Hello All,

'Tis been a long while since I've posted my research interests, so here's hoping I can connect with others.

David ADAMS born abt 1804 d 15 Mar 1878 aged 74 of Primity Townland, Parish of Glendermott and wife Catherine ? d 25 Aug 1877 both buried Old Glendermott.
(would love to know Catherine's surname and their date of marriage)

some of my research to date includes

Irish Flax Growers 1796
Adams, David Clondermot

The Tithe Applotment Books
David Adams- Derry- Clondermot- Primity-1834

Griffith's Valuation
Adams, David Parish : Clondermot : Primity


David & Catherine's daughter Margaret, b abt 1837 married Andrew DUNN 28 Oct 1858 Parish Church of Glendermott. Both were full age at marriage. Witnesses to the marriage were William ADAMS and James DUNN. married by license and David Babington officiated.


Andrew DUNN inherited "Foyleview Farm" in Ballykelly Londonderry from his Aunt- Margaret ROBINSON. Margaret's husband was William. And it appears that William's father was John ROBINSON. John Robinson burial 27 Apr 1830 of near the Canal, Ballykelly. (Tamlaght Finlagan Church of Ireland Registers.)

I am very interested to find other siblings of Margaret ADAMS, (possibly William, who witnessed marriage?) and how Aunt Margaret ROBINSON relates to Andrew DUNN. He was born abt 1830 in Ballyskeagh C. Tyrone to John DUNN & Elizabeth ? Could the ROBINSON's have been on Andrew's mother's side, and originated in Tamlaght Finlagan?

I would *greatly* appreciate any help locating these families.

Thank you~ Teena
