I lived in Dungiven before we emigrated to Australia - from 1939 till
1955[ before that in Londonderry city] There was a general store in Dungiven
called Patterson Boyles. It closed down during the 1940's. Your Dorrington
was a relative. One of the Boyles m'd a solicitor called ?? Little[Lyttle?]
I have an old postcard of Dungiven that shows Boyles shop.Dungiven is 9
miles from Limavady and 18 from Londonderry.BH
