 [ Mothers name not known ] a farmer . William emigrated to the UK he appears on the 1961 Census in Liverpool  . He subsequently moved to Tyneside where he died in 1918
Any help or suggestions as to how to research the family would be appreciated

Yes Tydavnet Church of Ireland is in north Monaghan...also called Tedavnet. It is not far from Glaslough.


You will also need to look at alternate spellings such as McKay etc.... If you Google  Tydavnet or Tedavnet you will get information on the area.

Also Google Ballinode/Bellanode village.    Lennaght   ..Killygavna


If you look at the top of the Census return page "House and Building Return"   you will see it is in North Monaghan etc...then read the electoral area PLU etc...no wonder it confuses everyone!!

You won't find much in the way of records but even doing a Google for Tydavnet and then searching for "McCoy" within the results might throw up something!

I did that with my names and got some "bits".


Best of luck
