Fermanagh / Re: Clogh Church of Ireland early parish records, Co. Fermanagh/Monaghan
« on: Tuesday 14 February 23 22:59 GMT (UK)  »
Also just wanted to point out that Clogh Parish straddles the Co Fermanagh/Co Monaghan border.  Therefore records might actually be transcribed on IGP but under Co Monaghan.

A trick for searching these records is to go to Google and use the following:

site:http://www.igp-web.com/igparchives/ire/monaghan/ "<search_word>"

Replacing <search_word> with the surname or even Christian name and Surname.  You can even search by townland if you know that.  Can then replace monaghan with fermanagh to do a search in different county.

Just been looking at some of the older stones in the graveyard on IGP and there are burials in the early 1800's, so you are probably correct.  This one which is transcribed, is from 1816.

If I remember and in the area, I'll nip over and see if there is a date stone.  Might give an idea of when it was built.  It does look older than St Marks, from the photographs at least.

Is there something there you are looking for?

There are a lot of places called Clogh/Clough, are you sure they were talking about this one in particular?

This is it on Google Streetview - https://goo.gl/maps/zFWviiqG2G6s23rs5

I know the OP hasn't replied, but might help someone else answer the same question some day.

It might be Cloghtogle Mountain to the North of Lisbellaw.  Townland of Coolbuck, Parish of Cleenish Parish, Registry District of Lisbellaw, Barony of Tirkennedy.

I think Holy Trinity - Clogh Parish was a chapel of ease for Clones Parish and only opened about the same time as St Marks - Aghadrumsee Parish in approx 1820.

Records prior to the openings of those would be at Clones Parish Church, Clones, Co Monaghan, it is just off the diamond in Clones town.  Here is a link on Google Maps - https://goo.gl/maps/pcjiLv2eKgMQ6U5Y6

There are some marriages transcribed on IGP, see https://www.igp-web.com/IGPArchives/ire/fermanagh/church.htm under Clogh

Fermanagh / Townlands and place names
« on: Monday 13 February 23 21:49 GMT (UK)  »
Hi,

I map for an organisation called the Open Street Map and have been involved in mapping the  townlands in Fermanagh for almost a decade.  This information is then made available to the general public via sites like townlands.ie

Over the years we have come to find named parts of townlands (we called them sub-townlands) or even lost townlands that people used to use in records etc, but aren't found on modern maps.  I would like to find them and put them back on the map where they belong.

If you have any placenames that are not already on townlands.ie, please mention them here and where you think they might be.

Thanks

Oh thanks for that info.

I used to have another account on here, but I seem to have lost access to it as no longer have the email address assigned to it.

Sorry for posting on this thread, but I found it while researching Isabella Hutchinson.  As the original poster has not posted in a long time I fear he may have passed away, but maybe his family or his friend from England might come across this thread.

Please message me if you know anything about the descendants of Ernest Merritt and Isobella Hutchinson.
