Title: ESTHER MCPEAK 3rd Great grandmother?
Post by: s58roads on Thursday 22 May 14 12:29 BST (UK)

My 3rd great grandmother was an Esther Mcpeak. ( ms McKerry )
Findmypast shows 2 records which may or may not be the same person :

Death Transcription- d 1864, age 74,  Reg. Dist. Magherafelt vol 16, page 489
1831 Census Transcription - House 4, Tyannee, Tamlaght O'Crilly, 2Males, 2 Females, All RC
Can anyone expand on these records please?
Geoff

You're not going to get much in the way of "expansion".  Record here:

Thanks for your help Gaffy. Through a personal message I can now eliminate the lady in the death certificate as a possibility. So I am still on the hunt for clues.
