I'm not sure who wrote the obit, but obviously they didn't know, in two census it says James was born in Donegal, in the rest it just says Ireland.

Thank you

 have been searching for many years for James in Co. Donegal, recently I found his obituary which states he was born Co.,of Donegal, parish of Magilliagan, near Londonderry.James Wark was
either born in County Donegal, or he was born in Magilligan (correctly
called Tamlaghard Magilligan), County Londonderry.  There is no Magilligan
Parish in Donegal.  Actually, Magilligan is that part of Co Derry which
almost touches Donegal at the top of Lough Foyle . ( This information was sent to my by a fellow that is very familiar with Donegal.)
   So now I am searching this area to see if I might find something.

James Wark was married at Fitzroy Harbor, Ontario, Canada to Mary Ann Terry, suppose to be a Cousin of the famous Dame Ellen Terry , actress in England.

Whoops, I'm not sure what happened that this is a poll either, I am not sure what a poll is?
I am not sure what religion James would have been listed as when he was born, in the 1851 census, he is Church of Scotland, in 1861 he is United Presbyterian and after that he is Methodist. Any one any suggestions where I should start searching, as I said before this is all new to me in this area.
Thanks,
Cheryl
