:)re McMahon's...have been doing my family tree for over forty years lol and cannot find anything about my grt grt grt grandfather John Mcmahon who was born about 1831 in Ireland. On a census he said he was born in meath. He married a Mary Clark in Dundee in 1853 and he is on the 1851 census in Dundee on his own. His wife to be was with her own parents......I have looked at other people with the Mcmahon name who around the same age as John and have paid for their birth marriage and death certificates only to find they are not his brothers or sisters.....John's parents on his death certificate are listed as Michael McMahon and Catherine Conlay which his wife Mary listed
so you think she would know what they were called.....John had kid called Michael who was actually called James, Susan another name that crops up and as it is an unusual name for around that time
anything mentioning that name I take a note of. They also had Catherine, Mary Ann, Helen, Sarah Jane Mcmahon my grt grt grandmother, a john and many more...easy seeing not much going on where they were living....lol.... If anyone could help me with this problem for forty years I would be very grateful.....Get in contact if you are looking for certificates as I might have them...
Mary Clark was born to a Peter Clark in Shercock ...and a Sarah Lennan. Again few information on them although Sarah Lennan had a son previously and was called Joseph Palles His father was called Christopher....Sarah with Joseph have a well known establishment in Dundee called the Palais in Tay Street. I have information sheet with them applying for a licence in Ireland so it is quite interesting and JOSEPH PALLES is a Chelsea pensioner who by all means was a great soldier....
Other names I am looking for are NAREYS /NEARYS/ NARYS AND MCCORMACKS AND MCORMICKS
I have been stuck on a MARTIN NAREY WHO MARRIED ANN MCCORMACK...MARTIN BORN AROUND 1800.....MARTIN and Ann had a son called JOHN NAREY who is mine and was born in Philipstown, Dainegan Co Offally .....
If anyone has any information on any of these beautiful Irish people can you please let me know.. its becoming an irritating obsession to find just whereabouts they stem from and probably will be for another twenty years.....lol...
