Re: [CoTyroneMailingList] Kilskeery Parish
k! Hope this helps, Regards, Boyd PS: To List Admins - yet again, I did not get the initial post from Rick. Only Ray replied, I would never have seen it. I use basic gmail so I do not know why this should be happening. And worse still, to reply, I had to do a lot of fiddling with addresses as hitting reply only replied to Ray. https://www.facebook.com/westulstergenealogy/ http://familytrees.genopro.com/boydgray26/Boyd/ On 7 August 2017 at 13:02, Ray 15 wrote: > Hello Rick. > > Ha ha.

Re: [CoTyroneMailingList] Kilskeery Parish
Hello Rick. Ha ha. Wow, I didn’t realise how difficult it is to make contact with them. Okay, here is a link to the MEMBERS page at atavus: http://search.atavus.org/api/v1/members If you scroll down in there, first to D for David JOHNSTON — you can then click on his member name, and click further to send him a message. Similarly, scroll down to G for George ARMSTRONG — and follow the clicks to also send him a message. Hoping that this helps, and will work for you. If not, please get back in touch, as I do have their private email addresses from many years past, and we could try to make contact with them that way. So glad that you have found it to be of interest for you, Rick. All the best. Ray in Oz. === On 7 Aug 2017, at 4:56 am, Rick Smoll wrote: Thanks Ray!

My grandfather came to the states in 1914 at the age of 18. I know that the Morrison farm was sold by the last family member to live on it (or his estate after he died) around 1980. I have not been able to find any current info on the Masterson farm. My questions are: What Methodist church would the family likely have attended around 1900 in the area around Kilskeery? Otherwise, where might I find information regarding what cemeteries my ancestors may be in? Where would records (birth, death, marriage, real estate, etc.) be maintained for Kilskeery Parish? Are there local directories if I want to try and find living relatives? Any and all advice regarding genealogical research while there would be appreciated. Thanks!
