Conway and Bradley

Lisa,

The name Michael Conway is pretty common in Co. Londonderry. In the 1901 census there were 8 Michael Conways in the county. A similar number in the 1831 census. You really need to try and find Michael’s parents names from his death certificate or perhaps a naturalisation application, to be sure of locating the right family.

You don’t say where Michael and Annie married but if it was in Ireland I don’t see a suitable marriage in the on-line records.

You have posted this in Ballynascreen parish. If you have information that this is where Michael is from, the RC baptism and marriage records cover the following years:

Ballinascreen (Draperstown) (Derry diocese)
Baptisms, 1836 and 1846-81; marriages, 1834-85;
funerals, 1831-2 and 1848-51.

RC records are mostly on-line on the nli site:

The 1831 census of Ballynascreen has 31 Conway & 209 Bradley households (25 of whom were headed by men named John Bradley).

Thank you. I will try   And because the name is so common it's pretty tough.  I've also seen Michael Conway marrying Nancy Bradley and in a tree that I have DNA with they had Nancy "Annie " Bradley now I wonder if it's not wrong. And the person did not respond to my emails but thank you so much
