Dorothy
If you have time, would you check if there are any marriages and or Births for;( all are Catholic)
The following would likely be in Armagh City:
1. William LOUGHRAN
2. John LOUGHRAN
3. Owen LOUGHRAN
4. Thomas LOUGHRAN
5. Bridget LOUGHRAN
7. Eugene LOUGHRAN


The following would be in Loughgilly area: Drumnahunshin/Drumnahuncheon/White Cross- also all Catholic:
1. Michael MARKEY married to Mary MALLON
2. Sarah MARKEY
3. Margaret MARKEY
4. Mary MARKEY
5, Peter MARKEY
6. John MARKEY
7. Patrick MARKEY

Also looking for confirmation on the parents of Michael Markey. Family stories say his mother was a McKeown. dont have a birth date for him but guess it was about 1845 to 1865. My grandmother, Catherine, was one of the younger children and born in 1892.

Thanks so much!
