Do you have these two children for John Wilson & Mary Jane Haughton/Houghton:
2. Margaret Frances born 8 Apr.1880 Loughnafin, Loughadian, Down
I checked under Co. Down for Loughnafin and Loughadian and only found Loughadian in Banbridge area. Glad you solved the mystery of where Loughnafin is.
Away sorting out DNA matches... I may be gone for some time many years!

Hi Da1951,
Welcome to Rootschat.
Everything has been very quiet on the family history front for ages, I just took a look at Rootschat today.
This is fantastic news we are obviously first cousins. I have sent you a personal message just before I read this posting.

I am more than happy to share information with you.

Thanks

Hi Aghadowey,
I have looked at the link you supplied earlier today and I have fornd some information on Loughnafin.
This is what I found which mentions an area called Rockfield which my Mother says was the area where she was born, have attached the link so you can see it.

Loughnafin Rockfield 378 Cavan Tullyhunco Killashandra Cavan Ulster 
Margaret Francis is correct as I have just found out this week she married Andrew Baird.
John Wilson & Mary Jane Haughton's children were Walter, Charles Haughton (my Mother's father), Georgina, Louie and Lilian (married W.T Baird) as well as Margaret Francis. Apparently 2 sisters married 2 brothers.
Eliza Jane born 9 May 1877 Co.Cavan - spoke to my Mother today and although this is a name she does not remember she thinks it is very likely that there was another child called Eliza Jane.

Thanks again for your help.

Margaret

 :) :)

Mr Andrew Wrenn of Glenageary Co Dublin purchased the estate known as Rockfield or Loughnafin Co Cavan in the 1870s. Wrenn was born in Co Cavan. he put his brother Patrick as caretaker of the run down mansion and the caretakers house. When Wrenn died in 1908 he bequeated the land etc to his two nieces... perhaps there were families living on the land
