Hi Lorelei,

Thanks for that - if your father met me n the 60s, I was very young.  But I do remember going to Uncle Bob Thompson in Cobh in the late 60s / early 70s

Hi,

I am looking for information on John Trant, of Dovea House (born 1818 or 1819).  One of his daughters (Eleanor Nina Trant) was my 2X Great grandmother.  She married a Rev Richard Nash.  Any advice would be appreciated

Thanks,

Trevor Fisher

Hello,

I am trying to find details of Joseph Reuben Fisher, former editor of the Northern Whig, who was one of the three members of the Boundary Commission in 1925.  My own great great grandfather was a Joseph Reuben Fisher, but died in 1924 (buried in the Quaker Burial Ground, Balmoral).  I am trying to see if there is a link between my family and the other JR Fisher, as I have many Jospehs and Reubens in my ancestors. Iddo have my own family's direct line, but am missing possible links to other Fishers.
My Fisher line comes from Reuben and Joan Fisher, from London, whose family came to Youghal in about 1699, and whose son, Reuben Fisher (1699 - 1723) was my my Great X 7 grandfather.
Any help on trying to find information about the JR Fisher (Northern Whig) would be most welcome. 

Many thanks,

Trevor Fisher

Hi Cathy,

Our two local Presbyterian Churches are Ballyroney and Drumlee.  I will have a look in the Ballyroney churchyard this weekend and in Rathfriland when I get a chance.  Rathfriland is only a few miles up the road.

Hi,
There are various spellings of Annahinchago /Annahunshigo / Hunshigo etc........we live in the townland of Annahunshigo, just outside Rathfriland, the Lake in the townland is marked as Hunshigo Lake on the map....lots of interpretations of what was probably quite an old name.  I am new to this site (this is my first post!) so looking forward to learning more about my own family (Fishers)
