I am looking for a James Veighey b. 1887 in Dunaweel, Cavan. He later went on to marry Isabella Montgomery who is somehow connected to General Bernard law Montgomery. The link is possibly brother and sister.

Thanks for replying to Jane who was trying to do some research on my behalf.
My Grandfather was callled James Veighey b 1887 from Dunaweel, Killeshandra, Cavan, he was married to Margaret Morrisson. They married in 1919 in a place called Corlespratten (not sure of spelling). I have a copy of the marriage certificate of my grandparents which states that Isabella Montgomery was the mother of James , Isabella was married to James Veighey do not have any dates of birth for Isabella or James, only that my Grandfather James was born in 1887 (the same year as General Montgomery).
My father keeps telling me that his father James (b 1887)was a cousin of General Montgomery. The only information is that Isabella was related to General Montgomery. Isabella was married twice firstly to my great grandfather James Veighey and then after he died she married someone called with the surname Gibson. Photos of 'Monty' - General Montgomery are the image of my Father's brother William James Veighey born around 1920.

Any help would be appreciated.
Many Thanks

I am still searching.
Do you have any info on Henry Hutchinson Montgomery's siblings (General Montgomery's father) as I am wondering if the Isabella Montgomery I am looking for may be a sibling of his.

Thanks
