I am searching for members of my grandmother's family.  My grandmother was born Bridget Ann Clarke 31 Jan 1909. in Lurgylea,  Her parents were James Clarke (1870-1942) and Mary Ann Loughran (1885-1920).  Their other children were James Clarke, Joseph Clarke, Kilda Clarke and Josephine Clarke who I believe all stayed in Lurgylea, Pomeroy area.  The information I have is Josephine Clarke married Patrick Coyle.  They had children but I do  not have any information on them.

    Hi,

     

    Thank you for your message.

     

    I hope that someone recognises the family and makes a connection with you.

     

    Perhaps it may be a good idea to also place this message in a more local forum as some of the people you have mentioned would have been in the area within living memory. Some possible places you could do this are:

    Tyrone Courier: http://www.tyronecourier.uk.com/

    Tyrone Times: http://www.tyronetimes.co.uk/

    www.pomeroyparish.com

     

    I hope this suggestion is helpful.

     

    Kind regards,

  • My family is from Lugylea, Rafferty, and my Grandmother was a Loughran b around 1890.

    i will speak to my father b 1932 and Aunty b 1920 to see if they remember this family.

    still have family in the area and have been there many, many times.

    my email address is rafferty_58@yahoo.com if you want to drop me any further info and I will get back to you with anything I can find out

  • I have spoken to my father and he knows Josephine Clarke and before I could say anything he told me that she was his godmother and married a Packie Coyle.  We may have a hit here as he knows all of the names mentioned, knows where the farm is and that the buildings are still there!!!!

    my Aunty, who is older, may know even more.

    I think you are in the US?  I live in NY but my Aunty and dad live in England.

    drop me an email and we can connect

    got your email and have responded.  I assume it is going directly back to you.

     

    have to say this is rather exciting to find a connection on one of these sites!
