I take it from that certificate that a sibling of Thomas Curneen married a McMorrow and Thomas was their son?

Tyrone / Thomas Curneen
« on: Tuesday 05 November 24 07:09 GMT (UK) »
Thomas Curneen was a sergeant in the RIC who was born in Leitrim and died in Drumquin, Co.Tyrone where he lived in 1916. His death was witnessed by a McMorrow and his estate willed to a Michael Curneen, his nephew.
I have researched this family for almost 20yrs and am baffled about this man's existence.
I wonder what Curneen branch he came from?

Further to my search for Isabella I found a child William Ross born 20th Nov 1920 to William Ross and Isabella (formerly Cameron). I cannot find a marriage certificate but is it possible that James and Isabella divorced and Isabella remarried?
Certainly cannot find any of the Ross family in Census records.
Her son by marriage Alan was born 17th Aug 1921. Confusing......

Sedannan is located along the old Dromore Road on the way to Lough Muck. It is largely still a farming area with many acres of private land and little housing. My great grandmother lived there. It leads to St. Mary's Catholic church Drumragh.

They had six children between 1865 and 1876 and I can find no trace of them after birth.
Anyone any ideas please?
Thank you, this ties in with my tree - these Hughes' are my wife's great grandparents!
Daughter Teresa Hughes (born 15 January 1865 at Sheridan) married Thomas Hughes on 20 February 1887 at Whitehill RC Church. One of the witnesses was probably her sister Minnie (Mary) Hughes.

« on: Wednesday 28 December 22 09:18 GMT (UK) »found a probable marriage 11th February 1861 Kilskeery RC Tyrone, groom's surname transcribed as Aughes, image look like Hughes to me. Since it's an early RC marriage there's not much detail, just date, bride and groom and witnesses. Given the date I think there could be further children ..
No sign of any Hughes or McGee present at Sheridan on the 1901 census
Thank you do much for this, I'm sure it was not an easy thing to find.

Trying to locate a Michael Hughes b. 1834-1886 who married Rose Magee. I know nothing about Rose other than one of her children's births was registered by Susan Magee. They had six children between 1865 and 1876 and I can find no trace of them after birth.
Anyone any ideas please?

« on: Monday 20 September 21 19:02 BST (UK) »There was a lot of migration at that time. They could have gone to England, Scotland or USA & Canada. Did you find Michael & Sarah on the census records?
I just discovered yesterday this was no our Michel, sorry
