Many thanks Len and Jim for your interest.

 

I have her birth using Findmypast which has Catholic baptisms – original 
images. Mary Ann, daughter of Michael McQuade and Elizabeth Crossey was 
baptised 22 August 1824, with witnesses Jacobus (James) McQuade and Alice 
McQuade, in the parish of Dungannon,. Clontyclea.

Michael and Elizabeth (Isabella) were married in February 1820 at Clonfeacle. 
No details of their parents ☹

They also had a daughter, Sarah, baptised on 17 October 1821. A couple of other 
possibilities, but haven’t been able to find anything with certainty – yet!

 

I have certainly found a variety of spelllings. One of Mary Ann’s sons, John 
Clark, registered her death in Scotland with the maiden name of McHaig – took 
me a long time to learn it was McQuade (confirmed by DNA).

 

Great fun!

 

Dorothy

Hello Dorothy,

 

Many thanks for your thanks: I continue to hope that researchers find my 
postings and submissions useful and interesting. Many family names in Ireland 
were recorded as they were heard and spelt phonetically. During my years of 
researching and transcribing I have found McQuade spelt variously:  McQaid, 
McQuead, McWade, McWaid and possibly more. All spellings may be located through 
a search on CTI http://www.cotyroneireland.com/

 

All good wishes,

Hi Len 

Thank you for this (and for all your posts). I scrolled through in the fond 
hope of finding a McQuade ancestor. I didn’t really expect to as I knew fromRC 
baptisms that Mary Ann McQuade, from Clontyclay, Clonfeacle, was baptised in 
1822. But she married John Clark in Monifieth, Scotland, and the Clarks were 
staunch Presbyterians. It must have been difficult for her to raise her 
children outside her faith. Even into the 20th century these Clarks were 
scathing of Roman Catholics.

Hello Gordon,

Very few Presbyterian congregations in Ireland kept burial registers and only 
just a handful in Ulster. All families of a parish historically had burial 
rights in the parish graveyard which was in most cases, attached to the parish 
church (Church of Ireland); it was not until the 1860s-80s that Catholics and 
Presbyterians gained their own graveyards. Generally, the C of I burial 
register did not include the deaths and burials of Catholic and Presbyterian 
families. See my file http://www.cotyroneireland.com/misc/bells.html where the 
rector of Stewartstown, Co. Tyrone refused the church bell be tolled during the 
burial of a Presbyterian
