Derry (Londonderry) / Re: Maggie McCahon of Kilrea
« on: Thursday 27 December 18 22:13 GMT (UK)  »
Roger McGilligan (About 1835-1916) and Jane McCahon (About 1842-1919) from Tirhugh, Swatragh, County Londonderry are my Great-great-grandparents. We're unclear if Jane's maiden name was McCahon or McCaughey.

Yes, her name was probably Margaret. I don't have a year for birth. I'm checking with family on exactly where she lived.

I'm researching a Maggie McCahon of Kilrea. She never married and died in the 1960's. She attended Oxford. I'm trying to understand her relationship to a McGilligan family from Swateragh.

Robert Blake m.Oct./Dec.1911 Coleraine Registration District to Margaret Jane Meehan (in 1919 court testimony supposed to be married Oct.1910 but this is either a case of poor recollection, newspaper misprint or reporter getting slightly muddled)…

Why was Margaret Jane Meehan giving "court testimony" in 1919? What is the source for her court appearance?

Son Robert bc 1879 married Mgt Meehan - he died 1962 - buried in Agh C of I.

I believe Robert Blake and Margaret Jane Meehan to be my great-grandparents.
I recorded Robert's death to be 31 May 1962 but I don't have my sources handy to confirm.
Robert Blake served 12 years in the Royal Inniskilling Fusiliers.
Robert and Margaret Jane married 04 Oct 1911 at St. Patricks, Coleraine, Co. Londonderry
