Ballybay St Patricks Fife & Drum Band
« on: Thursday 10 July 08 14:37 UTC (UK) »
Hello, just wondering if anyone has information on The Ballbay Fife & Drum Band, think it was called St. Patricks. My grandfather John James Cunningham was a member. Thanks

Thanks for the information.  My dad often mentions 'Dodds Duffy'...any relation to yourself?  Also, this is a long shot but I'm also trying to find anything on Paddy Murtagh.

Thanks again!

Thanks for the email for the Ballybay historian,  My grandmother was from Ballybay, and, was a member of St. Patrick's Church.  As a matter of fact, it was right up the street from where they lived in the town.  She was born there in 1880 and emigrated to this country, with her sister, in 1902.  Does anyone know, if there is a site for the 1901 Census for County Monaghan?
Anyway, thanks for the address.
