Derryveagh Evictions, Donegal

My great great grandparents John Doohan and Ann Bradley were involved in the eviction and moved to Scotland.  I wonder if anyone has family that were involved in this horrible event.

Thank you for replying to my message.  Yes I have read the article.  I found my gggranparents name on the list.  When they came to Scotland the name changed to Dougan.  I think it was the person who recorded the census wrote it down wrong.
