Cavan / Lindsay family from Cootehill area
« on: Monday 27 November 06 00:53 GMT (UK)  »
Trying to find parish records or any documentation on the family of John Lindsay (born about 1775), and his wife Martha Wallace.  They immigrated to Canada in the 1830's.  Family stories indicate they lived at Cootehill, and so far the only documentation I can find is the baptism of one daughter, Jane, in 1822.  They were living at Corballyquill in the parish of Kildrumsherdan (Killesherdony), which is very near Cootehill. This entry was found in the Ashfield Church of Ireland register.  I can't find any further reference in any surviving parish registers for this family.

Monaghan / Whitcraft family of Clontibret
« on: Monday 27 November 06 00:44 GMT (UK)  »
I descend from the Whitcraft (sometimes spelled Whitcroft) family of the parish of Clontibret, Co. Monaghan.  The family resided there well back into the 1700's.  My ancestors immigrated to Canada in the 1830's and 1840's.  Several branches of the family remained.  Would love to hear from anyone connected to this family either in Ireland or in North America.
