Fee family Coragh Cloverhill
« on: Saturday 07 January 12 09:34 GMT (UK) »
Hi folks,
I am trying to get information about the Fee family from Coragh, Derrada, Ballinamore Leitrim. I have received information from an elderly gentleman - mainly names - but would love to verify things with records and dates. 

Information so far:-

Michael Fee came from Inshina, Aughnaseelin (unsure of spelling. That's how it sounded phonetically) and married Catherine (Kitty) Prior.
Michael & Kitty had 9 children. Michael, Patrick, Lawrence, John, Hugh, Peter, Catherine, Mary & Margaret.

Their son Lawrence married Rose Duffy and lived at Coragh, Derrada, Ballinamore, leitrim. Lawrence & Rose had 6 or 7 children - Michael, John, Peter, Bridie, Patrick & Marykate.

On the 1901 Census Catherine Fee was Head of Family aged 66 yrs old. Her husband Michael must have been dead. She lived with her daughter Catherine aged 34, son Lawrence aged 28 and son Hugh aged 22yrs old. I found them again on the 1911 Census but there were discrepancies with ages e.g. Lawrence was 28 in 1901 but 44 ten years later.

Any information regarding this family would be most welcome. Especially birth, marriage & death dates for Michael & Catherine plus Lawrence and Rose.
Many thanks in anticipation.
Noreen

Hi Aghadowey,
Many thanks for this fantastic start. Just been told a number of the Fee family went to USA and that Michael was a baker in Rhode Island then ended up in jail!! Would love to know why. It was interesting to see that John married in Rhode Island.
Thanks again.

If you start a new topic on U.S. board I'm sure there's lots of information which can be found about the children that went to U.S.- possibly even a newspaper report of why Michael went to jail. Just be sure to include a link to this thread.
