Hi,
It is great to hear from you. I'm not sure just how the Duffys and Kellys are related to the Molloys, or is it the Dempsey's? That is part of the family tree that I don't have sorted. I do know that my grandfather John Molloy's mother was Ellen Gallagher. Her father was Hugh Gallagher.
I still have an uncle living in Duntocher. He was married to my mum's sister who died a few years ago.
We live in Canada and my mum lives quite far from me, but she will be visiting in the new year and we plan on spending some time going over family history. Maybe we can arrange something then, or perhaps earlier.
Happy Christmas to you all,
Rob

I erred in saying that my great grandmother was Ellen Gallagher. Her name was Mary.
ON May 12, 1878 Hugh Molloy and Mary Gallagher were married in Saint Johnston. Hugh was 27 and Mary was 18. His residence was Tinkerford and hers was Newtowncunningham. Their fathers were Hugh Molloy and Hugh Gallagher.

Hi wms,
Your dad was John Stewart, son of Geordie? Would that be Wee Geordie married to Gretta McGrory?
If so, John was my cousin.

b.t.w - I tried your email address, it bounced back ??

Hello, I'm new here. Very intersted in all the previous replies. No connections to my family so far though.
I'd really be interested to know if anyone on here has any recollection of a family called McDermid. Mum and Dad John and Margaret. Children: Barbara (my great granny), Donald, Sarah, Patrick, Mary, Christina and Isabella. All of these children were born around 1885 - 1896 and all have addresses at Veitch's Court, Duntocher. I have more information on them if anyone has any connection or handed down memories.
Thanks
firsttimer
Hi firsttimer,
I just found this site tonite and am quite excited to find the name McDermid.
John and Margaret were my great grandparents, I think Margaret's maiden name was Kelly.
Christina was my grandmother, but sadly died before I was born.
I'd love to find out more if you have any information.

I would reckon we are talking about Ann.
Jim is also my relation as was John Stewart in the usual Duntocher way.
Though staying in Duntocher most of my days, I do not see people much as I work away a lot.
I was just shocked when I saw my "Aunt" Greta's name and then the host of ghosts and memories from the past in the remaining thread.
