I was hopeing his parents would have a child after civil registration of births started in 1864 but I can't see one up to 1870, to get her surname, they might have a marriage cert as thay weren't RC but the image of it wont be online yet if they do have one, and couples aren't matched up yet that early.

Possible marriage?

James Trotter of Tullyskeherny married Mary Weir of Boihy in Drumlease Church of Ireland on 30 September 1846, James' father was John Trotter, Mary's father was Spence Weir. Griffith's Valuation has an entry for Spence Weir in Boihy (print date 1857), likewise the Tithe Applotment books (1834):

You can see the possible connection of this John Trotter in previous posts of this topic.

My father , born 1899 and his parents lived at Tullyskeherney, and the ruins of the house still exist.
John Trotter was as far as i could go back to. He settled there about 1810, and his son Christopher Trotter was my grandfather.  They were related to the Trotters of Boihy, who originally lived on the upper road beside a stream, and later moved to the banks of the Bonet river.   Some of my Trotterts are buried in the C of I. Manorhamilton The grave stone has a small urn on top, and a biblical reading as well.

Sorry Christopher was my great grandfather.  My fathers's middle name was Christopher.
