Tyrone / Re: Donaghmore Railway
« on: Saturday 30 September 06 13:10 BST (UK)  »
Hi Gary
I don't think Donaghmore had a station but it would have been on the route of the Finn Valley Railway. Check out this link. I had a quick look but found nothing but it's certainly worht having a more indepth look.

Armagh / Re: Browne

Hi Christopher
Thanks for your help. unfortunately I am really stumped by Alicia Browne. The details I have posted are all that I have. I wonder how she got from Armagh to Tyrone ? She worked as a housekeeper/cook for a wealthy family near Strabane. The only guess I have is that might have arrived here through the hiring fairs. What do you think ?

Not really sure Christopher. Think it may have been protestant.
Thanks

Hello All
Found a family tree in one world tree with a possible great uncle in it. His name was Robert Dinsmore b 8th June 1910 died Loughborough 1960. I'm sure this man is part of my tree as well. If this rings a bell with anyone can you please get in touch. I may have more information on the family history and would be more than willing to share.

Tyrone / Re: Roman Catholic marriage in Tyrone
« on: Saturday 08 October 05 11:30 BST (UK)  »
Hi Noddie
Back in those days there was no border between north and south and people travelled freely back and forth. Strabane is situated right on the border and there is very little travelling distance between Donegal and Strabane. You could try phoning the Registrars office in Strabane District Council. They will be able to tell you if the marriage was registered in Strabane. Number is 02871382204. Alternatively check out thier website. I dont have the web address but if you type in Strabane District Council you should find it.
Hope this is if some help. I had the same trouble with my rellies travelling back and forth between Donegal and Strabane.
