Hi All,
I have found a reference to a memorial I want to see, but it seems to be missing and I was wondering,
1. Have you come across similar missing deeds?
2. Have you any tips for how I may find the missing memorial?
The memorial I am looking for is listed in the land index for County Donegal (1739-1810) here:
https://www.familysearch.org/ark:/61903/3:1:3Q9M-CSMQ-2QYG-V?i=54&cat=185720It is down near the bottom left (Gortoquigly – Rea to Hamilton & anr b307 p53 No202977). So I went to book 307 page 53:
https://www.familysearch.org/ark:/61903/3:1:3Q9M-CSJW-J9F8-N?i=32&cat=185720There's no sign of 202977, but there is 202959, so it can’t be far away. Next page is 202978 … where is 202977!?
I’ve tried searching the books above and below 307 too. Below is a list of each book with the memorial numbers closest to 202977. I’ve found 202975, 202976, 202978 and 202979 but not the one I want!
Book 296 = 200616/210015
Book 297 = 197726/
Book 298 = 201837/207811
Book 299 = 200345/209343
Book 300 = 201951/203585
Book 301 = 202940/203023
Book 302 = 202976/203025
Book 303 = 202793/203174
Book 304 = 202956/204565
Book 305 = 202975/202979
Book 306 = 202968/203013
Book 307 = 202959/202978
Book 308 = /203147
Book 309 = /203923
Book 310 = /204480
I’ve also checked the Grantor’s Index for “Rea to Hamilton” and “Hamilton to Rea” deeds, but have not found any more clues.
Thanks,
Gilby
