Hello Listers,



My great great grandparents, John Bailey of Aghanloo was married to Sarah McIntire of Aghanloo on February 10, 1844 in Magilligan Roman Catholic Parish.

Witnesses: Thomas McCloskey and Ann Begley



The Bailey family lived in the Townland of Ballybristle (now spelt Balleybrissell), Derry.



According to the Magilligan Roman Catholic Parish records, John and Sarah had 4 children:

William Bailey was baptized November 3, 1844


Sponsors: John Mulholland and Sarah Canning



John Bailey was baptized April 29, 1848

Sponsors: Daniel Mullan and Nancy Bailey



Ann Bailey was baptized March 2, 1851 **Great Grandmother**



Sponsors: Charles Mullen and Rebecca McIvor



Richard Bailey was baptized January 22, 1854

Sponsors: John McIvor and Ann McIvor



It's been a while since I posted this information. Maybe someone might be related, etc.



Also, I purchased a wonderful book called:



Ordnance Survey

Memoirs of Ireland

Parishes of Co. Londonderry III

1831-1835

Roe Valley Lower

Vol II



Edited by Angelique Day and Patrick McWilliams



This book mentions many Townlands and describes what life was like living in these Townlands and life in Derry during 1831-5.



I purchased this book on line at:
