G’Day. Would anyone be able to fill holes in my fairly vague Armagh/Lurgan family history?
I have this information:
My mum’s father was Patrick Joseph Taylor. He died in Australia, aged about 67 (born Jan
1891) in 1959. His parents were John Taylor, “a weaver from Craigmore” and Lizzie
Callaghan. Siblings were David, Johnny, Frank, Eddie and Mary Ellen.
My mum’s mother was born Catherine McDonald, DOB Dec 1892, died in 1960.. She married
Patrick in Dec 1914. Her parents were William McDonald and Rose. A. Murray. Catherine’s
siblings were Sarah and Felix.
I would guess all of my great grandparents were born around 1860-1870 in or around
Lurgan.
Thanks,
Lawrie Lolait.
