Hello,

I "lose" my family from Duncormick after Griffith's Valuation in 1853. There are no vital records for any of them after that in Duncormick, and they are nowhere to be found in the 1901 census.  If they did NOT emigrate to the USA, is there a common place where most Duncormick families went?  Dublin? Belfast? England? Scotland? Canada? Australia? Or all of the above? I am hoping you can point me in the right direction for where they might have gone, hopefully, by telling me where other families from that area might have gone.  Thank you in advance.  Ellen

  • Dear Ellen:

    Thank you for your query to the Ireland Reaching Out message board and welcome to the site.

    You don't say what surnames you are looking for in the Duncormick area so I am unable to do any research for you.  However, there is an interesting thread on the Ancestry boards that discusses the emigration of some of the Duncormick families and it appears that St. Louis, Missourri is one place where several families went.

    If you would like to add any further information to your query, please feel free to do so.

     

    Kind regards,

    Jane.
