I am trying to find more Irish historylon my ancestor John McDowell and his parents Samuel and Mary McDowell. Given the early years and the small amount of information I have concerning their Irish history it may not be possible to find out anything. The facts I have are:
John McDowell with his wife Mary (nee Davidson) who married on 9 Feb 1853 in Alfred St Presby Church, Shankill, Belfast (Note this info generously provided by kingskerswell on RC, thank you) departed Ireland as Assist immigrants to Aust in late 1854.
The information on John McDowell is that he was 24 yrs (born c1830) and his native place was Tednavnet, Monaghan. His parents were Samuel and Mary living at Coothill?, Monaghan in 1854. His religion was Church of Scotland. His calling was Groom. This from the immigration record.
His death record adds that his place of birth was Glass Lough Co Monaghan and that his mother was Mary McColl.
I have followed the previous threads on RC re Mary Anne Davidson, native of Gilford, Co Down and the postings re her parents John Davidson and Elizabeth Mary Warburton.
I am interested in any suggestions regarding John McDowell and his parents Samuel & Mary.
With thanks,
Anniebelle
