Greetings! I am trying to trace my family back to Fermanagh County. I am currently visiting Ireland and staying in Dublin. I plan to travel to Fermanagh county, so any assistance would be greatly appreciated. I swear my grandmother, Sheila O'Brien, said her grandfather was born in two mile village or something like that in Fermanagh county. Here is some additional information:
Frank McDermott (born in Ireland) married to Catherine Callahan and had a daughter named Anastasia McDermott born in New York 1887.William O’Brien married to Mary Donahue O’Brien and had a son named William O’Brien born in New York in 1891. William O’Brien married Anastasia McDermott and had two daughters named Sheila O’Brien born in New York, New York July 14, 1923 and Guenn Obrien born in New York 1926.

Hi Michael,
There is fivemiletown in Co Tyrone - just next door to Fermanagh - perhaps this is the place you are looking for?
You can BROWSE information on the Counties here:

Remember to post as much information as you can with regard to the people you are researching. The more information you post, the more likely it is that one of our volunteers will be able to advise or assist you. Also include information concerning which sources you may have already used so others may further your search.
Please be patient - as our programme has only begun to rollout across the island of Ireland and volunteers in some areas may not yet be organized.
Kind regards,
