ger_g who are your McLaughlins of Donegal?
« on: Tuesday 20 September 05 16:39 BST (UK) »
In reading around the posts, I keep one eye on who is searching for whom?

Ran across yours that says McLaughlin of Manorcunningham of Donegal.

You wouldn't by any wee chance possibly have a tiny fair mix of Quinn in your McLaughlins, now would you?

I have a Michael Quinn, born 1868 in area of Rosilly Bar/Leghowney who married a lady by the last name of McLaughlin.  Michael's father was Edward Quinn and his mother was Catherine Cassidy.

Hey!  It's worth a shot!  Who knows??

It's okay!  I'll take your information and tuck it away for now.  So far, I have only found one connection that went to Australia, but considering the size of this family, I'm sure there were more.

If I run across something that connects with yours, I'll let you know!

Patty, ger_g,

Why are you folks posting on the Lighter Side instead of the Co. Donegal Board?  Also omit the personal "ger_g...." etc. If you must at least use the PM system. I feel you will both get a better response if this thread was moved as McLaughlin is a big name in the North West of Ireland. Josef Locke was the stage name of Joseph McLaughlin (23 March 1917 - 15 October 1999) http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Josef_Locke You never know you might find a family connection to this guy. I feel this thread should be moved and have sent a message to Sarah.

Best Wishes, Chris
