Re: [CoTyroneMailingList] Leckpatrick Parish Graveyards, Co. Tyrone

2018-03-04 Thread Peter Kincaid
Forgive me, but I had asked Len twice if he could check the same sources
(which I do not have access to) for the Kincaids of Leckpatrick and I am
not sure if a problem occurred with a reply.  On Feb 27 he asked what
period these Kincaids lived and I responded with details of them living in
the mid to latter 1800s.  I then received a message which was simply a
forwarding of his 1st question.  Did part of a message/response get lost?

Best wishes!

Peter

Hello Listers -

You may have notices on the homepage we have created menu items for records
from three neighbouring counties - Derry, Donegal and Fermanagh. We felt
this necessary as many of our ancestors travelled, married, farmed across
these borders.

Here is the first of new files dedicated to one of these counties.
