My grandmother was a Drury. I have found most of her family was from Tibohine (Parish) Ratra (homeland). If you would be interested, I can pass on any further info. I might find. I did find a "Martin" while searching but can't remember where it was. I have an Ancestry.com account and have found lots of info there.
Also, I am curious if anyone knows any information about an area (town??) called Fre. This was found on an old map of the above area.
Thank you,
Sukie

Hi Sukie, I am looking at old queries. I suggest you post your information on the parish page on this site and you could also search out the Roscommon Genealogy private Facebook group, mind you I not sure it is verey active as I do not see a lot of posts.
I cannot see anyplace for Fre but Frenchpark comes up and I wonder if it is a shortened version, you could ask the Roscommon Library, they usually have a local history section, civil divisions for Ireland can be seen here but remember they are the civil areas of admin and sometimes referred to by another name locally or relgiious areas of parishes may vary a little etc
Regards
