Can any one help with the names of the towns shown on the death certificate for Patrick McCallion from 1865, one for the deceased himself Garegreau ? and one for the son the informant Duonagosker ?
Certificate from Coleraine co Londonderry.

Thank you that makes sense, do you think the other could be Gortgran ? Maybe just an older spelling ?

Hi, this is my direct ancestor and Gortgran is correct, spelt Gort-Grainne in Irish. It is a townla nd in Derry and his wife Esther died the year previous in 1864 also Gortgran. Hope that helps? :)
