Hi to all!

Thank you to all very much for all the information you have supplied here. I'll look into everything.

To see the 1868 marriage at reply #8 might help, for example, although no guarantee of long term residence, the addresses in that record might offer up leads, likewise the ages (if not just 'full age'). Some possibilities:
- Griffith's Valuation shows a John Knocktor in Ballinclare townland in the civil parish of Ballycanew, print date 1853;
- the tithe applotment books show two John Naughters (in Kilcavan and Monagarrow) in the early 1830s; 
- an Anne Noughter was baptised in Kilanerin RC parish on 13 October 1834, parents John Noughter and Margaret Connors of Kildermot townland.

But although unusual in the wider Ireland context, the surname was hardly unique in the more local vicinity, there were plenty of them around there, so caution advised.
