Monaghan / Re: John Moore & Sarah Graham of Corranewy
« on: Wednesday 11 November 15 23:43 GMT (UK) »
Anne,
Sorry for the confusion created in my previous message.
First Andrew b. 1833 Co Monaghan, House Painter, he appears in the Scottish Censuses years 1871, 1881, 1891 and 1901 which helped enormously, this is where Co Monaghan is listed for place of birth. I also have the record of his death where parents John Moore, Farmer and Sarah Moore ms Graham are noted.
I know Andrew was in Chicago, Illinois in 1855, his marriage date is noted on the birth record of a number of his children, the ones born in Scotland, including my direct ancestor, their son Andrew b.1871. Others appear to be born in Ireland, which are separate lines to follow up on to establish their places of birth in Ireland.
The only record of father John in Scotland is the 1881 census where he is residing with his son Andrew, this is where he is listed as born in Co Monaghan, they were living in Glasgow. No trace of John in any other census for Scotland as far as I can establish.
Turning to Christiana and her father John. Yes I looked at the Griffith's Valuation today and found this fact.
Then I decided to use the names and the locations on Christiana Moore and Robert Lee marriage record, checking against the Griffith's Valuation. I also plotted the locations on a map of the area.
Well the address for Robert Lee at Kilmore East, Ematris Parish is close to Corranewy across the fields, maybe a mile or so! Kilmore East in the Griffith's Valuation is occupied by a Jane Lee, with a James Lee (Robert's father has this name) just down the road in Kilmore West.
One of their witnesses is a William Lee, in the Griffith's Valuation this name appears at Annaghyduff which is across the road from Kilmore East.
I also noted that at Corranewy in the Griffith's Valuation is a Benjamin Moore.
Agree on need for a new message line.
One question, Valuation Revision, how do I view these?
