Hi AC

I wonder if you could look for the birth of

John McDonnell (McDonald) I know he was 20yrs old at time of his marraige in April 1867 in Belfast to Mary Irvine.
His Father was James McDonnell.


Any info on his parents or siblings would be greatly appreciated.

If you have time could you also do the same for Mary(23yr in1867) please her fathers name was John Irvine.

Thanks in advance
Shelma

Hi again Ac

Would you mind looking up Matthew Keys he was married to Mary St. Laurence.

They lived in Ireland were they had a family. My g g granny was Sarah Keys their daughter she was born in Ireland 1867. I believe Sarah had a sister who also emigrated to Scotland. She had brothers who remained in Ireland.

Sarah married Edward McCann on 17 April 1891 in Port Glasgow. She was 24 at the time. Her mother Mary Keys was already dead when Sarah got married. Matthew is recorded as a gardener.

These are all the details I have on the family

Thank you very much for your kind offer of help.

Sarah

None the Elizabeth I hoped for, but the third one could be a cousin of hers, so many thanks for that avenue to look at.
