Hi Mary Theresa and Georgieknits!

I had sent personal messages to you both a while ago but didn't notice you hadn't enough posts to receive this. I think you have to have posted 3 times. Anyway,I have posted this in order to complete my husbands tree. His name is Philip Docherty. His grandfather was Stephen Lynch, brother to Ciss and  Mary Ellen (and the rest!).Stephen went to Scotland and married a girl from Donegal called Mary Carroll.We live in Australia but have been to The Aran islands. We met Ciss then and Harry Stocker and his wife happened to be there . Is he your uncle?

If either of you post again, I can send a personal message with more info.
Looking forward to hearing from you.
Monica :)

I am so happy to get both your replies. Sorry it has taken so long to reply, Georgieknits.
I think our connection is through Stephens sister Margaret. I would like to share more info
so I will try to send a PM to you both.

Antrim / Isabella McDonnell
« on: Tuesday 11 February 14 06:02 GMT (UK)  »
Hi, I am trying to get the death record of my G,G grandmother Isabella ( Belle) McDonnell nee Berry.
She was married to Allan McDonnell (d.1864, he was in his 60's), they lived in Gortrighy, Rasharkin. She survived Allan but I don't know by how many years. The witness to Allan's death was their son James.
Anyone able to help?

Antrim / Berry-McDonnell

I am looking for any information about my gggrandmother, Isabelle Berry. She was from the Toomebridge area.
I don't know her birth date but it would be approx. 1805. I think her father's name might be Luke, as one of her sons was called this. I have been told she was an only child.
She married Allan McDonnell from Rasharkin, he lived close to the Bann river. Alan sailed his "cot", fishing along the river. This may be how he met her.
I would love any info about the Berry family.
Thanks

Hi Mike,

Thanks for replying. We always wondered why Henry left Arklow for Aran, now we know!
We were lucky enough to meet Ciss over 20 years ago when we visited Aran. How I wish
I had asked her family history then.

All these little pieces help to build the picture of life on Aran. I have seen the movie, many years ago.

Thanks again.

to Sarah Murray.John was from Rasharkin (Gortahar) but I don't know where Sarah was from
and where the marriage took place (they were R.C). It was around 1857.
If anyone can help, would be great.
