Dear List,
Recently I managed to contact the List via John Caughey and was subscribed.
Since then nothing has appeared. I had intended lurking a while to see the
lie of the land but as nothing seems to be going on at the moment may I
please ask your possible assistance.
Some years ago I researched my wife's family who were living in Gateshead
and were born in Ireland. My problem is trying to learn where in Ireland.
Extracts from the 1891 Census. Gateshead. Durham. St James.
Researched by Joseph Armstrong,
M/F 41821+and 41823-

William Mc Caughey, Head, Marr, 47, Tailor, Ireland.

David Son, S, 18, General labr, "
James Mc Mullen, Bdr, " 45, "" "

This last William is probably the son of the above William. There was a
third William, younger brother of the above Charles aged 1 month. born 1900
and he was my wife's father.
Can anyone suggest where to look next please?
Sincerely, Joe Armstrong of Gateshead..
