Re birth dates,

In researching the family history, I have noticed, at least in the case 
of notable ancestors, that the date of death is often known precisely 
but birth dates are not - only years are available and even then one 
must be circumspect. Apparently one's birth was unimportant as infant 
survival rates were so low. Baptism gives a clue, but then may be long 
after the birth, from a few weeks or months to maybe 20 years (in one case)!

As others have explained, Munterevlin/Munterdevlin is a general area up the
west side of Lough Neagh. Mainly in Counties Tyrone & Derry. You can see
what RC parishes there are in the general area from the attached two maps:



https://www.johngrenham.com/browse/counties/rcmaps/tyronerc.php#maps/



https://www.johngrenham.com/browse/counties/rcmaps/derryrc.php#maps/



If you click on each parish you will see what records exist. A problem you
face is that not all parishes have records for 1850. For example, Ardtrea
has a gap in its baptisms from 1843 to 1854. So it’s possible that the
reason you have been unable to find your Felix is because there is no
record to find.


Bear in mind too that in the 1800s most Irish people didn’t celebrate
birthdays and often didn’t know exactly when they were born. If officialdom
later asked for a date of birth it wasn’t unknown for them to just make one
up. So the date you have may not be quite correct. Do look a year or two
either side of the information you have. And if you do find a possible
record it may only be the baptism date, not the date of birth. Not all
records in 1850 included date of birth.  With RC baptisms the baptism date
should be very close to the birth date but again some flexibility is
required.



Possibly DNA testing may be a way of matching with others who have
additional information about where the family originate. Family Tree DNA
reportedly has more people with Ulster roots than any other company. That
obviously increases the chances of finding a match. You might want to try
them or, if you have already tested, you can transfer your results to them
for no fee.

Hello Francesca,

There is no location or townland within Co Tyrone known as Munterevlin.
Referring to the Alphabetical Index to the Townlands and Towns,
Parishes and Baronies of Ireland (compiled in 1851 and still current),
it is not recorded in any of the twenty-six counties, North or South.
How accurate do you believe your record to be?

Just found this online -
https://www.culturenorthernireland.org/article/1185/a-brief-history-of-ardboe

A History of Ardboe Parish, Co Tyrone
The old monastic church at Ardboe was founded by St Colman in the year 590.
On the maps that were drawn up for the purposes of the plantation of Ulster
in 1609, Ardboe appears as Munterevlin iochtar and Munterevlin vachtar,
meaning the upper and lower O’Devlin territory. The lands belonging to the
church at the time of the plantation were passed to the Protestant
Archbishop of Armagh, and the secular lands came into possession of one of
the stewards, Lord Octiltree.

Hello Francesca,

There is no location or townland within Co Tyrone known as Munterevlin. 
Referring to the Alphabetical Index to the Townlands and Towns, Parishes and 
Baronies of Ireland (compiled in 1851 and still current), it is not recorded in 
any of the twenty-six counties, North or South. How accurate do you believe 
your record to be?

Subject: [CoTyroneMailingList] I'm trying to find my great grandfather Felix 
John Quinn

I’m trying to find my grandfather Felix John Quinn born in Munterevlin, 
Ireland. I have his birthdate as April 7, 1850. He died in New York in 1896.

I’ve probably spent over 60 hours pouring through documents or old microfiche 
but to no avail.

He was Roman Catholic. I do know that but I still can’t find anything. Any 
ideas?

Thanks so much,

Francesca Piantadosi
