Tamlaght O'Crilly Parish Margey Lookup

[bishopsb]

I would be very greatful to anyone who could look for Patrick Margey.  m. Helen (Ellen) McKindry d. Ballynian in 1910

I am looking for birth or marriage record.  I believe his parents' names were Laurence and Margaret Margey.

Would it be possible to locate a school record for him?

Many school records are held at PRONI and the dates covered vary greatly. To see if the records do exist you need to know where the family were living and then check the schools in the area.
County Derry records (not complete) show a Laurence Margy born 1854 (probably from a baptism) & a Laurence in 1880. Several Patricks- 1879 (more than 1?), 1883, 1884, 1885.
Only marriage for a Lawrence Margey is 1906 to Rose Bradley.
Patrick Margey m.1879 Co. Derry to Ellen McKendry. (exact date and place not listed on index). If this is the correct couple then it is highly likely that Patrick was born too early for existing school records but it is always worth looking.
School registers will give date of entrance, name of child and age (later date of birth), religion, residence (townland), father's occupation- names of parents are NOT given.

Hello,
I don't know if you still check this website. My great-grandfather was named Patrick Margey and he is from the same area and around the same age as the one you are describing.

hi aem49 -
Pleased to meet you, thanks for your message.  Patrick Margey was a my gggrandfather.  I am descended from Lawrence Margey and Rose Bradley.  I would love to discuss this further with you, information from here is so elusive.  Best, Susan

Hi All,
       Some of this may help. Patrick MARGY married Ellen McKendry in Kilrea R.C. Church on 22 Feb 1879. In the PRONI WILLS section there is a will for a Patrick Margy which granted letters of administration to his daughter Isabella Bradley of Ballymenagh on 6 Jul 1893. Patrick was a farmer in Ballymenagh and he died on 29 Jul 1883.
       On 10 Jan 1893 Isabella MARGEY married Patrick Bradley in Kilrea R.C. Church.

Regards

I was talking to some family members and I was curious if your grandmother was named Sally Smith and if she lived on long island. If so, that is my great-grandfather's sister

Hi there, wondering about your Rose Bradley, any idea of the townland that she was from?
Thank you!
