Donegal / Re: McClure Families of Fanad Peninsular

Thanks so much for looking at this Jack. John and Margaret Hunter are buried in the CoI cemetery in Milford.
I have a real feeling Margaret might be the Margaret McClure, dau of John McClure and Catherine McElhinney, Aughagault. McElhinney is big in the Hunter family tree, the Christian names would fit with the naming traditions in the next generation, and one of John and Margaret’s daughter and several grandchildren married into families from Aughagault, Drumkeen, Convoy etc… seems to fit…
Re the Dill family, Rebecca Rutherford dau of James Rutherford and Hannah Dill, Casheleenan, married James Hunter of Carmoney around 1834. This is one Hunter / Dill connection I’ve found.
