Hello,

I'm trying to find any information about the Mulloys/Molloys from Laghy. Patrick, son of James Mulloy and Ann Ward, left for Canada in the early 1850's. His brothers, I think John and Connolly followed soonafter. I think James Mulloy and Ann Ward were born around 1800 and that's all I have.

Thanks much, grateful for any help.  Kate Mulloy

  • Kate:

    I looked at the Tithe Applotment listings for Drumhome parish but did not locate a Malloy/Molloy/Mulloy record. I looked at the 1858 Griffiths Valuation survey head of household listings and there were a number of Molloy records including a Patrick Molloy and a Margaret Molloy in Laghy but no James or Ann. Roman Catholic church records for this parish begin in 1866 which is too late for your purposes.

  • Thank you, Roger.  I appreciate your efforts. It has been a dead end for me searching for James/Anne, but I'll search on, maybe get lucky.

    My husband's grandmother is named McDonnell, but haven't even started on her line yet! I think they're from Meath, but that's all I know.

    Thanks again,

    Kate
