Fermanagh / Re: Knockninny [Derrylin] Catholic registers
« on: Tuesday 07 January 14 20:57 GMT (UK)  »
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.

LindeL-  I will check that out later but if you had relatives relating to McManus in the mid 1800's then it could have possibly been the McManus that I'm related to! The McManus in the Burrow spelt different way (Borough, burrow) originally the townland of Aghyoule-possibly divided for church reasons.  The McManus of the borough side which I knew had 3 sons (Patrick, Hugh and James all born around the 1900-1910 and none of them married).  Their father (I will check his name) married a woman by the name of McTeague .The McTeague woman was also a sister of my grandfather's (James Reilly) wife on my fathers side of family.  Those McTeague womens father ( Patrick McTeague married to Bridget, were aged 70 and 84 years respectively in 1911) Patrick originated from what is now the Corlough/Corlaeehan area of West Cavan (previously in the Bawnboy/Templeport region).  That McManus family had other relations going back to the late 1800's and early 1900's who ended up in Arva/Colinstown/ Boston.  I hope this summary does not confuse without precise dates and names

blacksmithy- Most of the McTeigues would have come from what is now known as Corlough and Corraghleehan areas in west Cavan.  Corlough was formally part of the parish of Templeport until 1877 when it was established as a separate parish.  The more common spelling of the name in the area is now McTeague.  I also have an interest in the name and the area since some of my ancestors were of the same name and from the same area  (the names associated in my interest are McTeagues/Reilly's /O'Reilly/McManus.

Here are a list of the land occupiers in 1856 (from Griffith's valuation) of that name some of whom subsequently would have went to Clogher National school (1882-1973) in what is now the Corraleehan church area. 

The poor act law of 1838 was passed in order to deal with widespread poverty which existed in Ireland at that time and was called GRIFFITH'S VALUATION

Townland:Corraleehan, (Landlord Peter D La Touche). Hugh McTeague & Owen Maguire- 2 houses on 31 acres
Townland: Drumcroman, (Landlord Richard Coote in Chancery). Patrick McTeague-10 acres.
Francis McTeague - 13 acres
James McTeague- house (no value) on 1/2 acre
Farrell McTeague & Timothy McTeague- 2 houses on 26 acres
Charles McTeague -21 acres
Peter McTeague - 10 acres
Townland:Kiltgerry (Landlord William Ormbsy Gore),  James McTeague -15 acres
Townland:Kiltycreevagh (Landlord/collector Catherine Penelope Jones), Timothy McTeague & Thomas Prior - 2 houses on 25 acres
Townland:Oughteragh (Landlord /collector John King) Andrew McTeague - 46 acres
Townland:Stroake (Landlord/collector Catherine Penelope Jones), Patrick McTeague- 10 acres
Bryan Teague- 17 acres.  Mary Teague - 12 acres
Townland:Unshinagh (Landlord /collector John King)- Patrick McTeague - 18 acres

I picked these names out of a list of 37 townlands.  The land could/would have been in Michael's father name in 1856.

Best Regards

johnal52- Aghyoule, situated on the slopes of Slieve Rushen was a  townland with a large number of people in the mid 1800 . Incidentally the landlord for the area was a Major Collins from Platin, Duleek, Co. Meath.  I am aware of one family of McManus's in Aghyoule who's mother was Gilleece and the house was her home place. Aghyoule is in the parish of Knockninny, but Knockninny was formerly included in the parish of Tomregan. During the first half of the 18th century it was detached from Tomregan and became a separate ecclesiastical unit.  The parish church is now Derrylin originally built in 1797, but in pre-Reformation times there were churches in the townlands of Callowhill and Knockategal both along the Derrylin to Ballyconnell road. The ruins of Callowhill are still very visible with trees and surrounded by a wall (along the road).  There are two RC churches in the parish (Derrylin and Teemore built in 1893 with stone from Aghyoule). For postal service the townland is now in two, 'Aghyoule' and 'The Borrow'.

Kinawley parish includes Swanlinbar in Co. Cavan. The diocese of Kilmore covers virtually all of County Cavan, half of County Leitrim, three parishes in County Fermanagh and half a parish in Counties Sligo and Meath.

Drumrush is off the Yellow Road which runs parallel to the Woodford Canal toward Aghlane bridge and is in the parish of Drumlane, Staghall (the church was built in1846 in the townland of Kilconny)
Belturbet is in the parish of Annagh.  I hope having the townland in the correct parish will help.

Also there were many families of Reilly's/O'Reilly's in Aghyoule in the late 1890's and some of them originated from Drumlane/Miltown area of West Cavan
