Does anyone know anything about the McElnea family.  I know they came from Killymarly in Monaghan but there is that many of them it is hard to figure out who belongs to who anyone with, any information would be greatly appreciated.

The McElneas (McElnays) are listed in the Church Records of several Churches including Clontibret, Legnacreeve / Braddox, Glennan, & Donagh.  All of these Records are now available on CD

Most of the Kilmarly McElnays attended First Monaghan Prebyterian Church in Monaghan town, they married into many families incl Boyds, Grahams, Molseeds, Gillanders, Jacksons, Heasty/Hastings...they sure were a big family!

I have to go to First Mon. church soon to get records and take some photos of g/stones for someone, will see what McElnea g/stones are there as they are great for sorting out family units!

I have just discovered by Great Grandmother was a Mary Jane mcElnea (daughter of Margaret McElnea (formerly Linton) and James McElmea). Mary was born in 1904. The dwelling place of the father is listed as 'killamarley'

If anyone else has any information that can help my research further I would be grateful.

You would need to e-mail me direct - if you look at some Monaghan names on the other websites - Ancestrry.com, Genealogy.com etc you will see my e-mail. I am also in touch with several McElneas abroad as per the Monaghan Exiles list of over 250 Members.
