This may not be connected but my gggranny was Mary McCaughern (presbyterian) - born 1865 in the Rasharkin area and she married a Catholic farmer Denis McMullan. My aunt tells me that her mum and dad were John McC and Mary Ann Boyd - I found this an amazing coincidence but my gggranny on my other side had the exact same name Mary Ann Boyd in Belfast. Two different marriageshave been  posted for you but I think that my girl must have been the earlier one. I have their family listings if you think that this sounds a possible link.

The McCaughern family name is my gggrandmother's family name.  The Mary McCaughern you mention may very well be related.  Your family listing would be good for me to review.  Question;  do you know if any of your McCaughern's went to the states?  Also, have you ever seen the spelling McCochrane?

My regular email address is    (*) if you wish to send the family listing there.

Thanks

June,
Do you have any additional information about Mary McCaughern, such as father/mother or other siblings?
