military record would be appreciated.

Thanks to all.

I suppose the day will come where a person gives some saliva and
AI will churn out a Family Tree together with family photos.
But that will only become possible because some of us have spent most of our lives
researching and gathering it all together.
