Armagh / Re: Will Calender on PRONI site
« on: Monday 11 July 11 23:05 BST (UK)  »
Hi,

I was in PRONI last month and where I had ancestors with 'Administration of the Estate' there was paperwork relating to it - usually a legal document verifying to whom the administation was granted and their relationship to the deceased.

As an aside, you might find it worthwhile to revisit the Will Calendar section at intervals as a member of PRONI staff told me that this is an ongoing project as they are still digitising public copies of wills.

Hi Eugene

Thanks for the link. I hadn't realised how detailed this map was. I now see why it has upset people.

Yes, I can remember the explosion happening. Sadly, that was too common an occurence in those days.

Hi Marc

The Port Mor pub that you mention belonged to the same Traynor family as the Aghinlig pub. However it is now owned and run by someone else.
At the turn of the 20th century, the Traynors were mainly farmers but during the first half of the century, they moved in to other business ventures.

Hi Karen,

My Great Aunt Rose Traynor owned this pub before she died and then it was owned by her nephew Christopher (Christy) Traynor. To the best of my knowledge the pub was not around in the late 1800's. I can find out more of the history of it for you and take a photograph, but it wouldn't happen until June when I'm back in NI. I am just starting to research my Traynor family line so I will be covering this.

The pub is no longer open as a public house but the building is still there. It is sited at the corner of a 'T' junction, on the main Moy to Armagh road about 2 miles out from the Moy. The building is a large family home with the pub at one side and a small general store (also closed) on the other side. At one time, the family also sold petrol.

I'm curious - What is your connection to/interest in the pub?

Regards
Mary
