Donegal / Re: Gallaghers of Ballyshannon

The Terence Mcgee you mention in your blog, do you know if his wife Mary had anything to do with Flahertys as my ancestor gg grandfather is called Terence Mcgee and people are suggesting he was from Ballyshannon area but I have nothing definative.  My great grandad John Mcgee (b. 1846) was his son and I know of a brother Terence also who is younger (b. 1851).

It would be great if you think there is a connection to your terence mcgee as I have really been stuck finding where in Ireland they came from because in all the official notes they just put Ireland

Regards Fiona :)

Thanks for the reference to Dongegal however I commissioned a search for John and his parents Terence and Mary (Flaherty) in Donegal and there are no records whatsover, birth, marraige etc, so would appreciate more leads on any other info you may be able to give me.

Antrim / Mcgee John brn 1846 moved Ireland to carluke

Looking to tie up family tree from across the irish sea.  I have certificates and documentation that shows the following:

my gg grandad was John Mcgee born Ireland 1846 - moved to scotland ?  first spotted on the 1861 Census living with Mcgarry family then onto the 1871 census living with his family in Mayfield Row, Carluke.  He married a lady from Biggar, Scotland called Jane Kidd.

Their marraige cert said that his parents were Terence Mcgee and Mary Mcgee (nee Flagherty).  My family have often suggested we were from Donegal however a search in this area has conclusively said there is no record of Terence or the birth of John in this area.

Looking for any heads up on where abouts of johns birth in Ireland - his dad Terence according to the wedding cert was a bottle work labourer (incase that helps anyone) and his mum was a domestic servant both were dead at the time of marraige.

Appreciate it if anyone has any info!!!
