Hello,

I know this is along shot but I have a William Mccluskey born Ireland married Agnes McAdam also born Ireland. William was born abt 1815 and died 1867 his parents are listed as John McCluskey and Helen Toole. William and his family lived in Rutherglen, Lanarkshire.

Hi HS,

Could be? The dates are compatible at least, your William in 1815 and my Hugh in 1806.

With MonicaL's fantastic help I've managed to (educated) guess that Hugh was born, or at least lived, in Banagher parish in Derry. And that's about the sum total of my knowledge of Hugh! Do you have any idea what the best approach in Ireland is?

Cheers

One mystery solved and three new ones the result! Sound familiar?

With the help of MonicaL and others managed to find my initial answers, best if I ask the others in separate posts:
Where did Anne Morrison and Hugh McLusky really come from and what are the circumstances surrounding Ann's death in the City Poorhouse?

Thanks to all
