I am seeking information on Charlotte Dunn b. 7/1794 in Aughalurcher, County Fermanagh. I am looking for parents and marriage record. I have found in the cemetery of the Aghavea Church & cemetery the graves of a John Dunn of Lisduff, also 2 wives and a son. Could this be her father & mother?? I have no information on the Dunn family.
Charlotte married Rutherford Cathcart Hamiliton Porteus 20/11/1817 possibly in that church also. Are there records available for that church? Rutherford born 1/7/1787 in Devonish Parish.
Charlotte died 23/7/1864 in Maguiresbridge, Aughalurcher. She is buried in Christ Church along with her husband and 2 daughters. I have records of their burials.
I will be grateful is you can find any information on Charlotte.

Bonnie,
The earliest records for Aghavea Church of Ireland start in 1815. There’s a copy in PRONI in Belfast. They don’t appear to be on-line anywhere. If you are unable to go yourself, you could employ a researcher. Researchers in the PRONI area: http://sgni.net

Thank you for answering I live in the US and not able to do anything in person. How early can I find Griffith Valuation records?

Griffiths Valuation for Aghavea was produced in 1862. You can find the records on this site:

The Griffiths records then continue forward up to around 1930 on the PRONI website. They are the Valuation Revision records. You have to search them by townland (there’s no name search facility).

Prior to 1862 there aren’t many records. The tithe applotment records for 1832 list 4 Dunn farms in Aghavea:
