Michael Lynch in Drogheda

[seidkona]

Hi all,
Returning to my Irish connections - I've found that a Michael Lynch, born around 1794, is likely to have been from Drogheda.

He emigrated to Dundee in Scotland, and I have his burial record (1834, aged 42) which gives his birthplace as Drogheda. He was married to Margaret Haughey or Haghey and it's likely the marriage was before he came to Scotland. They had a child born in Dundee in 1830 and baptised in the Catholic church there, and there may have been an earlier child baptised in December 1823, putting the emigration before that. (The mother's name for the 1823 birth is given as Margaret Haray.)

I haven't found Margaret's death so don't have a record of where she was from, but it's possible she too was from Drogheda.

Please can anybody advise how to go about finding him?
