Hi All,
I'm researching our family tree and have made a few posts on the Antrim section. From the 1901 census, I have found a Francis Malone who was born in Co Derry, 1850/1. Having spent the last week digging and sorting, I cant seem to get anywhere. Would anyone have any info or ideas.
Thank you,
JTM.

Hello JTM
I have just joined and read your post. I am also looking for Malones- specifically a William Malone who was a farmer in Clarehill,Aghadowey,Derry in 1864. He had a son John who married Mary Moon in 1864. John, I think was my Grt Grandfather so William would be my Grt. Grt.Grandfather. Quite exciting.
Perhaps trying the Aghadowey site in Londonderry would help you.
Bye
Jeser

welcome to Rootschat. This is the Derry/Londonderry board.
John Malone, eldest son of William Malone, married Mary Moon, eldest daughter of Thomas Moon, in 1864.
John and Mary had the following children (that I have found so far): Joseph (c1867), Thomas James (1870), George (1874), child (c1875), Ellen Jane (1877), Sarah Jane (1879), Archibald Roger (1882).
A William Malone, son of William, married Nancy Hemphill in 1861.
Another William Malone (age 18) died at sea on way to Brisbane, Australia in 1864.
There were also Malones at Clintagh.
-
Another child of John Malone and Mary Moon was John Robertson Malone, born Aghadowey on 16 May 1871.

Will add that one to my notes- he doesn't appear in baptismal register for Aghadowey Presbyterian Church.
Should have also added that John and Mary (Moon) Malione lived in Knockaduff from at least 1870 onwards. There were Malones in Knockaduff townland by 1813.

Not sure if this is relevant but folowing on from Aghadowey's information Ellen Malone married Samuel Andrews in Ballylaggan Reformed Presbyterian Church, Macosquin Parish, Coleraine on 15 Jul 1875. She appears on the 1901 and 1911 census living in Garvagh (Sarvagh in 1901).

Wow! Thank you so much for all the replies, all this information with my first posting. Going to have a coffee and try to digest it all.
Once again thanks will be in touch soon.
-
Well Aghadowey and Kingskerswell
I have had a very quick coffee and you have come up trumps. :
The missing child in 1875 for John Malone and Mary Moon ,I think, is my grandfather - Edward Scott Malone -born 29th September,1875 at Knockaduff, Coleraine. He went to Scotland just before the turn of the century. The earliest I have is 1901 Scotland Census. Edward is listed as being a boarder in - 1 North Hamilton Street, Kilmarnock, and seems to be 26 at that time, so fairly confident that his him. He married a Catherine Butler in 1908 in Glasgow.
Now, I'm just wondering where I go from here. ' I'll be back'.
Grateful Thanks

Hello Aghadowey
Re. - your last post, do you know where I can get the information you gave me on - William Malone's marriage to Jane Cunningham or any info. on Mary Moon's father Thomas Moon and his marriage. I think that William Malone and Thomas Moon were farmers around 1864 but have been checking the land records and not coming up with anything. Many Thanks again.
Regards
Jeser

The information I posted was gathered from a variety of sources over many years. The main ones are-
William Malone/Nancy Hemphill and John Malone/Mary Moon- marriages, Coleraine Registry Office.
Children of John Malone/Mary Moon- birth registrations, baptisms Aghadowey Presbyterian Church.
William Malone d.1864- newspaper obituary.
-
I think the William Malone/ Nancy Hemphill marriage, is the son of the William I am looking for but it could be the William Malone d.1864 - obituary.
Lots of information there for me to investigate- Thanks again.
Regards
Jeser.

I am interested in this Ellen Malone - does anyone know who her parents are, where she lived?
Many thanks

See reply #6 on this thread for family details which I've already posted.

Many thanks both Ahadowey and Jeser, but I dont think this can be the right. The Ellen Malone I am looking for, married in 1875 at Ballylagan Reformed Pres. Church.

Many thanks both Ahadowey and Jeser, but I don’t think this can be the right. The Ellen Malone I am looking for, married in 1875 at Ballylagan Reformed Pres. Church.
What is given on the marriage certificate for her residence & father's name and occupation? also names of both witnesses?
-
Thanks Aghadowey. I realise now I do have a Father's name!
Groom name(s) Samuel Andrews residence Gortfad parish of Errigal
Father John Andrews
Bride name(s) Ellen Malone Residence - Caw parish of Errrigal
Father William Malone
Witnessed by Robert Graham and Elizabeth Cunningham
Ellen Malone was born around 1850.
Thanks

This Ellen Malone that married Sam Andrews was born in 1845 and married in 1875. Her Father William died in 1864 I believe. Her mother of course was Jane Cunningham. Ellen had 2 brothers - William and John. William married Nancy Hemphill in 1861, John married Mary Moon in 1864 the same year as his father died. John's daughter was the previously mentioned Ellen Jane Malone.
I am still checking for my own records but I believe your Ellen's grandfather was William born in 1780. Confusing when they kept using 'given' names. Hope this is of some interest.
-
Many thanks Jeser. Ellen Malone is my great grandmother, therefore I think, William is our common great great grandfather!
I would be interested in the birth record you have for Ellen. I would also be interested to find the William Malone d.1864- newspaper obituary, if you can point me in the right direction.
Thanks again for your help!
-
Hello again, You may be right about us both having William (born 1864) as our common Grt. Grt.
Grandfather. Imagine that! When I first started to take an interest in this family tree it must have been about 6 or 7 years ago and Aghadowey and Kingskerswell were very helpful as you will be see from previous posts, so have to admit that I haven't looked at it for a few years, it may take me a little time to go back through my notes, but I will try to get the information you are looking for.
Meantime, if William was your Grt. Grt. Grandfather who was your Grt. Grandfather?
-
Sorry last post should have read William (Died 1864) not born 1864. Silly!!!
-
Hello Jeser, my great grandfather was Samuel Andrews, who married Ellen.

Hello Aghadowey
I am interested in the William Malone d. 1864 - newspaper obituary. Could you point me to where I might find this please?
Thanks

Thanks
Coleraine Chronicle, 9 July 1864: At Brisbane Queensland, on board the "Flying Cloud," on the 11th Feb, last, Mr William Malone, formerly of Clarehill, parish of Aghadowey, aged 18 years.

Thanks Aghadowey. I realise now I do have a Father's name!
Groom name(s) Samuel Andrews residence Gortfad parish of Errigal
Father John Andrews
Bride name(s) Ellen Malone Residence - Caw parish of Errrigal
Father William Malone
Witnessed by Robert Graham and Elizabeth Cunningham
Ellen Malone was born around 1850.
Thanks
Thanks Aghadowey.
So I thought the obituary was of William Malone father of Ellen above....but obviously not!
I am beginning to think that the Ellen Malone above is not the daughter of William Malone and Jane Cunningham as mentioned in this thread.
-
Thank you so much for this.
Edward Scott Malone was my Great-grandfather.
My grandmother was Mary Malone who married Bert Ransome.
I have struggled to trace backwards from Edward, but looking at your information I seem to have got his father wrong, which might explain it.
Thank you
