Mary 'Minnie' McNicholl 1920

[gavcee]

Hi All,

I am looking for information on a Mary McNicholl born in Claudy around 1920.  I know Mary also went by the name of 'Minnie' and attended St St Peter's & St Paul's Catholic Church.

Lived close to the church (possibly Foreglen) however worked in Portstewart for a number of years.

It would be great if I could get more information on Mary.

If she was born in Claudy that can't be the right birth registration but could she have been born just after 1921? (the online civil registration index only goes up to 1921 for N.I. counties)

Quite a bit east of Claudy, but this couple went on to have a daughter Mary Ann McNicholl in 1921 (same address as census return - Coolcoscreaghan), also children James in 1911, John in 1913, Kathleen in 1915, Bernard in 1918, the couple were Daniel McNicholl (father James) and Annie Rafferty (father William) who got married in St. Joseph's Garvagh on 28 March 1907:

My information was that she was from the Claudy area.  I am not sure on the exact area where she was born.  However I am aware that the McNicholl familiy mainly lived in Claudy and owned businesses in the area.  So I imagine that it would have been closer.

It is possible that she was born after 1921, however from the information I have found it would only be a difference of one or two years.

Closer to Claudy, there was a Mary Ann McNickle born 3 February 1920 to parents Peter McNickle and Elizabeth O'Kane of Farkland?

Edited to add: Possibly Peter?

Thats might be her, the spelling of the surname varies.  I was given an address of Farkland, Muldonagh, Claudy.

How were you able to find that information?

Available on the RootsIreland website, subscription based if you wish to see the detail, potential siblings  of this Mary Ann included Annie, Bernard, Patrick, Peter, and James.

I have Patrick as a possible brother in my notes.  Looks like this is Mary McNickle....

Is there much more information on RootsIreland?  Would it be beneficial to pay the subscription?
