Heywood,
It is the family that moved to Measham. My gr, gr grandad was Andrew Dugan and his parents were Michael and Catherine. Since the thread that Shane has refered to, we have discovered that Catherine's maiden name is Reagan, Regan, Ragin (depending on which of the 2 birth certs of the 2 children born in England you look at and how you interpret it). Also, a distant member of the family says his dad told his brother-in-law that his dad was from Moy. There is a Moy around the Antrim area and also a River Moy around the Roscommon/ Mayo area. I have been in touch with the place that has the records in Armagh that have records for Moy and Portadown and they have no records for Michael and Catherine. We have found baptismal records in County Wicklow, Rathdrum for ANdrew and Avoca for Catherine. But with the Rothoroghan find, I wandered if that may be more likely. In 1861 and 1871 (I think, off hand), on the census it says they are from Bottradon, and on another census later on, Rottradon. On the 1911 census, Andrew is down as being from County Mayo. ANdrew married a woman whos mother was from Galway. We have found 2 baptismal records for a Michaelem Diggin and a Catharina Regan in Roscommon, Michael in Killukin, Roscommon and Catherine in Boyle, Roscommon. On an old map of Roscommon, I found the place Rathoroghan and thought it may well be Bottradon or Rottradon. Bellgrove is the nearest that have found for Dareygrove where Catherine is supposed to be from (again doesn't exist).
The Killa Maver rings a bell but I can't remember why.
I appreciate that Portadown has been mentioned, but having contacted someone in Armagh who has looked for me with no success, I am exploring other options.
