Much appreciated.  Too bad, I was really hoping i could determine the exact plot of land that Patrick McCloskey had before he left during the famine.   

However, it sure doesn't help that everyone is named Patrick!  (Although I shouldn't complain as I have one of those as my brother and son!)

My Manus/Manassus McCloskey was from Teavin/Tyavin just south of Dungiven. Daughters Martha and Jane emigrated to US (Ellis Island) and on to cousin John McCloskey in Philadelphia in 1901
