This little girl is the only one of my ancestors, back to 1800, not born in south Ulster.
It brings to mind another little girl, her great-grandmother, who was born in India about 1794 and married 11 years later.
Starting from the first line (McWilliam of Monaghan) those family groups above are my maternal ancestors; those below paternal.
Apart from the McWilliams' each family group is defined by a woman ie. Clugston by my mother, Patricia Clugston; Charles & Henry by my maternal and paternal grandmothers, Maud Charles & Elsie Henry (see photograph in title) &c. I have very much more information about my paternal lines.
I have also created pages for Holly Lodge, Monaghan, the house where I grew up & Rathfarnham, Dublin where I live now.
Fully sourced genealogical trees can be found in Family Trees.
Many of these sources are gathered together under Census Records (1901/11 censi, Griffiths Valuation, Tithe Applotment Books etc), Certificates (Register of Births, Marriages & Deaths and Church Records), Legal Papers (Deeds, Wills and Marriage Settlements), Newspaper Extracts & Qualifications (Legal, Medical, Church and University records)
More detailed family and individual information can be found under Biographies, Family Stories, Letters & Manuscripts.
