Drum, Co. Monaghan

[DeirdreMc]

I am looking for a birth record for a presbyterian from Drum would this town be attached to a Parish (do presby. records do it this way?) or can I just contact the current Presby. church in the town and hope they have the records on site?
thank you

Hello Deirdre,

www.proni.gov.uk/records/church.htm - There is an interesting paragraph about Presbyterian records in this article. It appears that you may have to look in two or three places to obtain the birth record that you require (although it may depend upon the date of the record). You do not mention your location. Would you like me to see if this record is at the PRO in Belfast ?

Christopher--you nice person!!
If you would look that would be fantastic!!! I'm a Dubliner now living in Ohio and I would really appreciate it.

--her birth year was 1871 on her headstone
--the only Margaret Campbell I could find born in that year was in Drum although we know she also had relatives in Carrickmacross --I think she later married my g-grandfather  in Carrickm. Jul 25, 1893.
Thank you thank you
Deirdre

Hi Deirdre

have you had a look at this Monaghan site? It gives the address for the Presbyterian Historical Society and some general information on family research.
