Canada Lookup Request / Patrick Loughrey from Scotland via Derry to Halifax
« on: Friday 28 October 16 19:17 BST (UK)  »
GG Uncle Patrick Loughrey was born in 1892 in Hutchestontown near Glasgow, brought up in Ballydullaghan, Count Derry Northern Ireland and emigrated to Canada via Halifax in 1922. Believe he worked on a farm for the rest of his life possibly in Alberta but know he was heading west. No info from him or whether he had a family etc. Wondered if anyone knew of him?

Canada Lookup Request / Patrick Loughrey
« on: Tuesday 18 June 13 20:38 BST (UK)  »
Patrick Loughrey, aged 27, left County Derry, Northern Ireland, in 1926 and sailed on the Regina, White Star Dominion line, to Halifax arriving on 12th April 1926. His emigration documents stated he was a farm labourer. According to family history no word was heard from him since then, any information would be really grateful. No family left with any recollection unfortunately. Prior to his departure from Ireland he was staying with Jas Shiels in Kilrea. Trying to pull the family tree together and I have no information on Patrick other than he was born in Glasgow, classed himself as Irish Race on emigration form and his father lived in Ballydullaghan.

Derry (Londonderry) / Stillborn Neely twins
« on: Tuesday 20 December 11 14:54 GMT (UK)  »
Grandparents, Alexander (Sandy) and Jeannie (Jane) Neely were parents to twin babies who were stillborn. The year of birth approximately between 1935 and 1939. The family lived in Tamnyrankin near Swatragh. Apparently the children had a burial but no-one seems to know their names or resting place.

Does anyone know how I can find out please?

Thank you

Looking for anyone with any knowledge of the Austin family. Patrick Austin (G Grandfather) was born in 1844, lived in Kentstown, and married Caroline Matthews. His father was Peter Austin who lived in Walterstown and married (Judith?) McNamara. I believe Peter owned land in Slanduff (Griffiths valuation).

« on: Thursday 20 January 11 19:50 GMT (UK)  »
Alexander Laughery, born 1859 or 1861 married Annie McCabe in 1878. Annie also went by the name Nancy. I believe Annie may have come from Antrim as her father, Patrick, was born there in 1831. They lived around Tirhugh, Swatragh. Info on the Laugherys or McCabes would be greatly appreciated.
