LindeL- The McManus's of the Borough/Aghyoule (James, Hugh and Pat) whom I have previously referred to had an uncle who was called the 'rector's Pat' and he married at Corrabrack into a Maguire family (Corrabrack is not far from the border outside Belturbet close to Agalane in Co. Cavan. Another uncle of theirs went to Arva and had a son a doctor in Arva (30's 40's 50's) and another son a priest (ordained in 1917 and spent most of his life in Westmeath), another uncle went to a townland beside Molly Mountain (Derrllin) in Co. Fermanagh. The Molly McManus also had 3 sons; Pat, Hugh & James who never married -the Lunnys who were related, now own that land. The 'rector's Pat' also had a sister Aine who married at Aghintra into a Curry family. One of the old house remains on the mountain side which you refer to is on land owned by my brother. The McManus were originally moved from an area close to the Crom Estate probably around 1850's or earlier (they were also related to the Gilroys of Aghyoule who were my mother's side of our family). Lunny's/Curry's would also be related to us .
PS I have not checked dates from census so that could be confusing, however I do know a McManus who has a fairly complete family tree of the McManus ancestry and he was to give me a copy.
