Looks like we have house 6, 7, 8, and 9 back together. Fascinating how that works out. I heard a cousin of mine is in town from England seeing about getting house 6/7 back up and livable. It would be a daughter of John Curran who moved to England. His brother James Joseph was the last to live there until his death in 2006. Both John and James are the sons of John Joseph Curran who is the brother of my grandfather Hugh Curran. Id love to get in touch to help her out.

Hi there, I just saw this posting re Hugh & James McLaughlin. James McLaughlin was my Grandfather, I do have some relevant information regarding them both as well as other siblings parents and descendants etc. Please get back to me if you would like to know more. I will look forward to hearing from you.

Kathleen, my McLaughlin's are from Dunross and Gortinarin near the St Patricks Aughaclay church. Are your McLaughlin's from the same area as well?

Im researching the family of John Crampsey (1843-1937) ; Mary Ann McLaughlin(1847-1929) of Dunross ; Faherna. They are shown in the 1901 Irish Census residents of a house 14 Dunross, Culdaff, Donegal and in 1911 residents of a house 30. John and Mary had 5 children. Anna, Margaret, Daniel, Charles, and Philip.

Specifically I need to figure out who the parents of Mary Ann McLaughlin are. Her sister Hannah (b. 1859) is shown in both 1901 and 1911.

Paul, John Joseph and my grandfather Hugh were noted as being Volunteers in my great aunt Bridget's obituary.

From I figured out they would have been in the 2nd Battalion, 3rd Brigade, 1st Northern Division, (RO 372). Glencolmcille D Company.

Does any information exist about D Company?

Paul, thanks for the reply. Our ancestors lived across the street from one another. Yours in house 8 snd mine in house 6 & 7. Is house 8 still standing? I can only find 6&7. I have had luck with Ireland Reaching Out. One researcher said the Curran's might be related but back several generations and from Malinbeg. I added a bunch of graves to find a grave for St. Columba's based on photo's taken by the parish.

I have searched roots chat and read the sticky post offering links to church records however I could not find an answer. Im looking for online records...if they exist... for St. Columba's Catholic Church Cashel, Glencolumbkille, Donegal, Ireland. Im interested in records for the Curran's who lived nearby in Braade Upper. Does anyone know if the records are only available at the church? And if so are there any alternative sources of information compiled?

Aughaclay Catholic Church caught my attention in this forum. My grandmother Annie McLaughlin and all of her brothers and sisters were baptized at this church. Her parents Neal and Mary McLaughlin were married and buried there. Im hoping one of these days to get over and visit the church. Im also hoping someone with a camera and free time who lives nearby can take a picture of the graves and post them to Find a Grave...HAHAHa. Ive found the family in the 1901 and 1911 census and trying to piece together their history.

This is a map of where my McLaughlin's lived in close proximity to Aughaclay Church
