Thank you for the info! Interestingly enough the system allowed me to send the message without any error so I did not realize this.

They might get the message but then not be able to reply by PM so hopefully will return to this thread.

Do you have information on Patrick Harkin m. to Annie Rogers around 1900?

The reason I'm asking is they were witnesses at my greatgrandparents wedding in Ardstaw co Tyrone in 1891.
I'm trying to find out more information about Michael Dolan who married Margaret McAleer. They lived in Newtownstewart, Tyrone, moved to Glasgow after 1897.

Any info appreciated.

Hi all!

I'm new to genealogy and was wondering if I could find some help with some of my roadblocks on here. I'm currently researching my great grandmother's family from Donegal. Here's what I know so far:

My GGrandmother was Catherine Harkin (b. 1906 in Croagh). From the 1911 Census, I learned that she lived in the townland of Croagh with her father Hugh Harkin, mother Rose, and siblings Mary Anne, Maggie, Rose and John. (Also Hugh's brother Patrick lived next door) I know Mary Anne and John moved to the US before my GGrandmother did and I don't need further information on her or them.

What I would like to find is any information on their parents Hugh & Rose. I was able to estimate their birth dates from the census form but not much else (1872 for Hugh and 1871 for Rose). I can't seem to track down Rose's maiden name or Hugh's parents' names. Also I am interested in finding more about her siblings Maggie and Rose who I am pretty sure stayed in Ireland as well.

If anybody has information on this family, or can point me in a new direction so I can continue researching I'd really appreciate it!

Do you have any info on the brother Patrick that lived next door? was he married to Annie?
