Families from Ballina, co.Mayo
« on: Friday 26 June 15 05:56 BST (UK) »
Charles McDermott was born in 1873 in Ardnaree, Ballina;
son of Thomas McDermott & Bridget Mullowney - his wife was Mary "Annie" Regan born in 1874, Bohernasup, Ballina, Mayo; dau. of Martin Regan & Bridget Hennighan.
They married in 1902 New York City.
They had a child in 1903, 1904 & 1905 all in New York City.
Charles was dead by 1906; Mary Annie died in 1907... the children were looked after by Mary "Annie" sister Maggie Killoran in New York -  then Maggie's husband died. In the meantime, the Regan family moved from county Mayo to Scotland. Mary & Maggie;s mother Bridget sent for the children & raised them in West Calder, Midlothian, Scotland. I have some info on the Regan family, but would like to find more information on the McDermott line. Charles may have had a sister born around 1866 in Mayo; likely there should be more children for this couple?? 
Any help with this McDermott line would be greatly appreciated!!

Two children in extracted Irish births (1864-c1881) but the database does not show all births-
Mary Ellen (1866) https://familysearch.org/ark:/61903/1:1:F52Q-MBG
Charles (1873) https://familysearch.org/ark:/61903/1:1:F5QN-R8H
Away sorting out DNA matches... I may be gone for some time many years!
