McKinley's of Legnathraw
« on: Sunday 02 August 15 22:21 BST (UK) »
I'm looking for the Death dates and were Thomas and Jane McKinley (nee Ferguson) are buried. The 1901 Census shows' that Jane McKinley and three of her children were living at Legnatraw. Her status is married, so I take it her husband is still alive on the day of the census. They are Presbyterians. Her father is living with her, a Matthew Ferguson who was born abt 1816 in Limavady. His wife Mary Fergusion (nee Irwin) was born abt 1814  in Drummond near Limavady and died on the 28 October 1897, aged 83 years. She is interred in St Johnson Presbyterian Church Graveyard. This is also the resting place for Matthew who died 10 October 1907, aged 91 years.
Thomas and Jane were married at Ballykelly Presbyterian Church, Co. Londonderry on the 17th October 1878, about a mile from the family farm in Ballykelly were Jane was born.

Sorry, the spelling of Legnatraw was wrong. The Census of Matthew you have is the wrong family. Jane's father is Matthew Ferguson 1816-1907 from Lisnakelly, Limavady. Matthews' father is William Ferguson 1780-1852 from Keenaught, Newtownlimavady.

I have spoke to some of the church members last week at St Johnstons and they think the McKinley family moved to Strabane. Have not had time to confirm this yet.

Hi There

Again though,

Do you have Sarah in 1911 ?

To look for records for Thomas we need a timeline.
