Donegal / Re: McKinley's of Legnathraw

Sorry, the spelling of Legnatraw was wrong. The Census of Matthew you have is the wrong family. Jane's father is Matthew Ferguson 1816-1907 from Lisnakelly, Limavady. Matthews' father is William Ferguson 1780-1852 from Keenaught, Newtownlimavady.

Donegal / McKinley's of Legnathraw

I'm looking for the Death dates and were Thomas and Jane McKinley (nee Ferguson) are buried. The 1901 Census shows' that Jane McKinley and three of her children were living at Legnatraw. Her status is married, so I take it her husband is still alive on the day of the census. They are Presbyterians. Her father is living with her, a Matthew Ferguson who was born abt 1816 in Limavady. His wife Mary Fergusion (nee Irwin) was born abt 1814  in Drummond near Limavady and died on the 28 October 1897, aged 83 years. She is interred in St Johnson Presbyterian Church Graveyard. This is also the resting place for Matthew who died 10 October 1907, aged 91 years.
Thomas and Jane were married at Ballykelly Presbyterian Church, Co. Londonderry on the 17th October 1878, about a mile from the family farm in Ballykelly were Jane was born.

This is Williams first marriage to Sarah Anne Doherty. She died aged 31 years on 24 February 1875. Haven't found out yet where she is buried. They had 4 children who all went to the USA in 1880 via Canada along with their father and step mother, Martha Baird.  :-\

I'm looking to see if Nancy BAIRD who married Robert CALDWELL in 1872 at Coleraine, is from the same family as Martha BAIRD who married WIlliam GUTHRIE in 1876 at Coleraine

My Great Great Uncle married a Braid from the Coleraine area:-

William GUTHRIE, oldest son of Samuel & Margaret Guthrie [nee Wray]of North Ballinteer, married Martha BRAID, third daughter of John & Elizabeth Braid [nee Rankin] of Mullenhead on 1st June 1876 by the Rev. Dr. Wylie at Terrance Row Presbyterian Church, Coleraine, Co Londonderry, Northern Ireland.

In 1880 they emigrated to Canada and in 1881 moved to Wisconsin, USA. Along with William & Martha, were 4 children from Williams first marrage. His first wife, Sarah Anne died young at the age of 31 years.
