Hello Martin!
So glad you contacted me. I was in Raheendarragh and Rathanna in 2015. I was at the cemetery as well. We can go back and forth with email. It may be a little less cumbersome.
A quick summary:
I am descended from the McDonalds (also in some records as "McDonnell, McDonel, etc. ) of Raheendarragh, which is near to Tomduff. The furthest back I got was John McDonald and Judith Coady. I believe you are correct in saying these are not the Tomduff McDonalds, however, I firmly believe they are cousins. I say this because there are so many shared names between the 2 families.
I have the son of John and Judy, from Raheendarragh as Thomas, my 3rd great-grandfather. He was born 1790, died 1886, and concurrent with his life was a Thomas McDonald in Tomduff, who married Mary Neil. I think these 2 Thomas' were cousins.
Thomas of Raheendarragh had a son, Patrick, who emigrated to America via Liverpool in 1869. He is my 2nd great-grandfather. The McDonalds from Raheendarragh still own the original house! I located themduring my trip and they brought me to stay there. It was incredible. Anyway, I have been researching this line for years, and would love to hear your thoughts. I also have some parish records I could send you. ^(*)
All my best
Stephen

Pat & Handy,
These are superbly done! It's amazing, the detail you both pulled from this photo.
So grateful!
Stephen

Thanks for your lovely replies to all restorers, Stephen. It's responses like yours that keep us coming back for more!
Here is my try again with the corrected date, and one without a date.
Hope your dad enjoys the restores.
Cheers,
Peter

Thanks Peter!
It is a  real joy to see the spectrum of creative expression from such talented people like you all. I thank each and every one of you for willingness to breathe life into a stranger's old photos. It's obvious why so many people get more out of this site than any other genealogical site out there.
All the best,
Stephen
