Wow, thanks for sharing.  I'll have to look up the historical society before my next trip (May this year) to see what they have.  The names you mentioned are very familiar to me the family had land in Cornakinnegar as well as Kilmore and central Lurgan and had lands elsewhere rented from the Brownlowes.  Good luck with the search, the souterrain is a really good sign.

Isabella's older brother, Joseph, 1850-1907, was my great-grandfather. Their parents were David & Ellen Gallery( née Doran ).

Ellen Gallery died 27 May 1884 at Donegreagh [sic]. Aged 67 yrs.

Good evening

I would have loved to have been involved in the archeological dig.  Would have been fascinating, I’m sure.

Can anyone tell me When was the first building on the site at Donegreagh Farm?
Also, does anyone have any information on the Casey Family that Isabella married into?
Their family home was Stormount, on The Kiln Road in Lurgan.  Would love to know when this house was built. Not sure where to find any of this info?
Thanking you in anticipation
Siobhan

Thanks for the info.
Got to see the area where Stormount would have been.
It was demolished to make way for Craigavon.
What a waste of such a historical building.
The Silverwood Hotel, previously known as The Country Club, was built on the site.
