I am visiting Northern Ireland for the first time next month. I want to visit the area of my ancestors, so please, does anyone have the following in their trees? The spelling of Steenson and Stevenson seems interchangeable. I would love to hear from you if you link up with the following:
- William Steenson born 1854 in Ballybrawley – father Joseph
- Joseph Steenson born ?, brother of above
- Margaret Hughes born 1844 married to William (above) at Eglish Parish Church in 1874
- Mary M Steenson born 1885 – Ballybrolly
- Margaret Ann Stevenson (my grandmother) born in 1887 Ballybrawley
- Ann Hughes born 1809 in Fermanagh (maybe aunt of Margaret Hughes)
Does Eglish Parish Church of Ireland still exist? Where is Ballybrolly and Ballybrawley; are they the same place? I cannot find villages with the names of Eglish, Ballybrolly and Ballybrawley. Any help would be appreciated as I do not know much about this family except they came to London by 1881.
