I am looking for my GG Grandfather Andrew MCGinley, and his brothers Charles and Patrick who came to the US in the 1830's.  They left their brother Hugh and maybe others.  His father was John.  I have the town Beltony, but I am not sure.  I will be in Ireland in September and hope to find family.

Thank you so much

  • Hi,

    Cloughaneely is in Donegal which is in the province of Ulster.  McGinley is one of the Clans of Donegal from which I am also descended although the names you gave do not relate to any on my family tree.

    Although I am not able to help you directly, I can refer you to the McGinley Clan website and the McGinley Clan origins.

    http://www.mcginleyclan.org/clanorigins.htm

    You could try to contact the clan with your query.  

    Also, have a look at the Donegal Genealogy Resources website

    I wish you all the best in your research.

    Kind regards,

    Eimer Shea
