Hi,

Would anyone be able to decipher the birthplace's for Matthew Harvey & Ann Boyle please? Have also posted this in another thread - https://www.rootschat.com/forum/index.php?topic=839041.0

Thanks,

Thanks very much! Any ideas for Ann? Her parents were my 4x great grandparents, so it would give me some idea of where my Boyle family come from

I read "Ann Boyle born in the County of Derry parish of Donagheddie Ireland"

Donaghedy is a parish in Co. Tyrone though, not in Co. Derry.
LEES/LEE - Interested in all Northern Irish families, particularly those from Cos. Londonderry, Tyrone, & Antrim.

This makes sense actually. Glendermott aka Clondermot in Co. Derry borders on Donaghedy in Co. Tyrone

Sorry for the late reply, but thank you so much for your help.
Might Ann not have known that her parish was in county Tyrone and not Derry?
