Hi all,
I am hoping that someone will be able to take photos of headstones for McGuigan and Donoughy. I am looking for a Michael McGuigan and Catherine McGuigan nee Donoughy and there children Susan, James, John Catherine and Ellen.
I would do it myself but unfortunately I live in England so it is not that easy.
Any help would be more than appreciated as I am completing this research for an elderly aunt.
Thank you for all your help
Kieran
-
Which graveyard? and are you sure there are actually headstones to photograph?
-
Hi aghadowey,
It would be the Roman Catholic graveyard. I am not sure of there are headstones but I am hoping that there are.
Thanks
Kieran
PS I don't know the area at all
-
There are only 3 graveyards in Garvagh itself (attatched to St. Paul's Parish Church, First Garvagh Presbyterian Church and Main St./2nd Garvagh Presbyterian Church.
There are four places outside Garvagh where Catholics could be buried- really just depends on where they lived. There are graveyards at both chapels (known Boleran and Glenullin) and 2 very early burying grounds (Desertoghill and Errigal) where very few legible headstones are standing.
A bit farther away are 2 chapels near Swatragh, etc.
-
Hi aghadowey,
Thanks for your reply. I have made some headway since. The family lived in a townland called Dunavenny which is in Slaght, Co Londonderry.
This is the family in the 1901 census
http://www.census.nationalarchives.ie/pages/1901/Londonderry/Slaght/Dunavenny/1520412/
and them in the 1911 census

http://www.census.nationalarchives.ie/pages/1911/Londonderry/Slaght/Dunnavenny/591479/
Thanks for all your help
Kieran
-
Dunnavenny is in Errigal Parish (Slaght is the D.E.D. in the census) which narrows it down to 2 two graveyards- old Errigal burying-ground (very few headstones) and the chapel at Glenullin (lots of headstones).
-
Hi aghadowey,
Thanks for all your help with this. Do you know what RC graveyard would cover Agivey, Mullaghmore, Aghadowey, Co Derry. As my grandfathers wife was Dempsey from there and I would love to try and find the headstones to complete my research.
Thanks for all your help
Kieran
-
Dempseys buried in old Agivey burying-ground for many years- only most recent Dempsey burials at St. Mary's. Only 5 Dempsey headstones in Agivey.
-
Hi aghadowey,
Thanks for your reply. Do you happen to know the names on the five headstones?
I can give you the names of the people on the headstones that I am trying to find.
Thanks for all you help
Kieran
-
What are the names?
-
Hi aghadowey,
Parents were called James Dempsey and Sarah Dougherty.
Mark born in 1865
John born in 1866
Hugh born in 1874
Mary Jane born in 1879
Mary born in 1881
Elizabeth born in 1870 but she died in Scotland
Thanks for all your help
Kieran

1. Saragh born 10 Apr.1864 Aghadowey dist.
2. John born 30 July 1866 Aghadowey dist.

9. Mary born 16 Jan.1881 Aghadowey dist.
10. John born c1883.
11. child.
-
Hi aghadowey,
Thanks for your reply. Thanks for all the information do you know if any of them got married or when any of them died?
Thanks for all your help
Kieran
-
James, Sarah and 7 of the children alive in 1911. I don't have any further details.
-
User Aghadowey, my Great Great Grandfather was James Dempsey (1877). Where did you get your information for the list of his siblings? Is there anymore information about his parents, James Dempsey and Sarah Dougherty? Thanks for your help!
-
I've been collecting Dempseys for years :)
Am waiting for a phone call but will have a look through my files shortly.
-
Thanks for helping me out. I know that James Dempsey (1877) married Mary McKay in Scotland - their daughter, Marold Grant, is my Great Grandmother. I have quite a bit on the McKay's, but nothing on the Dempsey's. Anything you could provide would be great.
-
Most of the children of James Dempsey & Sarah Dougherty are listed in extracted Irish births at www.familysearch.org.
Your great-grandfather is listed here-
https://familysearch.org/pal:/MM9.1.1/FGFF-8LB
Note: father's birthplace is not listed on birth certificates- this is the residence of the family and when LDS indicates this it usually means the child was born in a different townland than where the family was living at the time.
In the 1901 census the family are in Cornamucklagh:
www.census.nationalarchives.ie/pages/1901/Londonderry/Agivey/Cornamuclagh/1516103
Same townland in 1911:
www.census.nationalarchives.ie/pages/1911/Londonderry/Agivey/Cornamuclagh/652013
Note: Joseph Hogg or Dempsey was probably their grandson- there is a birth reg. in 1896 for a Joseph Dempsey but no Joseph Hogg in the area around the same period.
The marriage of James & Sarah was before the start of civil registration of Catholic marriages so I don't have his father's name. James was a bleacher at Mullaghmore and they likely lived in one of the houses associated with Barklie's bleach green there. Barklies ran into financial difficulties and by 1901 James Dempsey is a labourer working on local roads.
Here's a picture of the chapel the family would have attended in later years-
http://www.discovereverafter.com/graveyards/80/coleraine-aghadowey-our-lady-of-the-assumption-rc-church
No headstones for your Dempseys seem to exist- it's possible they never had the money to put up a headstone. Previously there was a chapel at Mullaghinch (also known as Bovagh Chapel) but after it fell into disrepair the local Catholics met in various places (including Dick Toye's barn) until they obtained permission to build St. Mary's. There were no burials at the old chapel- the old Dempsey burying ground would have been at the old pre-Reformation graveyard at Agivey.
-
Thank you so much! This will really help me out.
-
Would love to be able to connect them to other Dempseys here but they all used same names over and over again. If you get any more details will see if I can get anything else for you.
-
Hi Aghadowey,
There used to be a Moira Dempsey who it was thought that she was related to this family of Dempseys but she died. However, she had a family tree of the Dempseys going away away back generations.
Hope this helps
Kieran
-
I knew Moira quite well and yes she had the Dempsey family tree that had been done a number of years earlier on brown paper with pencil. All the Dempseys are probably related but the problem is linking them up.
-
Hi Agghadowey,
It looks like three of the Dempsey children died young. This is what I found
Mark Dempsey, age 1, 1869 Coleraine registration district, volume 11 page 304
Mary Jane Dempsey, age 0, Oct./Dec.1879 Coleraine registration district, volume 1, page 367
John Dempsey, age 31, July/Sept.1914 Coleraine registration district, volume 1, page 325
So with this that is 5 of the children accounted for
Kieran
-
Mark Dempsey, age 1, 1869 Coleraine registration district, volume 11 page 304
I already listed his death is 1869 (reply #11)
Mary Jane Dempsey, age 0, Oct./Dec.1879 Coleraine registration district, volume 1, page 367
sister Mary was born 1881
John Dempsey, age 31, July/Sept.1914 Coleraine registration district, volume 1, page 325
possibly
Actually, 4 of the 11 Dempsey children were dead by 1911.
-
Without appearing to hijack this thread, I too, have a Dempsey in my tree.
William Dempsey b abt 1894 and lived at Balnameen married a much younger woman,
Mary Taggart about 1946-50 but, sadly died after a tragic road accident in Feb 1965 in Birmingham.
(Knocked over and killed on a zebra crossing).
Don't know whether this has any relevance to the other Dempsey's in this thread but who knows?
Also my grandparents lived in Garvagh, (where my mother and her sister Mary were brought up)
James Hamilton b 1879 d abt 1955 buried? at Garvagh 1st. Presbyterian Church.
Emma Hamilton (wife) b 1897 d 1987 buried? St Pauls' C of I.
Emma was a cleaner at St Pauls for many years.
Kind regards
Jim
-
Having a look through some files now...
-
Do you know the name of William's parents? I can't see a William Dempsey the right age in 1901/1911 census.
-
Aghadowey:
Sorry, I have no other details than what I posted. William may have been previously married, seeing the age he was, when he died (aged 71).
I didn't find any details of him in the 1901/11 census either. He could have been born anywhere?
It was a very long shot on my part to say the least but, something may come to light in the future.
Thanks for looking.
Jim
-
Do you have William's marriage certificate? that would give status (single, widowed or divorced) and hopefully father's name and occupation.
I have lots of records pertaining to families in Balnameen but can't pinpoint William Dempsey there. Am wondering if he could have been known as William _ (another surname).
-
My Grandad was William Dempsey came from Garvagh, apparently he was a Sergeanr Major in the Army at one time. My Dad told me he was run over by a lorry in England. My Dad had a brother Bill and two sisters one was Mary cant remember the name of the other sister there could have been more. Wonder if this is the same person.

Just spoken to my Mum and my Grandad William Dempsey was killed in Birmingham. My Dad Robert James Dempsey was born in 1930 so Mary Taggart would have been Williams second wife as I know my Grandmother left William and moved to England. My Dad's brother also William married a Mary in Ireland but later he moved to England. I know he had 2 sons who were Alastair and Jack and daughters but she can't remember their names (long time ago). She also can't remember my Dad's sisters names, I know this is all a bit vague but my Mum is 82.

A William M. Dempsey, age 77 died 1959 Birmingham district- could this be him? if not, when did he die? age at death will give us an idea of when he was born
See reply #34
-
Another possible death?
William H. Dempsey, age 74, died 1960 Birmingham district
Born c1886 so might be this William Henry Dempsey-

Going back through this whole thread is the following post from 2013 which sounds like your William Dempsey-

William Dempsey b abt 1894 and lived at Balnameen married a much younger woman,
Mary Taggart about 1946-50 but, sadly died after a tragic road accident in Feb 1965 in Birmingham.

Unfortunately, Jim (user name confusion) never responded to query about marriage certificate.

So now know my Grandmothers name was Rose who was married to William had 4 children, Robert, William, Mary and the other girl unknown name. The younger William know as Bill married Mary and lived in Ballameen had two boys Alastair and Jack and we think either one or two girls. Robert Dempsey married Alice Piggott in London and had a boy Robert and a girl Jacqueline. My Dads older sister Mary died quite young. So I know confused post was a long time ago would be nice if he saw this information perhaps would clear a few things up.
-
Probably best not to keep quoting in each post as numerous quotes make the whole post too long and difficult to follow and remember not to post details of anyone who might still be living ;)
Off to look up a few things in files here...
-
Think things have gotten very confused here :-\
William Dempsey killed in Birmingham-
was he William Henry Dempsey? did he serve in WWI and was gassed in a fluke accident involving a dead horse?
-
Yes his name was William Henry cant say about the gas incident. My Dad passed away some years ago so it's only what my Mum can remember
-
Okay- you still have Dempsey relatives in Garvagh :)
According to what his nephew said, William Henry Dempsey lived at Trinaltinagh, near railway, with an aunt and uncle and worked as boot/shoemaker before WWI. During the war he was burying dead horses (not a pleasant task) that had gotten gassed and one exploded, He survived the war, dying in an accident in England.
Here's William Henry Dempsey in 1901 with the aunt and uncle- age 15 so born c1886-
www.census.nationalarchives.ie/pages/1901/Londonderry/Garvagh/Trienaltenagh/1519809
By 1911 aunt & uncle were living in Boveedy (still not that far from Garvagh)-
www.census.nationalarchives.ie/pages/1911/Londonderry/Hervey_Hill/Bovedy/591544
Uncle William Dempsey married 21 Nov.1882 Finvoy Presbyterian Church, Co. Antrim, to Mary Jane Canning- his residence listed as Dirraw townland, Finvoy Parish-
https://civilrecords.irishgenealogy.ie/churchrecords/images/marriage_returns/marriages_1882/10980/8014038.pdf
I suspect that this is your William Dempsey's death-
Another possible death?
William H. Dempsey, age 74, died 1960 Birmingham district
Born c1886 so might be this William Henry Dempsey-
www.census.nationalarchives.ie/pages/1901/Londonderry/Garvagh/Trienaltenagh/1519809
-
William Dempsey married 3 April 1933 Coleraine district to Rose McAtamney. GRONI will have the certificate available to view. If he was illegitimate then father's name unlikely to be listed.
If you want contact details for your relative in Garvagh send me a PM and I'll give you the details.
-
Thanks for all the info but having spoken further to my Mum my Dad was enstranged from his family so I am going to respect his wishes and not go any further with this although I find it fascinating and may one day visit to see where he was born
-
It has been interesting reading these updated posts and I can only add that this is one
brickwall that I couldn't break. I gave up with this line after finding NO marriage records
for William (aka Willie) Dempsey and Mary Taggart and No birth records for any of their and
her subsequent children especially knowing their names and their ages.
Unfortunately, this is one line of my family history that possibly will never be completely
satisfied. Who knows what the future will bring? I may return to it again one day.
Kind regards
Jim

Hi :)
Apologies if this isn’t the correct way to address a previous post :-\ but I’m very new to this and trying to navigate through it. ???
I have been trying to gather any information with regards to the previously mentioned William Henry Dempsey (1886-1960) who died in a traffic accident in Birmingham UK … he’s my maternal great grandfather and I’ve been trying (unsuccessfully) to find his birth parents -
I know he was raised by his uncle and aunt (William Dempsey b1864 d8/11/1933/ Mary Jane Dempsey(nee Canning b1865 d24/10/1945) Both buried in Bovedy Presbyterian Church, where according to the 1911 census, was the area they lived.
I know that William Dempsey’s father was called James Dempsey and was a labourer - again, have come to a dead end trying to find any information about him also.
Would really appreciate any help pointing me in the right direction. :)
Do you have William's marriage certificate? that would give status (single, widowed or divorced) and hopefully father's name and occupation.
I have lots of records pertaining to families in Balnameen but can't pinpoint William Dempsey there. Am wondering if he could have been known as William _ (another surname).

A few things that I don't think have been mentioned yet-
1911 census shows William Dempsey, age 25, single, born Ireland, bootmaker in the Army-
https://www.familysearch.org/ark:/61903/1:1:X7V7-3Z8
His birth registration shows father James Dempsey was living in Scotland so that might be the place to search further for his parents.
https://civilrecords.irishgenealogy.ie/churchrecords/images/birth_returns/births_1885/02639/1973209.pdf

Marriage of James C.Dempsey to Elizabeth Canning gives his full name as James Carson Dempsey in his signature-
https://civilrecords.irishgenealogy.ie/churchrecords/images/marriage_returns/marriages_1881/11008/8024978.pdf
James Carson Dempsey of Rasharkin was the informant for the death of James Dempsey also of Rasharkin on 21 June 1880, a married labourer. This is likely to be James C. Dempsey's father.
