Where is Mahagacky, Tyrone?
« on: Tuesday 28 February 06 14:35 UTC (UK) »
On some documents an ancestor has listed her place of birth as being Mahagacky, Tyrone in 1858.

I have never heard of this place.  Her parents married in Aughnacloy in 1854.

Can anyone advise where this is, and ...   Embarrassed  the correct spelling ?

Thanks  Smiley

Oh for goodness sake!!   Roll Eyes   Roll Eyes   Roll Eyes    Grin

I think the 'M' in Mahagacky is actually an 'R'.  From Rahagacky, could they have misspelt Rehaghy ?  Does anyone know how this place is pronounced?  (excuse my Irish ignorance..)

I believe this is near Aughnacloy?

Would it Be Rahack Glebe? If so it is in the Parish of Aghalurcher in Tyrone.

Rehaghy is indeed a townland just outside Aughnacloy - on the road to Benburb. Pronunciation is as it looks -  Ruh ha he. Hope this helps
