Valerie,

The website for the Presbyterian Church in Ireland says the current Minister of 
Carnone is the Rev C. McCibbin and that services are at 9.45 on Sundays.

On the Carnowen Rd between Castlefinn & Convoy.

 

According to the PRONI guide to church records, early records for that church 
are as follows:

 

Baptisms, 1834-1984; marriages, 1846-1916.

 

Henry Allen’s second marriage shows that at that date he was living in Carnone 
(Carnowen) townland. His father Hugh was  a weaver.

Labourers and weavers can be particularly difficult to trace as they often 
moved about to follow available work and also sometimes their homes were of too 
low a value to be noted in Griffiths. There are no Allen households listed in 
Carnone in Griffiths in 1858. Indeed there were no Hugh Allens anywhere in 
Donegal that year.

 Hello All,Thanks for adding me to the mailing list!
I am Valerie Stewart from California, USA

I am a descendant of Henry Allen and Barbara Stevenson, folks from Raphoe 
Parish, County Donegal, according to the records we've seen.
I plan to visit County Donegal in September with my family and I am trying to 
determine where exactly my great-great parents lived.
I have some church records  for Henry Allen (born approx. 1814) that record his 
first marriage - April 16, 1838 to Barbara Stevenson, by the Rev. John P. 
Dickey at the Carnone, Presbyterain Church.  Their 4 children were baptized 
there also - from 1840 - 1846. (William, Henry James, Susan and Sarah).
Apparently Barbara died and in November 1850 Henry married Catherine Flood - 
same church/parish location.  After that they left for the United States.  
Henry James Allen was my great- great grandfather who eventually settled in 
Nebraska.

Is the Carnone Presbyterain Church still active?  I would like to be able to 
find it.  The changing of names of locations since that time - early-mid 1800s- 
is proving confusing for me, at least in finding what the current place names 
are.  If you could point me to some local resource/person, I should be glad of 
the help.
 Many Thanks!
