Thank you
Thanks for trying. The only date is Maggie born 1890.
As there were JP's in the family it is not unusual in these times. It's quite a colourful history and just need to sort out the threads!

Thanks for reply.
The spellings are a bit of a problem as some of his daughters use one "n" and others two "n"'s. makes trying to track them a bit awkward at times.
Trying to find the family of Robert SWANN, Esq., of Dromore Lodge, county Monoghan (correct spelling = Monaghan) James is the eldest son of William Swann Esq, Joseph is the second son of Robert Swann Esq, of Dromore Lodge, County Monaghan, married to Dora, fourth daughter of Stuart Boyd Esq, Clontubret, County Monaghan.
and also the family of James SWANN, of Cotehill...one daughter Mary, any sons? Any other brothers of James also.
Cotehill. Coot Hill or Cootehill?? Yes, 3 places!!
A very illusive family, think I'll write a book "The Flight of the Swans!!" or "One flew over the Swan's Nest?"
Then there is the Belfast Thursday July 25th 1867 Death announcement;
James Swann, July 23rd July 1867 at the residence of his Son In Law Mr James Swann of Warrenpoint, James Swann Esq of Crosslea House County Monaghan, deeply and deservedly lamented. His remains will be removed for internment in Clones? this (Thursday) morning the 25th instance.
Luckily God made plenty of N's!!
Think I'll go down to the local park and put up signs....DON'T FEED THE SWANNS!!

Oh..... there was a duplicate post????? Why didn't you tell me!! I thought it was the drink!!
Coot Hill is near Glaslough, Coote Hill is on the Coote Estate, and Cootehill is in Co Cavan.... so imagine all you like!!
Some others of my lot come from Aughnacloy but there are two Augnacloys about 10 miles apart. More from Coolkill and Coolhill....then there is Tydavnet and Tidavnet..so Miss Spellings are easy to find...
Oh why oh why can't they be Jones from Wales????
P.S. I only posted this once.......
