I am interested in a possible connection of Bridget to the Felix McLernon who married Sarah Rea and lived on the northwest area of Toome, County Antrim, call Millquarter. My records show that this Felix’s father may have been named Robert. We have been to Toome and visited the graves at Carbon Chapel and baptismal records at Our Lady of Lourdes in Moneyglass. Their eldest daughter, Elizabeth married a Carleton and remained in Ireland, three other children, Isabella, Mary and Sarah emigrated to Philadelphia in the USA. Any assistance appreciated. Bob Brett
