Hi,
    In the 1831 census there are two McPeake families in Derrygarve, Bernard and John are listed as the heads of those families.

Regards

I take it Bernard and John must be brothers. I will check the census to see if i can turn anything elae up. Thank you Michael McPeake Northumberland

If Derrygarve (near Castledawson) is the place where Bernard McPeake lived is there a reason you are looking for his family in Swatragh area?
You are probably correct and this is the person who is my great great Grandfather. The reason why I mentioned Swartagh was that his son John (drowned in 1901) who emigrated to Newcastle UK was born there around 1850. Not having been in that area and not knowing anything about the Townlands I thought these places were all in the same area. It is Bernards parents I am now looking for as I have a direct line from Bernard to my Grandson John. We live in Amble Northumberland . ny information will be appreciated

I think this may be him. It is the previous generation I am after but I realise this may be difficult.

Thank you for this

My great great grandfather Bernard McPeake was a fairy farmer in the Swatragh area around 1815. I am trying to find the names of his parents so that I can update my family tree. Any information would be appreciated or a contact from this line of the family. Thanks Michael
