McGuinness and McKenna in Knockballyroney and Stramackilroy

[Nimrod58]

Hi

I found the birth cert for my Grandpa which shows he was born in 1907 in Stramackilroy to Edward Joseph McGuinness (an agricultural labourer) and Catherine McKenna.


I'm now looking for further info on the family and would appreciate help finding the marriage for Edward  to Catherine  in Co. Monaghan and birth records for his siblings, which included (I think) Patrick, Margaret, Kathleen and Mimi.


I found a promising 1911 census entry for an Edward and Katie McGuinniss living at 11 Knockballyroney, Tedavnet with the following detail: -

Edward McGuinniss 35 / head / roman catholic / agric labourer / married / born Co Monaghan
Katie   McGuinniss   30 / wife / " /                                                 married / "
Arthur "                    9/son/                                                                       / born Scotland
Minnie "                   8/dau/                                                                       / "
Edward "                 4/son                                                                        / born Co Monaghan
Patrick  "                  3/son                                                                        / born Co Monaghan

Knockballyroney is not far from Stramackilroy so I am hoping the family are the right ones, as I can't find anything else at present for census or BMD.

Can anyone help me with any further information please?

Thank you
