Gortinanima,
I'm very interested in the O'Briens of Limavady. I'm trying to construct a time line to see a relationship with Charles O'Brien and my great-grandfather, Thomas O'Brien of Irish Green Street, Limavady.

Gortinanima,
I'm very interested in the O'Briens of Limavady. I'm trying to construct a time line to see a relationship with Charles O'Brien and my great-grandfather, Thomas O'Brien of Irish Green Street, Limavady.

Any dates for your Thomas?

Just picked up this email chain and very interested to see that the O'Briens of Limavady were so prolific. I too am an O'Brien and my own grandfather was born in Pilots Row in Derry with his father originating from Limavady.Im also led to believe that a branch of the O'briens may have originated in Letterkenny. Do you have any information on this sid branch.

many thanks

T

[pmccaff]

Hello. T.
I don't know about the Letterkenny connection, but I'm from Derry, as was my grandfather, Patrick Quigley, and great grandfather, Matthew Quigley. They lived in Derry, but in St. Columb's Wells, according to the census of 1901. Before that Matthew lived in Glasgow, Scotland. He may have got there from Donegal; I don't know. We have many Quigley relatives still in Scotland, and, as you know, many in Limavady.
I'd love to see if we are connected
PMcC

i don't

Dear P

thanks for the reply. I'm currently travelling so when I get back will dig out the records. I have a house in Culmore but flit between Derry, England and warmer climes. Originally  raised in Leenan Gardens many moons ago.

good to hear from you.

Tom

Wonderful to get an answer, even if we aren't related. I live in Montreal; get home to Derry occasionally. I look forward to hearing from you.
