I would be very interested in finding out if there is a Robert Craig b 1817 and his wife Eliza Maginnis Craig list there. Did you put these pictures on Findagrave.com?

The stone was erected by Robert Craig of Carrownaffe who died 19th December 1869 and commemorates his daughter Rebbecca Jane, his wife Eliza Craig, his son Robert, second son George and his daughters Elizabeth Craig and Martha Craig. I am not sure how to post on Findagrave but will look into it. Robert Craig is my great great grandfather and his wife was Eliza Maginnis.

Mary Craig b. 1854 daughter of Robert Craig is my great grandmother on my father’s side. Do you have any other information about her father, Robert Craig? Who were his parents? Have you ever heard anything about this Craig family living in “The Pier House” in Moville? Who did you descend from?
Thanks for any help.

Hi Jane,

Jane thanks for posting the new information.

As you may recall my email was hacked several years ago,  if your email address is still the same as it was five years ago I will email you my new address.

My great grandfather was William Craig, youngest son of Robert and Eliza. Sadly did not know about The Pier House in Moville or would have searched for it. Al C has much more info than I have.
Al C - good to hear from you. I was worried, had forgotten about the problems and posted in the hope you would still be keeping an eye out. Look forward to hearing from you. J

Hi Ann
I have checked through my notes and can't find anything about them living at Pier House.
I suppose it is possible. Where did you find the mention?

I don't have a reference for the pier house, only through my mother's research and hearsay. Do you know anything more about Robert Montgomery's family--who his father was? I know there was a well know preacher in Moville named Montgomery but I don't know if we are related or not. I was also interested in any information of his wife, Eliza Mcginnis born in 1822? Thanks!
