Do your notes start with-
Family Tree
Patrick Mc. Ilroy was born approxiamately 1750 at Mullaghmore, Co. Londonderry. He married Nany Clarke, alias Ann Ross and moved to Inchadoghill, his descendants still being there. He had four brothers and one sister, his step brother David fought at Waterloo in 1815...
If so, I have a copy of them (well, four pages of them) which I got from Ernie in 1989.

Sorry for the confusion, lookingforold. I've been posting on this thread Pearlsing started and she responded on the Cornwall one where I'd posted a message. Have now merged the two posts to this thread  :)

When I got married and moved to Aghadowey I was told 'don't say anything about anyone because everyone is related to each other.' Will send you a PM later tonight to explain.

Well Hi!!
It sounds like you have the same as me, about four pages worth.  Now I'm sure you understand how I got confused with Patrick's children.  After I reread your correction and reread my faded copy several times the light dawns.  Thanks to Uncle Ernie.  Bye the Bye how does the PM work?  I'll try the help for an explanation.

in the  Aghadowey Presbyterian Church Graveyard Records number 220 McIlroy-Singleton-Fronius I can identify all the people except for "also in loving memory of Dorothy Glenn Fronius, nee McIlroy, 1934-1983"

Do you know who she was and whose child she was?

Thank you

Welcome to Rootschat. Are you another McIlroy descendant?
Did you get that from Bann Valley website?
The actual plot number is 374.
Doris Glenn McIlroy (18 Dec.1934-29 Apr.1983) m.1 (23 Mar.1965) Stanley Francis, m.2 (1980) Ron Fronius. She was the youngest child of Gilbert Kennedy McIlroy and Jeannie Henry McKee.

Hi!  I'm new to rootschat and my Grandmother (Mary Moon McIlroy) daughter of Jeannie and Gilbert has asked me to do some research about her Grandmother Margaret Clarke McIlroy nee Craig.  Does anyone have anything on the Craigs? I have some info but not sure if I'm on the right track.

Welcome to Rootschat I know quite a bit about the McIlroys, McKees, etc. but very little about Craig family.
All I have is that Margaret Clarke Craig from Benvarden (Co.Antrim) married 8 Feb.1880 Benvarden Presbyterian Church to Patrick McIlroy (c1844-1914), Inchadoghill. Margaret was born 7 Dec.1857 Co.Antrim and died 4 March 1943. Patrick went to farm at Knockahollet, Co.Antrim until his father died (1891) and then returned to Inchadoghill.

Thanks - didn't have Margaret Clarke McIlroys exact DOB.  I think her parents are William Craig and Margaret Dunlop married 13 Nov 1855.  I think I've got about 3 generations back from them on the Dunlop side but completely stuck on the Craig bit at the moment.  Grandma said that her Grandmother never really spoke about her family much and all she knew was that she was a Craig from Benvarden!  If you want, when I get myself organised I can email what I have to you (be warned though, it takes me a longtime to get organised!!)?
