Mother Ellen probably a witness at her marriage


Good find, John

...and born at Tullydonnell (Upper or Lower?), in Raphoe civil parish.

Ellen (Helen) called after maternal grandmother; Hannah called after paternal grandmother; John and Charles called after grandfathers; James; William; and Daniel after Quinn uncles; George after the father from his maternal side; and there was also a Mary Anne on Quinn side. I would guess that Teresa had a sister Ellen.

Daniel is a very strong Quinn name, and goes further back.

If there are any descendants out there I would very much like to hear from them; and thanks again for all the help today
