Quite helpful, many thanks.!

Yes, the Currans are quite numerous, so I've been told.

Again, many thanks, JAP.  They all look very interesting-

Well, that was quick!  I have found back to great-great grandparents today.

Hello again,

One more question-where would one go to find either current land holdings or a telephone directory for Teelin?  I have been told I have living relatives in that town now.

Many thanks,

EG

Hello,

Many thanks, you are clearly very adept at this.  Margaret was my great-aunt, and I had not heard of James, although it makes sense.  I will investigate further.  I just got started at this, and already I have far more information that I thought possible.

With much gratitude,

EG

I looked up Christopher's map of Glencolumbkille's parishes and I found Ballymore, so that was easy.  Many thanks to Christoher for that information.

Still looking for any Gillespies in the 1880's from that area.

Many thanks,

EG

Hello,

There seems to be a number of Ballymores-the one I am looking for, it's actual location, is in Glencolumbkille, next to Inishkeel and Kilcar parishes.  It doesn't appear on any map-yet my grandfather's birth certificate from 1884 states he was born in Ballymore in Glenties-which is in Glencolumbkille parish, on the very southwest coast of Donegal.

I am looking for any Gillespies who may have been farmers/tenant farmers in that area from that time period-specifically Connell Gillespie and his wife, Bridget (Curran) Gillespie.

Many thanks,

EG
